The Sony RM-TV501D DVD/VCR Combo Remote Control has been discontinued and replaced with the Anderic RMC12249 replacement remote. Designed to work for compatible Sony DVD/VCR combo players, this remote provides convenient access to playback, recording, menu navigation, channel selection, and other commonly used functions.

This remote has two modes: TV and DVD/VIDEO. All keys with the maroon dot beside them require the remote to be in TV mode to operate, including the POWER key. For DVD functions, you must be in DVD/VIDEO mode. To switch between modes, simply press the mode key at the top of the remote. Press the TV key to switch to TV mode, or press the DVD/VIDEO key to switch to DVD mode.
