    My remote control isn't working correctly

    Hello,
    My TV was working alright until recently. My remote control works in a funny way these days kind of slow motion and with different speed, I need to time pressing the buttons differently for it to change channels. Also, bottom part of TV screen alternates the following: standard mode, game mode, theatre mode etc and keeps changing between the above until I press enter.
    Can anybody advise what is wrong and what I should do?
    Thanks

    Re: Remote control

    You can view the infrared emitter output at the top of the remote control by facing it at a digital camera (such as on a camera phone) , this will allow you to see the white blips on the camera screen to verify correct functionality when pressing the remote's key pad. If the remote if firing off without a key press , then the remote has damage (such as goo ingress I.e. tea/coffee/vino etc) and needs a clean inside.

    Sunlight shinning directly onto the TV's front panel will cause slow operation as it is being bombarded with to much infrared from the sun.
