Hi

You switched to PAL mode from NTSC or vice versa. Most DVDs will only output PAL or NTSC, not both. So even if the disc is region ffree, the fact that it's encoded in PAL (50hz) makes it appear like you describe - no vertical hold / black and white.

Some set top players [Apex, Phillips] will convert PAL to NTSC on the fly or vice versa.

Remember, PAL/NTSC is not the same as Region.

Here's some detailed info:

You can convert the DVD to NTSC, and strip the region code by following http://www.videohelp.com/guides/how-to-convert-interlaced-pal-dvd-to-ntsc-dvd-id1107#1107

What DVD



Most players are either NTSC or PAL, however increasingly DVD players from the Far East (Apex, Phillips etc)


, which is 50hz instead of 60hz, hence the lack of vertical hold

How is the dvd player connected to the tv?

insert the dvd disc from other region then the region code error will flash on the tv screen, then press the on screen button on your remote twice, then search search for the clock and set it to 0:00:00 and enter and it will automatically play.

This unit is hard-wired to be the region for which it was sold;sorry...accordianman

Problem: All DVDs would not play in Jensen MVB85A overhead 8.5 DVD player. Error code: "Incorrect Region Code"

FIX:

1. Use the remote to power on DVD player
2. Ensure there are NO DVDs in the drive
3. When you see the DVD logo screen, press 9653 on the remote
4. A hidden menu will open stating the region code. My region code was set to 0 and my I was receiving the error.
5. Press the "OK" button to change the Region Code to "1".

Once the region code was set to 1 all DVDs were playing.

Key words: Jensen Audiovox MVB85 incorrect region code
