JVC XV-M555 DVD player has the parental control set somehow. Need to know how to disable the parental control on this DVD player

Unfortunately there are no known ways to change the user code. The parental controls are set because it's a DVD player for kids - and you must input the password every time you want to play a DVD.

1369 is the code to allow you to play blocked movies. I still haven't found a way to change the level. Again, you have to input the code each time. I know it stinks, but I guess they didn't think of the parental feature in its entirety.

Hi, kindly get the code here : www.regionfreedvd.net/ www.dvdripper.org/dvd-region-codes-vs-ntscpal/ www.regionfreedvd.net/players.html

Well Girls and Boys that is to stop naughty people accessing media your parents prefer you not to see. Discuss the matter with them and don't try to subvert your parents concern for your mental healt by involving us in your naughtiness. These DVD's have codes applied and parents who paid for them know what sequence to enter on the remote to unlock them, so try asking them if its suitable for you and have THEM do it

you might have a burnt out lens, bring it to a repair shop to have it looked at

Below is the only known process to unlock that model of DVD player. Does not work on 100% of dvd players.

1. Turn on dvd player
2. Open the tray
3. Press 0000 in the Remote Controller
4. Change to any region you want (0 for region free)
5. Press Pause to confirm your change
6. Turn off
7. Turn on again and enjoy

Hope this works for yours, please post back if it does. Thank you for trying Fixya!

Here's a link to your specific manual. A quick help would be to choose no when it asks to temporarily allow playback. Then press shift and enter. Enter the password. Set the country code and playback level you want. You may have to play a different disc before you can play the original one you wanted to see. (the m555 has this glitch)
If you don't know or can't easily guess the password, check in the manual.

selfmade hack

1. Remove the top cover. 2. Locate wire jumper B532 o the printed circuit board nearby the front panel, it can be found just underneath the connector linking this board with the one above. 3. Cut bridge B532. 4. Apply power, PW (Password) appears on the display. 5. Enter the code 5963 with the remote controller, PW OK will be displayed. 6. Switch the set off and on ... and it will be zonefree !!!

Important information It seems that JVC received some complaints from the software industry that these players were much too easy to modify and they had to change the design to prevent further 'multi-zoning'! All sets with a serial number starting with 134xxxxx or 144xxxxx will normally need a new PROM to make them a real multizone machine! Don't despair if you have one of the newer types because there's a hidden multizone 'backdoor' ! Yes, the above mentioned modification will still work after you plug in the power cord, at this moment the set will play all zones as long as you don't switch it off with the standby button, once this happens it will be back to zone 2 and you'll need to unplug/plug in the power cord again to get it back to multizone. ATTENTION Opening your player will void the warranty! Modification are at your own risk! No guarantee for function!
