I bought the LG DA-3525 set on Saturday here in Luxembourg, so I haven`t actually tried it myself - but the shop provided me with the following instructions - in French(!):

1. Turn on the DVD
2. Wait for the display to show "no disc"
3. Press the pause button on the remote control
4. Enter the code 314159
5. Enter code "0"
6. Press the pause button

Put the DVD on standby

Good luck!

Hello To You

I am thinking of buying a LG DA 3525.

Can you tell me if this code works please.

Many Thanks

Alan

I`ve not tried it myself as yet, kinda waiting for somebody else to be the guinea pig as it were, yours sheepishly...

I Got a LG (ZENITH) DA3525
I think I Found a way to play VCD. I could Play Most VCD`s Fine, but some VCD`S didn`t, but at least it can read it and won`t give you a DISC ERROR when you put VCD in the tray.
Anyways I tried many settings until I found one that worked best.
I think i can help you
give me more info from you drive 1st
do this

1-Power on the player with no disk in the drive

1- Press "PAUSE" on the remote

2-Enter "1472" on the remote (Write down the # you see on the desplay)

3-Press the UP arrow (Write down the # you see on the display)

4- Press the Up Arrow 2nd time and write the # you see again
So I need these info (when you press arrow up you see 1 --- something
arrow up again you see 2 --- something)

1 --- ??
2 --- ??
3 --- ??
4 --- ??
5 --- ??
6 --- ??
7 --- ??
keep pressing arrow up and writing down all # displayed until you back to 1 ---- ?? again. Then Press Return and you exit (Don`t worry nothing has been changed). After I get more info on your drive then I can tell you want to try

The 314159 hack is for multiregion not VCD.

Be careful when doing the VCD hack as if you get it wrong you will screw up your player.
