Usually Mitsub. vcr's have an a/b switch. Try changing the setting. It should, at least, stop the vcr from coming on.
Digital Cable Remote turns on Wrong unit
I have an AT&T Digital Cable box connected to my Sony TV. I have a Mitsubishi HS-U780 connected to the TV for movies only (no TV connection). When I use the Digital Cable box remote control, the power switch turns on the TV (okay) but it also turns on the Mitsubishi VCR (not okay). How can I fix either the Digital Remote or the VCR box not to turn on when when using the Digital remote control? Do I have to unplug the VCR from the wall to fix this problem? Help. thanks
