Change source on TV without remote

Question

Hello,

My mother-in-law can no longer use her remote control (dmla), and she has many DVDs that she used to watch, but now it has become impossible for her to change the source on the television with the remote control (the display is also very fast).
Do you know of another solution?
I thought about an HDMI switch, does it exist? Or any other accessory?

If you have any ideas, I would be grateful.

Thank you for your help.

Best regards.

Good evening,
Here I am again,
After some research, it seems that an HDMI switch would be suitable. There are models with two inputs and one output (reversible) that would work for about €10, so it’s worth giving it a try.
I will take the plunge.
Best regards.

Hello,
At 10 € it should be a manual switch, it would be better to get an automatic one, like this for example:

Hello
Thank you Andy

The question I had about this equipment is its reliability (possible disconnection), and on the other hand, it leaves a device running (she doesn't see enough to turn on and off her decoder) so under these conditions which accessory will take priority? The proposal is interesting, thank you again.

Best regards.
