P. Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
No sound or
distorted sound
Can't advance
through a movie
The icon “”
appears on
screen
Picture is
distorted
No forward or
reverse scan
SOLUTION
Make sure yourDVD is connected properly. Makesure
all cables aresecurely inserted into the
appropriate jacks.
You can't advance throughthe opening credits and
warning information thatappears at the beginning
of movies becausethe disc is programmed to
prohibit that action.
The feature oraction cannot be completed at thistime
because:
1. The disc'ssoftware restricts it.
2. The disc'ssoftware doesn't support the feature
(e.g., angles)
3. The featureis not available at the moment.
4. You've requested a title or chapternumber that is
out of range.
The disc mightbe damaged. Try another disc.
It is normalfor some distortion to appear during
forward or reversescan.
Some discs havesections that prohibit rapid
scanning or titleand chapter skip.
If you tryto skip throughthe warning information
and credits atthe beginning of a movie, you won't be
able to. This part of the movie is oftenprogrammed
to prohibit skippingthrough it.
