I have a Sony CMT-NE3 stereo and I need to access the MD input so I can plugin my computer's headphone jack (and use it for my iPod). I don't have a remote to access the MD input though, which is what is required (according to the manual) to access this function. I also tried programming a universal remote, but it didn't offer this button either. Is there a way I activate the MD input without the remote? I'm not opposed to opening it up and fiddling with the circuitry if that is the solution.
Hi, just came across the same device, but remote is missing. Your solution to hack the audio is not acceptable. I continued looking. And found a way which is not mentioned on any forums.
THE SOLUTION is ANDROID APP on PLAY STORE:
1. GET THE APP "irplus".
2. OPEN APP AND "ADD NEW REMOTE"
3. SELECT BRAND "SONY(Various&Legacy)"
4. SELECT DEVICE "CMT-Series"
5. TAP the "TICK" in the upper right corner TO FINISH.
6. YOU WILL SEE REMOTE. TAP ON "INPUT+" to select "AUDIO IN"
7. ENJOY THE BEATS
BTW YOU ARE WELCOME
Thanks Hommie... you are a lifesaver. Worked perfectly. I believe it just on android tho.

I don't think there is a solution, but I have the same problem. Trying to use my ipod through md input, but no remote. I've pretty much tried every combination of buttons, but nothing works. What a serious flaw to an otherwise good stereo. O well.
I have the same problem. I called costomer support and all they said to order a replacement remote
Exact same problem. Seems unbelievable to me.
This a dumb problem to have. I have the same thing...
I've got the same system. When I noticed that the MD/aux could only be accessed via remote I SWORE to never loose it. While I've never permanently lost it I have misplaced it a few times. no - it is impossible without the remote. Really alloying - I now use it only to play Steaming internet and iTunes, and I sometimes inadvertnatly bump the wong button and then have to seak out the emote to get my music back. I agree - serously lame design flaw. How much did they save by omitting that button? Maybe you could find a replacement remote through Sony or on eBay.
