Howdy,

friend has an old hard drive media player like this one.
the thin remote is knackered - completely dead.

what option are there to replace it ??
outside of emailing the company - are other off-the-shelf/argos remotes any good for these units ?
are these small media remotes a certain frequency ??

can a usb remote work - like used for media pc's ?

nothing coming up on ebay.

thx
k

well there are learning remotes that you program by pointing the original remote at the learning remote and it "learns" that way, but if your original remote is dead i don't think you have many options other than contacting the manufacturer and seeing if they sell it as a separate item.

why not just do a google search on the remotes part number, and find one and buy it? im sure you will be able to find a place that sells remotes.

thanks folks,

just found some-one at work with the same type media drive and remote. Also found the company who supply them but for ?30.
Would prefer to get a more sturdy learner remote for ?30 than the small flimsy ones that broke.

so- any recommendations on a leaner remote ? about the ?30 mark.

thanks for the help
