Hello I'm new here and would like to ask a few questions about the RDR-VX530 recorder from sony. I found one on Ebay without a remote and am having a hard time finding a remote for it. I have a couple of questions about it and your help would be greatly appreciated. Where can I buy a remote for this model? If I can't find a remote for my model, then can I use the remote from the RDR VX500 model? I'll be willing to look at any remote compatible with the RDR-VX530, so any suggestions will be welcome. I am new to DVD recorders but I'm pretty technically savvy and am good with computers (burners included) so I shouldn't have too much trouble if I can get the RDR-VX530 along with a compatible remote. I have a limited budget and would really like to spend no more than $20-$30. One last question. Can I operate the RDR-VX530 without a remote? Thanks in advance.
