Remedy
• Clean the disc and align the disc properly in the disc guide.
• 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 38).
• Allow time for any condensation inside the player to evaporate. Avoid using the
player near an air-conditioning unit.
• If the disc is loaded upside down, reload the disc with label side face up.
• Press (stop), then
• Switch the power off once, then on again using the front panel
STANDBY/ON button.
• When the power is cut, settings will be canceled.
• Check that connections are correct and that plugs are inserted fully.
• Check the manual of the TV/monitor to make sure the settings are correct.
• The TV Screen setting is incorrect. Set the TV Screen option to match the TV/
monitor you're using (see Video Output settings on page 26).
• This system uses copy-protection technology which may prevent recording or
cause picture problems when connected through a VCR or AV selector. This is not
a malfunction.
• This player is compatible with Macro-Vision System copy guard. Some discs
include a copy prevention signal, and when this type of disc is played back, stripes
etc., may appear on some sections of the picture depending on the TV. This is not a
malfunction.
• Discs respond differently to particular player functions. This may result in the
screen becoming black for a brief instant or shaking slightly when the function is
executed. These problems are largely due to differences between discs and disc
content and are not malfunctions of this player.
• DVDs and CDs use different recording methods. This is not a malfunction.
• Make sure that the CD-ROM was recorded using the ISO 9660 disc format. See
Disc compatibility table on page 35 for more on disc compatibility.
• Make sure that the DVD-ROM was recorded using the UDF bridge format. See
Disc compatibility table on page 35 for more on disc compatibility.
• The files on the disc must be named with the correct file extension: .mp3 for MP3
files; .wma for WMA files; .m4a for MPEG-4 AAC files; .jpg for JPEG files (upper or
lower-case is OK). See Disc compatibility table on page 35.
• The files were recorded using DRM (digital rights management).This is not a
malfunction.
