these functions. This is normal.
Picture instability or
noise?

via a VCR or other video equipment and a
copy-protection system is affecting the
picture.
Connect the DV-SP405 directly to your TV
(page19).
No picture?
The wrong input source is selected on
your TV.
On your TV, select the input to which the
DV-SP405 is connected.
The video cable is not connected properly. Check the video cable and correct as necessary
(page19).
Settings are not saved?
If there’s a power failure, or the power
cord is disconnected inadvertently, any
settings are lost.
Before you disconnect the power cord, set the
DV-SP405 to Standby by pressing the
[STANDBY/ON] button, and wait until “OFF”
has disappeared from the display.
New settings made in the Setup screen
menus while a disc is playing are ineffec-
tive.
Some settings can be changed while a disc is play-
ing, but are not effective until the disc is stopped
then restarted: Press [STOP] button, then start
playback again.
