I know that this has come up once before, but I can't seem to find the thread at the moment. You might want to download a copy of the SL-9000 manual as it offers more detail into the capabilities of the 950's remote. On page 33 of that manual (page 34 in the PDF file), it described the procedure for programming a device to a different device button. This is the procedure you need to use to set up a DVD player on the SAT device, or a VCR on the TAPE device, or even a satellite box on the TV device. Here's the details:

[*]Turn on the device.
[*]On the remote control, press the Device Button that you will assign (in this case, the Video2 button) for the device and theMUTE button, simultaneously.
[*]Press the Device Button that corresponds to the original device (in this case, the Video 1 / SAT button).
[*]Locate the Set-Up Code number for the device from the tables found on pages 39-57 (or from the 950's manual).
[*]Point the remote toward the device and press in the first Set-Up Code number. Your device will turn off when the correct Set-Up Code number has been selected. If it does not turn off, select the next Set-Up Code number from the table, and press in that code number. When your device turns off, proceed to Step 6.
[*]Press the Device Button that was selected in Step 2 to store the Set-Up Code number.
