I have two Panasonic PVRs, my first was A SD PVR, DMR EX773, then later
I got a HD one BWT 800.
I sent some DVDs to a friend overseas earlier in the year and she
problems with one. I have some more to send so I wanted to check on a second PVR to be sure they are OK (I usually use a very old DVD player
to check).
I have been trying to change the code in the DMR EX773 remote control (I
had been using on the BWT 800). But I cannot get it to chand (I have
done it previously).
I must be doing something silly but can't figure what. Anyone familiar
with these who can suggest something I might have overlooked!

According to the manual for the EX77EB (which can't be much different to
the EX773), this is how you pair a remote to another PVR:
If your remote currently controls the BWT800, point it at the EX773 and
press any key on the remote (I use the "Status i" button because that
can't do any harm). The display on the PVR should show DVDn where n is a number. Make a note of the number.
On the remote, while pressing and holding OK, press and hold the number button corresponding to n for more than 5 seconds, then let both buttons
go. Then press OK briefly.
The EX773 should then respond to the remote.

Thanks I have the handbook and have done it in the past but not
working this time. I am obviously doing something wrong.
Have you got weak batteries? A quick press might operate, but holding
buttons for seconds might exhaust the power available.

The instructions for mine (a different model) are ambiguous: it's not
clear whether you are supposed to press OK again for 5 seconds after
pressing OK and the number together, before pressing OK briefly. Might
be worth a try.

For the record
The remotes are the original Panasonic ones and batteries new.
I similarly thought the instructions rather ambiguous so did a few permutation of alternatives.

Reading this again, do you mean that you're trying to change the Region
Code of your player?

No, he's trying to change the channel used to communicate between the
remote and the player. You might need to do this if you had two
players in the same room so that one remote controls one and the other
the other.
