Too ez, you have to bypass it. Once the car reaches 20mph the DVD will not play. Look up and google bypass for this radio. Its a simple splice of the mute wire and a power wire. It been so long I cannot remember how to do it. Just google AVIC-X940BT bypass and the steps are simple. If not take to a small radio shop and they can do this for around 30 bucks. Don't buy and extra parts, its not needed.

Yeah, in my case, I know it isn't a firmware issue. At this point, my player no longer reads/plays any discs at all. It is pretty much dead in the water for discs. It can still do online stuff, but I have a 360 for that. I talked to LG and they suggest sending it in for repairs, but I've read nothing but negative comments from people who have tried that route. Thanks for the help with the Oppo. It might be the way to go. If anyone else wants to add their 2 cents, I'd appreciate it.

Sorry but I will need more information. What do you mean by "stop after 15 min" ? Was it no power at all or would not play a DVD? I have been using my Sony for years and occasionally have to unplug it and replug it in to clear internal glitches, but other than that I have had no trouble at all.

Had the same problem with Universal discs... Tech support no help... finally found out that if I pulled the USB drive out they would play (without the internet features of course). Now I am finding the Star Wars Blurays won't play... All play fine in the Playstation though :|

You are going to need a Adapter... Best to go see the RV people.. And see what they can tell you..... There must be someway.... All kinds of people have a DVD player in there RV's.. P.S.. If you do a update on the firmwhere deal... It may not play the everyday DVD'S.. I did the update. And my everyday DVD's stopped working on it..

This happened to me as well, when trying to play a home-burned DVD-R on an older Sony DVD player. Many of the players that are more than about 5 years old don't seem to recognize DVD-R burned discs, only commercial "pressed" DVDs. The only thing I was able to do was buy an inexpensive newer DVD player (I got a new Sony player for about $40) and it plays all of my home-burned discs just fine.

I don't know. I haven't been able to get the dvd part of the tv to work. My son - the electronics "expert" - has not been able to get it to work. He says I should contact the manufacturer. I bought the tv online, it's not worth my time and effort to dig" just to get the dvd player to work, so I just don't use the dvd part. The tv is fine. I can probably contact Amazon, but I have not -- too much trouble for such a small amount of money. The moral of the story is, "You get what you pay for" ???? ...or maybe I should contact Amazon.I don't think a stand-alone dvd/blue player costs that much.

Hi Shelley,I sent you a post in another discussion. It seems the Netflix movies are giving me grief!! I'm trying to watch Michael Clayton, and my player says its incompatible. I'm having a tough time installing the firmware update as well... the machine can't seem to locate the dang file on my jump drive. Oh well, maybe the disc is bad.Cheers!

Ronald, Here is an idea. Use an older DVD player that has a coaxial connector input on the back and a RCA or RGB output. I also broke the RG6 Coaxial Cable connector on the back of my TV. I was able to watch my TV through the DVD player. It is a quick fix, but at least your TV will still work.

Good question! I have the same problem! The dvd is STILL in the tv - since SEVERAL months ago. In other words, don't get this tv and expect it to play DVDs. Even my tech savvy son can't remove it without possibly causing damage. (Maybe I'll ask RCA now that you have reminded me.)

Yes. Mine broke and will not play anything. I would look at another dvd player.

So, it can't burn DVDs to be watched on a traditional DVD player, but can it play DVDs? Also, another customer mentioned that it can't play a u-tube video, is that true?

Mine plays any type DVD I've put in it. I didn't have to change any thing. Perhaps you screwed something up by changing to PAL. Did it come with instructions? I'd advise reading them. I had no problem, I took it out of the box, plugged it in and it's been working ever since. I've played region 2, 3 and others without having to change any settings or do anything.

Thank you, Paul! I have the disc and the "Quick Setup Guide", but don't seem able to play certain DVD's.

I never had to do any of that with mine, thank goodness. I use DVD-R, I burned, I finalized, and they play in my Samsung and my Mac Mini's drive.I had something odd happen the other day, though; a DVD I ordered from Netflix wouldn't play, even after I cleaned it up, but same DVD would play in my computer's drive. It was a foreign film, but I wonder what it was about a commercial disc that would make the Samsung spit it out every time, telling me "please check the disc"? That's the only time that's happened! I wonder if by now it's time to clean the laser.

I have a problem with this Blu-Ray player, too... but my problem is different. The system sound is fine, and it plays regular DVDs just fine... but if we try to play a Blu-Ray, the play keeps getting interrupted and/or randomly skipping forward or backward by itself. We even took the batteries out of our remote control thinking maybe that was the problem, but the system still randomly stopped/skipped around in playing the Blu-Ray. Any ideas?
