  If the remote control buttons are not active and you can't change the DVB-T channel on your Schaub Lorenz DVD Player, it's likely because a recording is in progress. During recording, the unit's tuner must stay on the recording channel. You can switch between your satellite receiver, Canal Plus decoder, or analogue television by pressing the DTV/VCR button on the remote. Alternatively, you can stop the recording by pressing REC/STOP.
