Troubleshooting
If you experience any of the following
difficulties while using the player, use this
troubleshooting guide to help remedy the
problem before requesting repairs. Should
any problem persist, consult your nearest
Sony dealer.
Power
The power is not turned on.
, Check that the AC power cord is connected
securely.
Picture
There is no picture/picture noise appears.
, Re-connect the connecting cord securely.
, The connecting cord is damaged.
, Check the connection to your TV (page 18)
and switch the input selector on your TV so
that the signal from the player appears on
the TV screen.
, The disc is dirty or flawed.
, If the picture output from your player goes
through your VCR to get to your TV or if
you are connected to a combination TV/
VIDEO player, the copy-protection signal
applied to some DVD programs could affect
picture quality. If you still experience
problems even when you connect your
player directly to your TV, please try
connecting your player to your TV’s S
VIDEO input (page 18).
, You have selected “PROGRESSIVE” in
“COMPONENT OUT” even though your
TV cannot accept the signal in progressive
format. In this case, set the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUT/SCAN SELECT switch on
the back panel of the player to
INTERLACE. When you can see the TV
screen correctly, set “COMPONENT OUT”
to “INTERLACE” and reset the
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT/SCAN
SELECT switch to SELECTABLE.
, Even if your TV is compatible with
progressive format (480p) signals, the
image may be affected when you set
“COMPONENT OUT” to
“PROGRESSIVE.” In this case, set
“COMPONENT OUT” to “INTERLACE.”
Even though you set the aspect ratio in “TV
TYPE” of “SCREEN SETUP,” the picture
does not fill the screen.
, The aspect ratio of the disc is fixed on your
DVD.
Sound

motion Play mode.
, The player is in fast forward or fast reverse
mode.
, If the audio signal does not come through
the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL or
OPTICAL) jack, check the audio settings
(page 73).
