Remotes

[alciewonders]

I have a voice remote that had been working fine for a few years before out of nowhere, the power and volume controls stopped working. I have tried to re-set up the TV controls (Emerson TV), but it eventually just runs out of codes to try and tells me that it cannot set up my remote. I have not changed the TV it is connected to, so I am not sure why it would suddenly disconnect like this.
