Video won't play

When I try to play a video, it has a blue screen and says " WARNING PLEASE STOP WATCH VIDEO PLAYER". How do I get videos to play?

  • cmweaver Apr 23, 2009

    It is a xovision xo1945. I connected the black wire to the other black wire, but I didn't connect any parking brake wire.

    What kind of brand model screen is it. Also have you connected the parking brake wire or did you just gound it out?

I don't know about stereo installation but a customer at walmart wrote this review so it seems it worked for them. Also I have an exact unit with the only difference being that mine is sold as "DP Video, model: DP432" but everything is the same as your unit and it works fine.

"I am happy with this product and it works great. I read before I bought it that a customer was dissatisfied because it had to be in park to work, but if you ground out that wire it works fine all the time. Clear screen and its not too small like some of the others I've seen. I would definitely recommend this product."

Anyways, my advice is that you have it professionally installed to get it right, if you did then take it back to your installer and let them know it's not working right.

I am not sure about that brand but you are relly supposed to connect the wire coming out of the back of the screen that says "parking brake wire" to the cars parking brake wire or it can by green, black , or several other colors depending on the manufactor. If you do not do that and you just connect that wire to the ground wire "the black one" and it does not work the the screen most likely needs to have some sort of reaction to happen. try turning the unit on then grounding the black wire (the one coming from the unit that should be connected to the vehicles parking break wire) . You may have to install a switch if this works. If you still have the manual look and see if it tells you if the is a sequence like turn on the unti then apply the parking brake release it then reapply and this will tell you how to wire up the switch.

This is a problem with break wire. I too expierienced this. It is NOT a problem with radio. You need to ground the break wire in the harness. It is a protection wire so that it knows the emergency break is on. In other words it is supposed to stop you from watching movies while driving. Grounding the wire disbales the feature thinking the break is on. If you want to use the safety feature properly it should be connected to the emergency break switch that is grounded when pulled up or on.

My new radio plays every thing but when i put a dvd it says warning please stop watch vedio player . you can hear the movie but there is no picture

the parking brake wire must be connected to the parking brake system of you car. When the parking brake is engages, the LCD will be allowed to view your video. If not, the screen will produce an image saying, parking brake. this is a feature designed for the driver not to watch a video while driving. The video output on this unit will not be affected by this, el wire to connect is Pink - parking brake. this is wire connect with ground.

"WARNING STOP WATCH WATCH VIDEO" and no sound

Follow the following steps to overcome this problem:
  1. Locate the "Brake" wire (usually the pink wire).
  2. Connect the "Brake" wire to a negative point, e.g. body of vehicle.
  3. Test by playing a DVD and your problems have been solved.

Blue screen

that's because it is illegal to drive and watch video at the same time. there is a wire which needs to be connected to the ebrake wire.

DVD movies do not play

A blue screen means the TV is not receiving a video signal. Check all connections, then try another player, cable, etc. Also, check DVD and TV AV settings.

Blue screen will not go away

The problem is that you're trying to bypass a safety feature. Newer video head units are smart enough to know when you've just grounded the brake switch wire so you can watch it while you're driving. Try hooking it up to your parking brake wire.
