I have a 52" Visio LCD tv that has the same problem. It's working ok now, but 3 times it stopped responding to the remote and after unplugging it for several hours and then plugging it back in it started to work again. I've gone several months between each time this happened. The last time it happened I replaced the batteries in the remote with those silver energizer litium AA cells and so far so good.

My 950 has been flaky with remote inputs for years -- I always thought it was just that the remote was going to crap.

I recently got a new universal remote (Harmony 510) and the 950 is still just as flaky! Infuriating when you need to bump the volume up or down a decent bit.

So I've concluded it's the IR receiver on the 950 that's wonky. I've got a ticket with Outlaw, although I doubt there's much to be done -- I've had my 950 for quite a while, and while there's really no functional need to upgrade, this remote thing is killer.

Could it be a line-of-sight issue in your room? If so, a simple remote IR sensor could do the trick. I use a couple of the 291 sensors on this page ($27 right now) in different places around the house, and you can plug one of those directly into the 950.
