Did You Know - Samsung Series 750 & Cox Motorola 34XX Have Compatibility Issue?

I recently purchased the Samsung HD Series 750 "Touch of Color" 40 LCD TV.

I am on the Cox cable system using the Motorola DCH 3416 DVR.

There is a compatibility issue whereas if the TV IS on it may/does intercept the signal from the DVR remote.

If backlighting is turned to 0 then the remote works fine.

Presently I have to turn the DVR on and select "Guide" then turn the TV on for everything to work correctly.

If I turn the TV on first the DVR remote doesn't work unless I get within an inch or so.

A local Samsung service provider told me about this issue after I had replace 3 DVR's thinking they were defective.

Anybody know of a solution?
