NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

once again...i will have to tell you NOT to use PLAY 247 codes...these disable certain features of the DVD and are for use with GRUNDIG OR LOWE players...

You must use PLAY 159..but again..this is machine specific....

Go to my site to see the full list of codes...oh..and have a look at the FAQa as well..they may help
