Home / Other I-Appliances / Virgin Webplayer What are the dipswitches under the battery cover for?

What are the dipswitches under the battery cover for? (modified 0 times) GKxx Profile My friend brought these to my attention and now we're curious. For a moment I thought they would be used to change frequencies to get around inference issues, but this isn't RF. :) Any ideas? 07-08-2002 00:34:26

The keyboard says on it/in it who made it, just look it up on their website. 07-08-2002 15:16:20

RE:What are the dipswitches under the battery cover for? (modified 0 times) mrhands Profile This is intriguing, as I recently put my Digital Picture Frame/Caller ID Webplayer on my entertainment center. The first time I went to use my TIVO, the Webplayer beeped at every key I pressed on the remote. Pretty funny, actually. So, I have just covered up the IR port for now, but would like to get it solved. I'll play around with it tonight and let everyone know what I find out! 07-22-2002 07:57:47
