Hi,

Most branded DVD's have a country code programmed in it.
There is no code to reset it.
It is better you buy a local chines make kinda dvd palyer. It will play all and comes cheap.

HELLO
This sounds like the old problem of your player trying to play a disc from another region, when your player is set for another. What you need to do is HACK the player and set it for ALL REGIONS (0), usually via the remote control.

You will find hacks for many makes and models listed here. Contrary to belief, it is NOT illegal to hack a DVD player.

dvd player on 
open tray 
(no disk inside) 

1. Turn on the player. 
2. Open the tray. 
3. Press the following sequence on the remote: 9-9-9-9-0 
4. The number 0 will appear on the lower left side of your screen. 
5. Your player is now region free! Put in a DVD and enjoy!
NOTE: The 0 in the sequence above represents the region code. 0 = region free. If you want to change your player to just a specific region code, replace the 0 with the region number you want.

ewaltercat,;

I guess the problem was in internal., you try to open case and while operated with disc watch if the optical lens working, may also try to open region code to "0" or multi region

posible problem "NO DISC"

a. Optical Lens
b. FCC wire
c. Mpeg Board
d. Wrong Region

- Press "System Menu" key to enter Set Up menu.
- Move to "Preference Page" using arrow keys to the left or to the right.
