hi guys,

I am facing a problem with philips dvd 5106k

The other day while a dvd was playing my 3 yrs old nephew pressed some buttons on the player and the dvd player stopped playing the movie for some time.:S

Since then its asking a password for some dvds.

It gives a message of " enter password":huh:
dunno what to do.

it plays some dvds fine though.
any solutions???

@ draz 4 ur info dvd players do come with parental locks,seems like the kiddo jus enabled it,nice huh
kid enables parental lock leading to no parental viewin,then i guess the name justifies it :pthese days everything with a parental lock is easily broken/used by kids n hard for parents 2 get around with lol:p

Ring the philips call center ask for technicle help.Or otherwise visit a philips showroom,they can be of some help.There should be a way to deactivate the parental lock thingy without having to give the password.

log onto philips india and visit the service centre to get the lock de-activated.

Hi All,

I bought 5106K/97 in India and was using it for quite a while without any problems. Oddly enough, I brought this player with me to the USA and the image quality is jerky (or should I say the image runs from bottom to the top) and am not able to view the picture clearly. What could have been the reason? I checked with the player and it supports 110V/60Hz to 240 V/50Hz and also support PAL/NTSC switch over. Could this have been the problem? I am not able to switch to NTSC since the image of the menu itself is not clear to make this adjustment in the DVD Player. My TV here is a basic one and just has AV out (not even component though the player has and also no NTSC/PAL switchover). Can anybody help me??

Regards,

Sriram G
