play.
Verify that a disc has been inserted into the DVD tray.
The disc may be upside down in the tray. Ensure that the disc is inserted with
the playback side facing down.
The player does not support playback of all disc formats (CD-ROM, etc.).
Verify that the disc format is supported by the DCP501.
Severe scratches, abrasions, or smudges on the playback side of the disc may
prevent proper operation. Check the disc for damage and clean the playback
side with a soft cloth.

REPEAT, PROGRAM, or SHUFFLE playback has been selected. Press the
STOP/EJECT button until the STOP message is displayed on the screen.
Resume Play has been selected. The player will continue playback from the
previous position on the disc if the STOP/EJECT button has only been
pressed once or if the DCP501 was changed to another mode (CATV, VCR1,
etc.) while the DVD player was in operation. Press the STOP/EJECT button
until the STOP message appears on the screen.

menus, subtitles, and messages. Press the MENU button while the DVD is
playing (some DVDs need to be stopped before their main menu can be
accessed) and select the desired language(s).
Some DVDs do not offer multilingual tracks and cannot be listened to in other
languages beside the recorded track.
