Internal DVD player The internal DVD player can be enabled or disabled. If, for example, you're using the TV/DVD with an external DVD player, and you've programmed the remote to work with that player, then you can disable the internal DVD player so that it isn't activated by the buttons on your remote. Then you can use your TV/DVD remote with your external DVD player without the internal DVD player interfering. To enable or disable the internal DVD player, highlight Internal DVD player, then press the OK button for five seconds.
