I think only STOP and GO work in a straightforward manner.

Try pressing the BLUE button first to bring up the on-screen toolbar before you then use the arrow keys.

And if you want the top level DVD menu, try GO YELLOW

It's not the most user-friendly of interfaces!  And DVD2 is as bad, if not worse!

(And I don't understand your reference to 'different frequencies'.)

EDIT:  I just tried my DVD1 (connected to BC6) and the arrow buttons should work without pressing anything first!  Still worth checking the colour buttons to see what happens.  Is you Beo4 otherwise working fine - i.e do the arrow buttons etc work with other non-DVD functions?

Thanks for trying it out!

This blue and yellow buttons work. Only when i press the blue button you see that the disc may prohibited it

but i cant get to work pauze rewind, enz with the arrow button. 
In every other menu and non dvd it works just fine.  

I ment the frequenties you can choose for the IR. In the beo4. You have to press LIST en OFF. Then OPTION.. enz.. 

There is a mark I and Mark II DVD1 with different menus. I will check if I have the manuals. 

Savsted. Perfect!!

what your saying is just the way how it works.

GO, LEFT OR GO, RIGHT Is forward or rewind.

STOP is pauze.

GO is resume

thank you very much. This helpt a lot!

Good news - that implies it's a Mk2 DVD1 (i Just looked at the user manual online).  That's suppose to be the better one, identified by a Type Number of 4621-27.

Mine's a Mk1, which explains the difference.

Anyway, glad that all is working as it should be! 🙂
