    Try unplugging the TV, count to ten and plug it in again. Really. The TV has a small processor inside that receives the signal from the remote. If that processor is confused, then it won't pay attention to any remote. Cycling power will "reboot" the processor. My mom had a Magnavox TV that needed an occasional reboot.
