Dvd players are designed to not allow you to play while driving (for safety reasons).

Whoever installed it in your old car had this feature bypassed.

You need to obtain a wiring diagram for the unit, and find the wire labeled to go to the parking brake.

This wire will either have to be grounded / ungrounded, or powered / unpowered in order to "trick" the unit into thinking that your parking brake is on.
