Hi folks,
Just had a 'Sharp' 22 in where DVD played monochrome. Had it in a year ago for duff Schottky issues where the DVD worked OK.
Puzzled - But noted an entry by 'Watteau' John a while back which sorted the problem.
Modified it a bit due to local experience - Chris.
To access service mode with some slot-in dvd used in JMB, Bush, Murphy, Toshiba etc.
Input select DVD
Press 'DISPLAY' (WITH NO DISK IN), then, 1, 3, 5, 7 (or 1.3.7.5 John says)
Change REGION CODE to '0' for all regions (from whatever).
If patterning after changing the DVD assembly in 'VIDEO', change CVBS TO Y/C
(can sometimes give a monochrome picture if set incorrectly)
On some models the 'Navigate' button (the button with 'OK' at the centre)
just moves the selection up/down, but on others, they have this effect:
UP - REGION ADJUST (set to 0)
LEFT - SPDIF (set to 2 menu select)
RIGHT - DVD GROUPF/DIVX (set DIVX to off)
DOWN - VIDEO Y/C or CVBS (set to CVBS)
(Checked my own working Digihome)
When finished, go to STANDBY, then switch on again to STORE. (If you don’t, it won’t work, probably coming on in B&W)
Regards,
John (Watteau)
