Make sure the disc is loaded with the label side face-up and aligned properly in the disc tray guide.

Incompatible region number: If the region number on a DVD-Video disc does not match the number on the player, the disc cannot be used (see DVD-Video regions on page 11).

Condensation inside the player: Allow time for condensation to evaporate. Avoid using the player near an air-conditioning unit.
