Zenith Audio Players & Recorders - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support
Can anyone help me fix some record players?
It's possible that there could be a problem with both record players. Here are some things to check:
For the Swingmate Concert Hall Automatic Record player:
- Check to make sure the power cord is securely plugged in and that the outlet it's plugged into is working.
- Check to see if there's a power switch on the back of the record player that needs to be turned on before the main power switch can be activated.
- Check to see if the main power switch is stuck or blocked in some way. If so, try gently pushing or pulling it to see if it will move.
For the Zenith 4 speaker stereophonic record player:
- Check to make sure the power cord is securely plugged in and that the outlet it's plugged into is working.
- Check to see if there's a power switch on the back of the record player that needs to be turned on before the main power switch can be activated.
- Check to see if the knob is stuck or blocked in some way. If so, try gently pushing or pulling it to see if it will move.
- Check to see if there's a safety mechanism preventing the turntable from starting up. Some record players won't turn on if the tonearm is not in the correct position or if the record player cover is not closed.
If these suggestions don't work, it may be best to take the record players to a professional technician for further inspection and repair.
What does progressive scan mean?
Progressive Scan produces higher video quality than Interlaced Scan. If your TV is progressive scan compatible - and nearly all HDTV and DTV sets are - then a progressive scan DVD / Blu-Ray player / Home Theater System can give you a significant increase in perceived vertical resolution and a more detailed and film-like picture.
You can always switch to Interlace Scan mode (and vice versa) via the on-screen menus at any time if you prefer.
Just need to know how to hook up to tv to get
If you don't have a cable box or satellite receiver, you will use the "Audio Out" or "Monitor Out" from the TV to any audio input on the receiver. It's just a standard RCA cable or if you have an "Optical input" on the receiver, use that. If you are using a cable box or sat, the audio would come from the cable/sat receiver by standard RCA, Optical, or Digital Coaxial, whichever your AV receiver will support. Hope this helps. If you need further help, post a comment and I can walk you thru it.
Have dvd that say check regional code how do i do this ?
sounds like you have purchased the wrong region coded dvd`s when you bought them from amazon? if you are in the US you can only play Region 1, Europe is Region 2 and so on. Unless you purchase a mlti region machine which is obviously not what you want to do then the only other play of playing the wrong region discs is to buy a cheap dvd player which has "DivX" compatability which will play any region for you.

My zenith surround goes into protection mode after 15 minutes no sound
Disconnect your speakers when unit off and cold. Turn unit on and wait. If unit stays on, check speaker wiring for damage. Connect one speaker at a time with unit off and retest to find either a bad speaker or output channel problem. Repair speakers and wiring if found, or take unit for service, you have an overload problem.
