FAQ

• After I load a DVD disc, it ejects

automatically after a few seconds!

Most likely, the disc is the wrong region for
your player. The region number should be
printed on the disc; check it against the
region number of the player (which you
can find on the rear panel). See also

DVD-

Video regions

on page 44.

If the region number is OK, it may be that
the disc is damaged or dirty. Clean the disc
and look for signs of damage. See also

Taking care of your player and discs

on

page 42.

• Why won’t the disc I loaded play?

First check that you loaded the disc the
right way up (label side up), and that it’s
clean and undamaged. See

Taking care of

your player and discs

on page 42 for

information on cleaning discs.

If a disc loaded correctly won’t play, it’s
probably an incompatible format or disc
type, such as DVD-Audio or DVD-ROM.
See

Disc/content format playback

compatibility

on page 8 for more on disc

compatibility.

• I have a widescreen TV so why are there

black bars at the top and bottom of the
screen when I play some discs?

Some movie formats are such that even
when played on a widescreen TV, black
bars are necessary at the top and bottom
of the screen. This is not a malfunction.

• I have a standard (4:3) TV and set the player

to show widescreen DVDs in pan & scan
format, so why do I still get black bars top
and bottom with some discs?

Some discs override the display
preferences of the player, so even if you
have

4:3 (Pan & Scan)

selected, those

discs will still be shown in letter box
format. This is not a malfunction.

• I’ve connected to a HDMI compatible

component but I can’t get any signal and
the front panel HDMI indicator won’t light!

Make sure that you’ve selected this player
as the HDMI input in the settings for the
component you’re using. You may need to
refer to the instruction manual of the
component to do this. See

Connecting

using HDMI

on page 14 for more on HDMI

compatibility.

• There’s no picture from the HDMI output!

This player cannot display pictures from
DVI compatible sources. See

Connecting

using HDMI

on page 14 for more on HDMI

compatibility.

Make sure the resolution on this player
matches that of the component you have
connected using HDMI. See

HDMI

Resolution

on page 36 to change the HDMI

resolution.
