20 Most Recent Coby DVD-224 DVD Player - Page 6 Questions & Answers

You can check this site for the remote. If this doesn't have the right DVD player there are other places to look for new remotes. Best Buy.com has a replacement parts section on the site and you can check by brand or model number of the DVD player.

I have a similar problem - did you manage to fix it?

Newer DVD224 is actually DVD-224ss - small print on front of manual. There are two possible hacks:

DVD224SS (This worked for me)
1. Open the DVD tray
2. Press STOP button on the remote control
3. Press 70
4. Press MENU
5. Use the numeric keypad to select your region code number (0 – 6).

OR

DVD224 (224SS)
1. Open the DVD tray
2. Press STOP button of remote control
3. Press the digit number buttons “2008” of remote control.
4. Press MENU
Region code will appear, select your region code number.

Try this, it is the only known hack for Coby R1000:

Coby DVD-R1000

1. Turn on the player (without a disc inserted)
2. Press STOP 2 x
3. Press SUBTITLE 5x
4. Press the button for the desired RC (0=codefree)

Let me know if it works.

I gave up on the cheap Coby unit and upgraded to a more expensive toshiba one.

you can reset the settings through the menu, its under the advanced option in the menu. however, its not a regional error, if it was in the wrong region, it would say wrong region and not wrong disk, try putting the region back to 1 or 0 or 9, 1 is USA, 9 and 0 are all regions.

Usually if your getting it with the MENU then your connection is weak, are you going through a VCR or some other type of device besides directly to the tv? Try hooking unit directly to the tv. Besides that, its possible you could of messed with the settings, go to the menu, go to advanced and do a reset to make sure no settings were adjusted, the disk has to be out of the tray while you do the reset.

i need the model number.

could try here for a guide.

I doubt you'll be able to find a service manual for this. You are best off opening up the unit to find the damaged resistors and replace them yourself.

if coby is an independent company you are out of luck. Is coby made by a "master company"? (e.g. orion is made by emerson and their codes work for orion products)

I have a COBY DVD player TF-DVD7005 that hadn't been used in a while. When I charged the battery and the light went from red to green, nothing happens when I push play and the DVD doesn't spin. Could the battery be dead despite the green light and where would I get a new one?

If everything else seems to be functioning, try using your remote to reset the TV. There is a setting to switch the TV from being a TV to being a screen, or monitor, for the DVD player. What the button is labeled varies by manufacturer. It may be: TV/DVD, input, source, display, or something else. Display, for instance, displays the choice on the screen. Highlight and select DVD or perhaps the brand name of the DVD player.
