RE: Help! My Philips 711 is locked-up!

Amir S,

Thanks for the code, it did the trick! Player is now back to normal. Does this reset the 25 times counter as well?

Thanks again
Oliver

Help! My Philips 711 is locked-up!

After following the region hack for the Philips 711, it played Region 1 without trouble, but when I changed it back to R2 it locked-up.

The disc gets loaded, read and then the whole thing hangs. Power switch and eject don`t work. The only remedy is to pull the power cord, disc will then eject, but still not play.

Any ideas anyone?

BTW, after entering the hack codes, my screen goes blue not red. Is this an updated unit?

This is my first attempt at hacking, maybe I`ve missed something obvious?

Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

Can DVD players replace CD players?

I`ve been asked if a mid-priced DVD player can replace a CD player for music playback. I have not noticed much of a difference, but I have read that hi-fi playback is compromised in some players. Has anyone got any facts/firsthand experience in this area?

Thanks

Oliver
