Bottom of post, it appears Meridian branded but I don't have a clue what the heck this thing could even do I tried it with all my equipment nothing works, I can't even find the freaking battery compartment ...

Another question, does the Meridian system remote only work on one piece of equipment at a time? I know how to set a control unit versus slave, but I would like to be able to control the DVD player to skip tracks and stuff but I don't want to lose control over the surround controller, am I stupid how can I control the 596 DVD at the same time as switching parameters on the surround?
