Question about Apex Digital GT1417DV 14 in. TV/DVD Combo

1 Answer

Can't play DVDs

The TV works perfectly. The DVD player can load a DVD and play all the previews until it gets to the main menu and then it will not actually play the DVD. When I press the play button on the TV or the remote, a little white hand pops up on the upper left hand corner. What does that mean and what can I do to fix it?

My DVD and VCR in one has always played DVDs, and now when I tried to play a DVD, it says playback feature may not be available on this disc. I've played the same DVD on the same tv perfectly before!!
sometimes the discs get scratched enough that the player has difficulty reading them, using some car wax on the disc to clean it may help

On many, but not all, dvds the tv picture has four rows of short white lines, intermittently. The dvds play perfectly on other equipment. Looks something like this: - - - - - - - - - - - - - ...
do all those faulty DVDs belong to same category?

Toshoba tv/dvd combo. won't play many dvd's. makes clicking sound as it tries to load movie?
Dear Lesley!
It looks, like your DVD lens might get contaminated with dust and/or dirt, which is being picked up off DVDs. Let's try to load music CD, instead or DVD. If it loads well, I will suggest, that your DVD player is at fault and you must give up using it. External basic DVD players are quite inexpensive and easy to connect to your TV. But: if no CD, nor DVD load, the solution might be much simpler: use lens cleaner CD with brushes. good ones might even have a special fluid, which applied to brushes(alcohol based). Just load it into your TV's player and follow audible directions. After couple attempts, your lens should be clean enough to play DVDs. Please, don't try to use any "ear swabs", instead. The lengths is not long enough, plus it may damage load mechanism or get stuck inside. I've seen such a cases lately.
Good luck,
Thank you,
Alex.

Black rectangle at bottom of screen when playing dvds on sony dvd player
Had the same problem but was able to fix it by simply doing the following:
"this is closed captions turned on your TV. get your original TV remote and look for a button that says "Captions" or "CC", and keep pressing it until the TV says "Off". if it doen't have one of those buttons, you will need to get into the menu of the TV and turn off closed captions there. It is probably set on "Text1 or Text 2" right now, and it needs to be set on "Off"
