hey,
not sure if anyone here would know. I have a sony slv-779hf and I've recently gotten cable tv. The VCR has an option to add a cable mouse remote to control the cable box. I've lost my manual and I'm not sure which model cable mouse I need.
I went on ebay, and purchased a cable mouse that had no model number or version number. It didn't work. The plug was too small as the outlet on the back fits a 1/8 plug, and the one on this cable mouse was much smaller. I know you can purchase them from sony directly, but its 70 bucks and thats a bit out of my range. I also see on ebay that there are cable mice with a version number imprinted like 2.1 and 2.2 however the model number is the same which is RM-CM101.. So since I got this one without a version number and it doesn't work.. I'm thinking that one of these others might, of course its just guess works since I don't have the manual.
So if anyone can point me in the right direction, or has an extra one lying around... I'll give ya 10 bucks for it.
I also decided to adapt the mouse I had to work on the machine. so I got a 3/32 small plug to a 1/8 mini plug, and now it fits in my vcr,
but I've lost my manual, and I'm not sure which codes would work my pioneer cable box. i'm not sure if the old mouse will even work, but I beg someone who has the 2.1 or 2.2 mouse to look in their manual and see if it lists a code to try for the pioneer cable box.
thanks so much!
please, it takes only seconds to check your manual, and it would mean alot!
