• After I load a DVD disc, it ejects automati-

cally 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 13.

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 81. Check also that the disc is
aligned properly in the disc tray and that
it’s loaded label-side up.

• 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 not damaged. See

Taking care

of your player and discs

on page 81 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-ROM. See

Disc /

content format playback compatibility

on

page 11 for more on disc compatibility.

• There’s no picture!

Check the front panel and make sure that
the

PURE AUDIO

indicator isn’t lit. If it is,

press the

PURE AUDIO

button to switch

the video and HDMI outputs back on. See
also

Front panel

on page 26.

Also make sure that if your TV isn’t
compatible with progressive scan video,
that the

PROGRESSIVE

indicator isn’t lit.

If it is, press the

PROGRESSIVE

button to

switch the video output back to interlace.

• 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 prefer-
ences of the player, so even if you have

4:3

(Pan & Scan)

selected, those discs will

still be shown in letterbox format. This is
not a malfunction.

• My DVD-Audio disc starts playing, but then

suddenly stops!

The disc may have been illegally copied.

• My CD with MP3 tracks won’t play!

Make sure that the tracks are encoded in
MPEG1 audio layer 3 format. See also

Compressed Audio Compatibility

on

page 11.

• Some MP3 tracks don’t show up. Where are

they?

Filenames that don’t end with the exten-
sion “.mp3” won’t be recognized by this
player. Also, if there are more than 250
folders or tracks on the disc, only the first
250 are recognized. See also

Compressed

Audio Compatibility

on page 11.

• There’s no sound from the analog/optical/

coaxial outputs or the HDMI interface!

Check the front panel and make sure that
the

PURE AUDIO

indicator isn’t lit. If it is,

press the

PURE AUDIO

button to switch

the digital audio (optical/coaxial and
HDMI) outputs back on.
