They will give a local dealer's

When contacted, they will give your local dealer's number and when you call them, you'll be asked to furnish the MODEL number of your DVD player upon which they'll walk to thru troubleshooting.

Have you checked the region in your Disc Properties? Go into Disk Management, find your dvd and right click on it. Go into the properties and you will see a heading for Regions. In there it explains a bit about regions, which should be at 2. If it is not, then change it to 2. Let me know if this doesn't help.

Portable 7-inch DVD player

No hack for this player! Best idea is burn region free copies with Anydvd (by Slysoft)and dvd shrink (both free but Anydvd will ask for a fee eventually)
Anydvd strips out all the regions

Movie does not play

Try playing Different DVDs, Second Make sure which Region Disk your playing is it Region 1 or Region 2, If your DVD player is Manufactured in USA it plays only Region 1, If its manufactured in UK it plays only Region 2, If still you face same problem Use Lens Cleaner, If still you face same problem do Reset.
To Reset Dvd player, Remove DVD from Dvd Player, Unplug Power chord from Walloulet for 15minutes so player goes to Defult Factor Settings, Then plug back again Power chord. Turn on Dvd player insert DVD, It should Play or else Claim Warranty.
