Problem for GoVideo DV2150 DVD Player / VCR Combo

Parental screen coming up on a DVD. Not able to watch DVD.

I just rented the dvd "Across the Universe". IT's new. When i put the dvd with the film on it in the dvd player, I get a parental control screen that I can't get past. I can't watch the film. The feature dvd that came with it, works fine! Everything I have works fine. What's the deal? I have a GoVideo and have never had any problems with it.

-   OMG same problem 4 me, must be because of the Go Video vhs/dvd combo player....I didn't know anybody else also had one of these....I have watched alot of dvd movies on it but Across the Universe is the first one I have come across in the universe that has a parental block.....I also used the 3308 default code to unlock the parental block then hit stop and then play and after 2 days of phone calls to Blockbuster and almost throwing my player through the wall I am finally watching the damn movie....IT Better be good....-   Guest

-   I used the default code 3308 to change the password. Once I put the password in, there was just a blue screen. I pressed stop and then play again and it seems to be working. Good luck!

use password 3308 to change the parental control to 7, and the movie will run

Try this: Go into the setup menu, and choose autoplay- on. For us, this bypassed the parental control menu feature at the start up. Smehow, it was then playing with Spanish subtitles! :) lol but we just hit subtitle on the remote and they went away.

(I had the same problem with ATU today. Since we couldn't find the password that came with the unit, and 0000 didn't work, we were stuck.)

Goodluck!

You have the rating set on your DVD player to lower than the rating of the movie you are trying to watch.

Somewhere in your setup menu of your DVD player (press the "setup" button on the remote with disc stopped or no disc) you will find a place to set the parental lock. Either turn it off, if that is an option, or set it to the rating of the movie (or higher) to enable viewing.

I have the same problem.  I have tried all the solutions, and nothing is working.  I put it on progressive play.  Didn't really know what it meant, and now I'm stuck on blue screen.  The menu won't come up!!  Help!  Stupid, piece of ****!!!  Sorry, my bad.  What do I do now???

Same problem. Go Video combination DVD VHS player. DVD rented from Blockbuster online

We even found the universal remote code in our manual and it still doesn't work--we're going to try the autoplay feature mentioned!

Exact same issue on the GoVideo DV2150 with Across the Universe rented from Netflix. Tried disabling the parental code or changing it, to no avail. We'd never set it in the first place. We've used this DVD player for many, many DVDs of various ratings and this is the first time we've encountered this problem.  Across the Universe plays fine in other DVD players in the house.

I purchased the same video---Across the Universe and have the same problem with the parental control. This movie is rated PG-13. I don't have this problem when playing a movie that is rated R.
