Are you sure that the remote control is the problem?
Slow or no remote reaction also occurs when the machine is under high
load, i.e. doing cutting.

Is the reaction also slow when no recording, playback or cutting is
done, i.e. when pressing the menu button?

If the reaction is only slow when there is any disk activity you
probably don't have dma enabled for the harddisk.
