cblake journeyman Registered: 01/10/2002 Posts: 79	Anyone know where I could find either of these? I'd prefer to have the rio remote but would settle for the kenwood style. _________________________ 40GB Mk2 [blue]blue[/blue] 90000660 Driveless Mk2a [blue]blue[/blue] 120001040

smu old hand Registered: 30/07/2000 Posts: 879 Loc: Germany (Ruhrgebiet)	Correct me if I'm wrong, but that is the Kenwwod remote, right? Nothing wrong with that, but your post first looked to me as if you were referring to the rio remotes. cu, sven _________________________ proud owner of MkII 40GB & MkIIa 60GB both lit by God and HiJacked by Lord

cblake journeyman Registered: 01/10/2002 Posts: 79	well I am looking for Rio Remotes but I doubt that I will find any. So the kenwood remotes will probably have to do Calvin _________________________ 40GB Mk2 [blue]blue[/blue] 90000660 Driveless Mk2a [blue]blue[/blue] 120001040

smu old hand Registered: 30/07/2000 Posts: 879 Loc: Germany (Ruhrgebiet)	It might work with the riocar/empeg, but you won't be able to access all the functions usually available on the remote. Most important thing you will miss is the search functionality (since there are no digit/letter buttons). cu, sven _________________________ proud owner of MkII 40GB & MkIIa 60GB both lit by God and HiJacked by Lord

tfabris carpal tunnel Registered: 20/12/1999 Posts: 31600 Loc: Seattle, WA	Sissy and Rev... I'm guessing that remote was from a different product in the Rio line, and that its code set won't work by default on the Rio Car players. Some futzing with the ir translations in Hijack would make it work, I'm sure, but like Sven said, you still wouldn't be able to do alphanumeric searches with it (primary reason to own a remote). My question to the person at the very top of this thread: Why don't you already have a remote for your player? _________________________ Tony Fabris

Daria carpal tunnel Registered: 24/01/2002 Posts: 3937 Loc: Providence, RI	My question to the person at the very top of this thread: Why don't you already have a remote for your player? My spare doesn't have one; I got the remoteless unit from TTony. On the other hand I already had a spare remote, but I could see cases where you'd want to leave a remote in your office or something, and one in your car, and one doesn't sit well in 2 places.

revlmwest addict Registered: 05/06/2002 Posts: 497 Loc: Hartsville, South Carolina for...	In the office I use empeg tray... I found it to be very helpful since my empeg is out of reach. It won't let you do everything but I can at least pause when the phone rings. _________________________ Michael West
