Just Got It ..it Says It Is Oem Bue It Interfave With My /sony Dvp-cx985v 4

While the Sony RMT-D144A is an OEM remote control for various Sony devices, it's not compatible with the Sony DVP-CX985V DVD player. The DVP-CX985V uses a different remote control model, the RMT-D197A.

Here's why the RMT-D144A won't work with your DVP-CX985V:

Different frequency: Remote controls operate on specific frequencies. The RMT-D144A might not transmit on the same frequency as the DVP-CX985V expects, rendering it unable to communicate with the player.

Missing or incompatible buttons: The RMT-D144A might lack the specific buttons required to control the DVP-CX985V's functions. Even if they share some basic buttons, crucial playback, menu, and other controls might be absent.

Pairing requirement: Some remote controls require pairing with specific devices, and the RMT-D144A might not have the pairing functionality compatible with the DVP-CX985V.

Here's what you can do:

Return the RMT-D144A: If you purchased it recently and unopened, you can likely return it for a full refund.

Look for the RMT-D197A: This is the correct remote control for your DVP-CX985V. You can find it online or at authorized Sony retailers.

Consider a universal remote: If you frequently use multiple devices, a universal remote can learn the codes for various devices, including the DVP-CX985V.

I hope this clarifies the situation and helps you find the right remote control for your Sony DVD player.
