Sounds like it definitely the remote going out if a few keys still work. And probably they'll quit too. Remotes can lose conductivity, when press down it completes a circuit, the rubber of the remote doesn't do it they paint it with it something and this flakes off and the button no longer works. This happens on $500 remotes too. Use just have to use the button often and it will fail in time.
