TROUBLESHOOTING

Incorrect operations can be mistaken as malfunctions. If you believe the unit is not operating correctly, consult
the chart below. Sometimes incorrect operation may be due to a malfunction in another component. If the
problem is not fixed, check the other components used with the player. If the problem still persists, contact
your nearest Pioneer authorized service center or dealer for service.

Symptom

No picture

automatically, or playback will
not begin.

Can’t record.

Can’t record in video mode on
DVD-RW.

During playback image is
distorted or dark.

Cause/Remedy

¶ Connect power cord to outlet.
¶ Check for proper connections.
¶ Change the video monitor or other input to the input connected to

the PRV-LX1.

¶ If a non-progressive-scan video monitor is connected to the

component video output connector and the Component output
is set to Progressive (525p), no picture will appear. Hold the
main unit’s front panel STOP button depressed while pressing
the cursor down button to switch the output to Interlaced (525i).

¶ When set to progressive scan (525P), no video image is output

to connectors other than the component output.

¶ When [Composite Out] is set to “Source Monitor”, during stop

mode or otherwise when no image in input to the composite
input, no image will be output to the composite output
connector. In the same way no sound will be output at the RCA
output connectors if no audio is input to the RCA inputs.

¶ Check your TV system mode setting.
¶ Insert the disc correctly in the disc table.
¶ Insert disc is with correct up-down orientation.
¶ Clean the disc.
¶ Confirm that the disc region number is proper for the player.
¶ Confirm that the type of disc is proper for the player.
¶ Check and eliminate any condensation inside the unit.
¶ A disc created on the PRV-LX1 that contains many titles may take

dozens of seconds to recognize when loaded. The DISC indicator
flashes and the disc recording and playback cannot be started
during disc recognition.

¶ Confirm that the HDD/DVD have adequate remaining capacity. If

HDD are full, erase unneeded titles to add available space.

¶ Confirm that you are not attempting to record copy-protected

material.

¶ With DVD-R/RW (video mode) discs, images which are

designated as “copy once only” cannot be be recorded.

¶ Check your TV system mode setting.
¶ Recording to Ver.1.0 DVD-RW discs is not supported. Be sure to

use discs labeled as Ver.1.1 or later (version number can be
found on disc jacket).

¶ If a disc’s playback image appears elongated vertically or

horizontally, use the [Aspect] command to change the aspect
ratio for your video monitor. If the setting cannot be made at the
recorder, use your video monitor controls.

¶ When using components that output images encoded with

analog copy protection signals, connect the component directly
to the video monitor as well.

¶ This unit supports analog copy protection systems. Some discs

contain analog copy protection signals, and when such discs are
played through a VTR, or recorded onto a VTR and then played
back, the copy protection signals may make proper playback
impossible. For these reasons, the PRV-LX1 should be connected
directly to the video monitor as well as to other components.
