Problem

No operations can be performed with remote.

Disc does not play.

5.1channel sound is not being reproduced.

The

icon appears on

screen.

 

Disc Menu doesn’t appear.

Action

Check the batteries in the remote. May need replacing.

Operate the remote control at a distance of no more than 20 feet.

Remove batteries and hold down one or more buttons for several

 

minutes to drain the microprocessor inside the remote to reset it.

 

Reinstall batteries and try remote again.

Ensure that the disc is installed with the label side facing up.

Check the region number of the DVD.

5.1 channel sound is reproduced only when the following conditions

 

are met. :

 

1) The DVD player is connected with the proper amplifier

 

2) The disc is recorded with 5.1 channel sound.

Check whether the disc being played has the “Dolby 5.1 ch” mark on

 

the outside.

Check if your audio system is connected and working properly.

In a SETUP Menu, is the Audio Output set to Bitstream?

The features or action cannot be completed at this time because:

 

1. The DVD’s software restricts it.

 

2. The DVD’s software doesn’t support the feature (e.g., angles).

 

3. The feature is not available at the moment.

 

4. You’ve requested a title or chapter number or search time that is

 

out of range.

Check if the disc has a Menu.

Some of the functions selected in the Setup Menu may not work

 

properly if the disc is not encoded with the corresponding function.

The Screen Ratio is fixed on your DVDs.
