What was suggested earlier did not work for me, but this did (taken from Amazon.co.uk): ONE FOR ALL remote (URC-7562) FIRST you need to put both your DVD recorder and your remote to code 1. Hi to everybody!
I own a Sony RDR-HX650, the official Sony Service remote and an Harmony 525 set to Pionner GGF1381, which gives me all commands to the recorder. I was able to replace the HDD by a larger one w/o problem but cannot apply the region hack: I tried with both remotes and got the same results: nothing in reply to my 12345. I tried with remote set to 1,2 and 3. I tried with unit power off and power on. I tried as read somewhere here. Nothing works: unit does not react (but IR pulses are sent, I can 'see' them from the Harmony or from the Service remote (with my video recorder, in record mode).
I wonder if this '12345' is the good hack for the HX650. Has anybody already succeeded in a similar config? This was posted on another thread by another member 'Simon1' There is a hack available, but you'll need a 'One For All' remote to do it: prepare: 1. Select dvd device on remote 2. Hold magic button until rabbit comes out 3. Enter device code 0533 program buttons 1.5 with the following codes: (newer remotes use 5 digits) 1 - 189 or 00189 2 - 255 or 00255 3 - 095 or 00095 4 - 221 or 00221 5 - 079 or 00079 1.
Hold magic button until rabbit comes out 2. Press magic 4. Enter 3/5 digit code from above 5. Press button (1.5) where to program it 6. Repeat steps 1 to 5 for all keys. This hack only works if you change the command mode to '1' on the dvd player FIRST (see user manual). Once hack has been completed, you can change back to command mode '3', if necessary.
Have it a go: 1. Remove disk, put player on standby 2. Press 1,2,3,4,5 - success is displayed and plyer starts up 3. Press 1,2,3,4,5 - player shuts down and BINGO!
