TiVo remote and Sony TV

[magilladke]

I have a Sony Wega TV and am using a Series 2 ST TiVo. The remote works with the TV but you have to aim the remote directly in the bottom/center of the TV (and sometimes that doesn't work).

I have to press the power button 3 or 4 time to get the TV to respond. I've replaced the batteries and the TV works fine with the original Sony remote. The TiVo seems to work fine with the remote as well.

Any one else had any problems?

Thanks in advance.

I have a Sony WEGA Plasma with an S3 and I at times have similar issues when turning on the TV. It is usually during the day or other bright light situations. I have found no solution other than walk over and hit the power button to turn it on. All other TIVO remote functions for the TV work just fine.

If anyone has a solution?????

For me it seems to be the TV Power and Input buttons (volume seems fine).

Thanks for the response.

No solutions, but I have the exact same problem with my Series3 remote and my Sony Grand Wega TV.

I've noticed it's worse when the TV's been off for a while. Once it's powered up, the TiVo remote and toggle the power just fine.
