Magnavox DP100MW8B DVD Player

I bought this DVD player model in February 2010 and less than a year later it the remote sensor no longer works.  The only way to play a DVD now is to press "Play" on the player itself, but we can no longer watch DVD's that have a menu.   (I've tried several remotes so I know that it is the player that isn't responding)

This is the shortest lived DVD player I've ever owned.  Replacing it with a different brand.
