Back in June of 2011, Rixrex (on CEDmagic.com forum) advertised that he had some Hitachi AVC08U switchers/converters for sale. I bought one back then and have kept it knowing that some day I would be buying an HDTV and would be using the AVC08U with my CED players. Well, the day came a year ago last August when I bought a Sony Bravia 1080 HDTV .Some months ago I decided to get the AVC08U out of storage and do some experimentation with it.
To make a long story short, I found out that I could not use the the AVC08U's remote control. I did not have the keypad mapping for the remote. I had no idea what key did what. So, I am asking if anyone would have any idea which key on the remote does what on the AVC08U? (It has been so long that I do not remember if there was ever a keypad mapping diagram that might have come with the AVC08U).
Any help would be appreciated.
PS: The remote that came with the unit is a universal remote that was programmed by rixrex (I believe). It is NOT the original Hitachi remote mentioned in the owner's manual.
I have used the AVC08U with a Laserdisc player and the AVC08U does a very good job of up converting the composite video to HD so I know that the unit does work.

That maybe the case. The remote I have is labeled "CHUNGHOP Learning Remote" if this helps. I did find that pressing Power and then CATV can power cycle the unit. That is about all I can remember when using the remote. Through a goof, I ended up with a second AVC08U unit from an E-bay seller. The second unit came with no instructions so it was of no help, If you have the key mapping sheet, maybe you could make a pdf of it and e-mail it to me? Go to here: http://www.cedmagic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1597&highlight=avc08u for the discussion on CEDmagic.com. Right now, my AVC08U is setup to use composite 2 for input which is okay with me. I just worry that some day in the future I may accidentally press a button and the input will change and I will have no idea how to change it back.
