    I am having trouble playing back some KvCD's on the Desay DS-5701 DVD player. Some play back perfectly, some are vertically off center (about a third of the way down the TV screen) and black and white. I did some research, and apparently there's a way to fix this. The problem is in the DVD player, not the burned KvCD's. BUT- I lost the freekin' remote to the DVD player and the 3-in-One Universal remote that I have doesn't list Desay in the codes list. I've spent some time searching the web for the codes so I can program the remote to work with the DVD player, and all I found was a text file at hifi-remote.com that I can't figure out. Someone hooked up an IR reader to a PC and scanned the DVD player, and the text file was generated. If you need to see it, here's the link: http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload.php?action=download&file_id=1309 This link takes you directly to a download confirmation for the text file. I promise it's not malware ;) Anyway- if someone can make sense of the text file, or can tell me what the codes are or where to get 'em, I'd really appreciate it. Here's a link to the .pdf file of the manual for my remote control: http://support.radioshack.com/support_video/69065.htm if it helps at all.... Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

    could someone get a similar output from a player that there is a known uei code? maybe then by comparing at least a close estimate to a uei code could be found.

    It doesn't matter anymore. I bought a new DVD player with DivX playback compatibility :D

    I never did get a remote to work successfully with my DS-5701. I know they were originally sold by Radio Shack. You can also try the Desay web site.... when I tried it about 6 months ago, I got no-where. They responded to my email telling me to go to the retailer.
    Good luck!
