In Reply to: Pioneer LD remote control question.. posted by Gordy on January 22, 2003 at 01:05:29:
I'm a little unclear about your predicament. Do I understand that you only have a learning remote and no Pioneer remote? But doesn't your learning remote have a "learn" function whereby you can take the codes by registering from the other remote? If so, all you need do is to borrow a remote from someone. All the Pioneer LD players seem to use the same codes for the same functions. I had 3 at one stage and, although some remotes had more functions, all used the same for FF etc. Maybe the latest Pioneer DVD etc players use these same old codes so I'd try copying them onto your learning remote for starters.Another suggestion is to post on to the board at

Someone there who lives near you might be prepared to lend a remote.

Thanks for the tip on remote central.
When I talked to an engineer at Pioneer,he said all that would work was the remote intended for the LD-V6010.He also said a learning remote wouldn't work because I couldn't program the LD-V6010's codes into it.
Pioneer doesn't list a 6010, but has an LD-V4400 and an 8000 series.They require remote model # RU-V103.
From looking at www.goodguyspartsearch.com (a retail outlet here in the states),I find the 6010 has a different remote... model RU-V6000.
Do you think these are all interchangeable?
I'm puzzled by the reply you got from the Pioneer techo. My PRONTO has learned all the Pioneer codes without problem so I cannot understand his reply. I might be wrong but I would be surprised if different Pioneer products, particularly LD players had different codes. My experience is that all similat products of a manufacturer use the same codes. Panasonic at one time had two sets of codes for their VCRs to allow for use of 2 recorders but all the JVC recoders here use exactly the same codes (which is a real nuisance) and the Sony TVs all use the same codes - that covers a 19" TV and a 32" monitor. I suspect different manufacturers use an allocated set of frequencies and stick to them to avoid conflicts between brands.
