Older Durabrand TV Can't Post

Hi all - I have an older Durabrand TV (Model DBTV1300). I purchased it for my sister who is in the hospital. I want her to be able to play DVD's on it and thought that since it had the AV inputs - it could. There is no remote to it but I was still able to access the Menu. Problem is I cannot find the "input" indicator in which to set the channel to so that she can watch DVD's on.

Do I need to purchase a universal remote? Any suggestions would be helpful.

On some TVs if you press 'channel down' until you go below channel 1 it goes to the video inputs.
Another experiment to try is to connect a DVD player to the video input & have the DVD player playing then plug the TV in & turn it on & some TVs will do a search for the active input & automatically switch to that input. Be sure to disconnect all other inputs so that the DVD player is the only input the TV has to choose from.

Otherwise you should be able to navigate through the menu & find the input options using the menu button & the channel up & down & the volume up & down to navigate through the choices (look under 'set-up' of 'video' etc. if that's one of your options).

I'll have a look around the shop tomorrow for a Durabrand remote, I might have one around that I can spare.

Hope this helps & hope your sister is feeling better soon!
