  If you can't control external components with your Yamaha Receiver's remote, here are a few things to try: * **Remote Control Code:** Ensure the remote control code is correctly set using 'Remote control code search' on the CD-ROM. * **Alternative Code:** Try setting another code for the same manufacturer using 'Remote control code search' on the CD-ROM. * **Button Functionality:** If Cursor B / C / D / E don't work during DVD disc menu operation, press the Input selector again.
