•If you load a disc that contains DivX VOD content not authorized for your player, the message Authorization Error is displayed and the content will not play.

Note

• If you forget your password, you’ll need to reset the player to register a new password. (see Resetting the system on page 39)

2Resetting the player (as described in Resetting the system on page 39) will not cause you to lose your registration code.
