Question about RCA RTD300 System

DVD Player Suddenly the DVD player reads "locked". It will not open, there is no DVD in it and I have never programmed any parental control into it. I tried holding the "on" button for 8 seconds as per the manual, this does nothing (but turn the unit on or off). How do I unlock the darn thing? Thanks for any help you can offer.

The DVD player reads "LOCKED" that flashes eight times whenever I try
to open the dvd tray. It started doing this suddenly, and without any
apparent reason. As Jaxjag's said, I haven't put any parental
progamming on it, and nothing seems to help.

If you hold the power button for more than 8 seconds it will lock the whole system. unplug it and see if that fixes it, if not press and hold the power button on the remote.

Does anyone know the password to unlock parental lock on a Copy DVD R1300? Tia!

The parental lock is not on the DVD, it is on the player itself. Only mummy and daddy can turn it off. The player reads the parental code on the DVD and the DVD Player locks access.

High school musical dvd player parental control password

ok I have got the manual and for parental options it says

The parental option anebles parents to prevent their children from watching inappropriate material on a dvd. It reads the ratings for programming, then denies access to programmnig if the program's rating meets the limitations you selected. In this case, the user will have to enter a 4 digits security password, then press enter button.

The password in my book is forward button,backward button, forward button, backward button.
tahts the ones with the 2 arrows on.

I hope this helps i need the help line no because my little girls remote does not work with her player.

DVD players don't need parental locks. When a user places a DVD player in Parental Lock mode, they usually create a 4-digit access code to remove the lock. Without the manual, I can't tell you how to reset to factory settings...what you need is either the access code or to reset it.

If it came direct from the factory with a parental lock already on, try the code "0000". If you need more digits, just use 0 until all of the slots are filled. If 0 does not work, try all 1s or 9s.

Dvd troubles

Same problems with my unit. But, try this... I think it worked. First, you can not get to the setup screen for the unit with a DVD in the player. So, remove the DVD first: Unplug the unit, wait a few seconds, plug it back in. Then hit the DVD open button and remove DVD in player.

I think the issue with not reading certain DVDs is a problem with the "parental control" on the unit. Without setting parental control there were a few DVDs I could not play and sometimes (not always) I was asked about parental control before a movie would play. At the Sony Blue DVD screen, select Setup on the remote control. Select DVD setup and get to Parental control. Set a password. This will then take you to a "rating" screen. By setting the rating very high (I set mine for #8) any movie should play without needing the password. With no password set, you can not change the "rating" and hence mine was set at #1 (kids). It seems to have worked for now anyway. Good luck.

How do you reset the parental control code?

Called Zenith. They said: turn on the DVD player. Hit "set-up". Scroll down to the "lock" icon. Scroll over to "Rating". Scroll over to unlock. Enter 0000. Click on Ok. Enter 0000 again, click Ok again. Menu should read unlock. Voila!
