DVD

The following troubleshooting items address problems related to DVD. (For general video-related troubleshooting items, see “Video”, page 38.)

Problem

DVD video playback is jerky (skipping frames)

Cause

Your DVD drive may be too slow.

Solution

If your DVD drive supports DMA transfers, enable this feature (see page 38).

Problem

Can’t play certain DVD videos

Cause

prevent the playback of video that was intended only for a certain region or market.

Solution

To get a copy of a DVD video that’s compatible with the region code of your DVD player,

 

contact the vendor of that video.
