GPX portable DVD model PD808B - wrong region message

I bought a new GPX portable DVD model PD808B and when I tried to put in a regular DVD to play, as it tries to load the DVD I get a message that says "wrong Region" and then it stops.

Any idea how to get the player to work?

Thanks!

Turn on power. Open lid. Enter 9735 with the remote and press 'enter', you can now choose between regions on the screen. Select the desired region unlock and press 'enter'. This works well!

DVD region codes prevent people from playing import DVDs they legally bought. This is even worse with laptops because if you have your laptop overseas, you probably can't play any DVDs sold in that country.
You can download a region-free DVD player on your laptop and then you can play DVDs of any region codes. You can try Leawo Blu-ray Player which is a free and region-free Blu-ray/DVD player program for Windows and Mac.

Wrong region
probably you are trying to play a disc that is not zone free or you need a code for your player to make it zone free. you may be playing a zone 2 disc ( PAL) on a machine that only takes zone 1 (NTSC) or vica-versa.

Gpx portable dvd player will not play videos comes up err disk, ut will play a music video and memory card for my camera. I ran a disk cleaner a few times but still nothing
The error disc usually means a dirty or bad optical pickup in the unit--DVD are more complex than CD etc and blu ray even more so.

Audio no picture
do you get a splash screen when there is no Disc playing ( something that says something like DVD VIDEO). If not and the scren is just always black then it sounds like the backlighting circuit has failed

My portable dvd player will not maintain a charge. It will play while plugged up but the battery is not keeping the charge. It is the GPX PD808B model.
If you are fast, you can get a slightly used GPX PD808B car charger and battery on eBay for $20.

Dvd plays but no sound
There is a loose connection or a component (probably a capacitor) on its last legs. It will take a technician to locate the connector or component .

portable DVD's encounter that problems more often.because of its folding action,the flat wire connecting the screen to the DVD board breaks and causes no picture.try to open it up and check it or bring to a tech.

DVD Player D1816 shows Wrong Regional Disc message
Many DVD players are preset to one region and if you use a DVD destined for any other region, the player will refuse to play. Some players have the option to change this to universal mode. Check your player's manual if yours has this facility.

Yes. You can play VCD movies and and Audio CDs on most players.

GPX PD808B Portable DVD Player
The pin on a regular 3.5mm av to rca is TOO SHORT. If you get the unit from GPX, you'll note it is a bit longer. I found this problem also affected Sony and other portable DVD players - the regular 3.5mm plug is TOO SHORT. I haven't found a source other than GPX for the av cable with the correct length plug. Weird but true.
