Oppo BDP-93 remote/sensor issue

Any idea why the unit would stop responding to remote commands?  The remote itself lights up, but not sure if it's transmitting or if it's a problem with the player receiving.  I've refreshed the batteries, cleaned off all pertinent areas of the remote and IR receiver window.  The unit's 7 buttons are fine, but I can only play CD OR SACD on it, since I can't maneuver the menu on any video discs (BLU-RAY, DVD, etc).  All those buttons are on the remote.  Any help out there please?

Thanks !

@dtorc I unplugged the unit from everything last night and moved it away from the system.  I'll try again later to see if any changes.  Thanks for the input.

I crack my remotes and/or keyboards apart,

blow dirt with a compressor; then a small brush dipped in alcohol, I clean the whole pc board, the rubber buttons, .... everything; again blow it dry with compressed air (you can buy a can of it if you don’t have a shop compressor)

a few times, I have needed to scrape the metal where the batteries contact with a small knife.

btw, mostly I get them working, but you win some/you lose some.

Recently a Sony TV remote refused to bounce back after my procedure, I found a Sony replacement on eBay, low cost, works great.

I often use the Oppo Media Control App to operate my 105. You might check to see if it is an option for you if you can't get the remote working.
