REMOTE CODES FOR GO-VIDEO DVR 4300

GENERIC REMOTE CONTROLS WILL NOT OPERATE THE "SETUP' SETTING FOR MY GO- VIDEO DVR4300. WITHOUT THIS FEATURE I CANNOT TURN OFF THE PARENTAL LOCK. I CAN GET TO THE "SETUP" SCREEN, BUT IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE CURSER TO GO UP OR DOWN---LEFT OR RIGHT. (THAT WOULD CHANGE THE SETTINGS OF THE DVR) ALSO, THE REMOTE WILL NOT EJCT THE DVD,S. iT WILL ONLY PLAY THE ON THAT IS IN THEIR.

    Same exact problem. I hate parental controls, and I'm old enough to be a parent! I do not have the original remote control, but tried using a "OneForAll.com" UR4330 remote. Unfortunately, there are no universal codes that translate. So based on Chiquatine's input, a universal remote won't work anyway.



    Is there any way to break the "box" open and hit a reset switch?

SOURCE: I would like to download

Hi!

Try this link:

http://www.retrevo.com/support/GoVideo-DVR4300-DVD-Players-manual/id/1183bh642/t/2/

Make sure that the link doesn't "wrap" (IOW, make sure that the end of the link actually appears in the browser address bar, should the link not work. If it doesn't work, paste the end back on!)

You'll have to make an account at this site in order to download the manuals, but it is a free process and they have lots of manuals there. BTW, I tried to access this manual directly from GoVideo, but I had no luck getting their site up, assuming that it still works.

Good luck. Please let me know how this works, and please post a rating for me if you deem it appropriate.

SOURCE: Unable to play a DVD movie

Most probably the TV system is not compatible.
This VCR/DVD uses NTSC formate. Is the DVD in PAL formate. Also the Region code can be different. This DVD palys DVD-Disks with regional code 1 or All.

Unplug it, press the power button, then plug it in and retry it. If it doesn't work, unplug it, press power, and let it sit a couple days, to try to reset everything. There may be a reset pinhole in the back, unplug it and press the reset button.

Have not been able to get it to work to turn TV on & off and on sound---

Try by set it up with an other set-up code said for your device brand. If you wish to get more; check the sites linked here. It has set-up code list & set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. One among it has general set-up codes to check with TVs and other devices are given, in the order of the 'device's brand name list' in alphabetical order. Pull up older posts. Search the sites by type in the brand name to your device in its search box at the top right part of the display window. It will help you to find the document easily.
http://remotesearch.blogspot.com/
http://electro-medical.blogspot.com/
http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/
http://electrohelponline.blogspot.com/
Search the site by type in the brand name of your device, in the "Search box at the top right of the Home page display" to see the set-up codes to your device, with different brand remote controls.
Programming Notes
• If your device does not respond to the remote after trying all codes listed or your brand is not listed in the code list,
use the Auto Code
Search method to program your remote.
• Sometimes the first code that "works" with your device may operate only a few functions of your device. There may
be another code
in the code list that performs more functions. Try other codes from the code list for more functionality.
PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE
Direct Code Entry
Locate the Remote Code List provided in this manual. Find the DEVICE CATEGORY you wish to program (for
example TV, CBL,
DVR, DVD, SAT, AUDIO, AUX1, AUX2) and then find the BRAND of that device. Circle all the codes under that
brand. Example: For a GE TV, locate the TV code section then circle all of the GE TV codes.
Manually turn on the device you wish to control.
Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator light stays on (approximately 2 seconds) and then release
the SETUP button.
Press and release the desired device button on the remote (TV, CBL, DVR, DVD, SAT, AUDIO, AUX1, AUX2). The
red indicator will blink
once and then remain on.
Enter the first 4-digit code previously found in the code list using the number buttons on the remote. If the code
entered is a valid code, the
red indicator light will turn off. If the code entered is not a valid code, the red indicator light will flash and remain on
allowing you to re-enter the code.
[If no buttons are pressed for 35 seconds, the remote will exit the SETUP mode and you will have to start over.]
Point the remote at the device. Press the POWER button, if the device turns off, no further programming is required
for that device. If the device does not turn off, return to step 3 and use the next code found in the code list. Continue
this process until a code for your device is found.
To view a helpful demonstration video for programming your ONN remote, see QR code.
• You can use any device button to control other devices in your home entertainment system. For example, you can
use the AUX1 device
button to control an audio receiver or a DVD, VCR, satellite, etc.
• For combination devices, you may have to enter a code for each device. For example, for a VCR/DVD device, you
may have to enter a
code for the DVD under the DVD button and enter a code for the VCR using a different device button on the remote.
• Write down the code found to operate your device for future reference.
Auto Code Search
The Auto Code Search searches automatically through all of the codes stored in this remote. Read all the following
steps prior to starting the auto code search as you will need to be prepared to lock-in the proper code when found.
1.Manually turn on the device you wish to control.
2. Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator light stays on (approximately 2 seconds) and then release
the button.

3. Press and release the desired device button on the remote (TV, CBL, DVR, DVD, SAT, AUDIO, AUX1, AUX2).
The red indicator will blink once and then remain on.
4. Point the remote at the device and press and release the POWER button (for TV) or PLAY button (for DVD, VCR,
etc.) to start the search. The red indicator will flash (approximately every 2 seconds) as the remote searches. Note:
The remote must be pointed at the device for the duration of this search.
5. Place your finger on the #1 button so you are prepared to lock-in the code.
6. When the device shuts off or begins playing, press the #1 button to lock-in the code. The red indicator light will turn
off. Note: You have
approximately two seconds after the device shuts off or begins playing to lock-in the code.
7. Point the remote at the device and check to see if the remote operates the device as desired. If it does, no further
programming is required for that device. If it does not, return to step 2 and start the auto search.
• This process may take several minutes as the remote contains many codes.
• The SETUP button can be used during the search process to reverse the direction of the search of the remote
codes. For example, if you miss the code for your device and the remote is continuing to search (as indicated by the
blinking red light), press the SETUP button and the code search will reverse direction and return to the code.
• When using the Auto Code Search programming method, the device button corresponding to the type of device you
want to control must be selected (for example, the TV device button must be selected in step 3 if you want to control
a TV, the DVD/VCR device button for a DVD player, etc.)
• Sometimes the first code that "works" with your device may operate only a few functions of your device. There may
be another code in the code list that performs more functions. Continue the code search as directed above until the
best code is found.
Controlling Combo Devices
Some Combo devices (e.g. TV/VCR, TV/DVD, DVD/VCR, etc.) will require you to setup up two different Mode
buttons to control both parts of the Combo device. For example, if you have a TV/DVD Combo, you might need to set
up one code under the TV button to control the TV part AND a separate code (under any other Mode button) to
control the DVD part.
Master Volume Feature
The Master Volume Feature allows you to select a single device (TV or audio receiver) that the volume control
always controls. For example, the remote can be in TV mode while the volume buttons control the volume on your
audio receiver instead of your TV.
Enabling the Master Volume Feature
Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator stays on (approximately 4 seconds) and then release the
button.
2. Press and release desired device button (TV, CBL, DVR, DVD, SAT, AUDIO, AUX1, AUX2) for the device you
wish to setup to control
the volume.
3. Press and release the MUTE button.
4. Press and release the VOL + button. The red indicator will blink twice and then go off. To test the feature put the
remote in another mode such as the TV mode if you programmed the audio receiver to be the Master Volume
Device. Point the remote at the audio receiver,
press and hold either the VOL + or the VOL - button. If the audio receiver volume changes then the remote is
programmed correctly. If the TV volume changes and not the audio receiver, you will have to repeat the steps above
and test again.
Disabling the Master Volume Feature
Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator stays on (approximately 2 seconds) and then release the
button.
2. Press and release the device button (TV, CBL, DVR, DVD, SAT, AUDIO, AUX1, AUX2) which is programmed to
control the Master Volume Feature.
3. Press and release the MUTE button.
4. Press and release the VOL - button. The red indicator light will blink twice and go off. To make sure the Master
Volume Feature is disabled, put the remote in TV mode if you programmed the audio receiver to be the Master
Volume Device. Point the remote at the TV and
press a volume button. If the volume changes on the TV, the feature is disabled. If the volume on the audio receiver
changes, and not the TV, you will have to repeat the steps above and test again.
Reset to Factory Settings
Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator stays on (approximately 2 seconds) and then release the
button.
2. Press and release the MUTE button.
3. Press and release the number #0 button. The red indicator light will flash twice.
Remote does not operate your device.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh and installed correctly.
• Aim the remote directly at your device, and make sure that there are no obstructions between the remote and
device.
• Make sure you select the appropriate device on the remote you wish to control, for example, TV for TV, DVD for
DVD, etc.
• Try programming the remote with a different code. See Direct Code Entry section.
• Remote may not be compatible with your device.
Remote does not operate some features of your device.
• Sometimes a particular code might operate a few features but not all. Try programming remote with a different code
from the code list.
See Direct Code Entry section.
• Remote may not be able to operate all features of your device or button names may be different than that of your
original remotes.
Remote Code is not available for a combo device (e.g. TV/VCR, TV/DVD)
• Some Combo devices (e.g. TV/VCR, TV/DVD, DVD/VCR, etc.) will require you to set up two different Mode buttons
to control both parts of the Combo device, For example, if you have a TV/DVD Combo, you might need to set up one
code under the TV button to control the TV part AND a separate code (under any other Mode button) to control the
DVD part.

I have a GoVideo DVR 4300 that has been child locked. I have lost the remote control. Is there any way to unlock it with out the remote?

According to page 16 of the owner's manual, you cannot disable child lock without the remote. Because you have lost the remote, the unit does not offer a manual way to disable that feature. I am not sure if a universal remote will allow you to enter the setup menu, and turn the child lock OFF. You could try that - it might work.

Or you could try contacting them:

Phone (480) 922-0896 or (800) 736-7679 (during business hours)
E-Mail [email protected]
Web www.govideo.com or www.sonicblue.com

They may or may not be able to offer further assistance. The universal remote might help, if you cannot get the original replacement for your unit.

Personally, child lock in DVD players is a pointless and unnecessary extra feature that should not exist; it should really only apply to Blu-Ray/DVD recorders.
