20 Most Recent Oritron NPD3117 DVD Player Questions & Answers

i have the same machine. it does the same thing. if you just let it sit for a few minutes, it will start up and play. hope this helps.

Is this a retail copy of a DVD? If so then is the other side of disc usuable? Sometimes the DVD manufactures will use double sided discs meaning you have to flip them over. If there is printing on the other side than it is not of this type but if both sides are shiny and look the same try to flip it over. Maybe if you have some DVD software program on your computer and can open and explore the disc in 'My Computer' and select your D drive or whichever the disc is in. You must right click and then explore. You will see a file called video ts and go into that one and you can open the files to view them in your software program such as Nero Showtime or realplayer or any other. You can go down the list and see if you can find any other episodes. I hope this helps alittle. If not return the disc for a new one maybe it was a defect from manufacture. Also i do see some of the remotes on ebay for under 5 dollars might be worth a shot to get a new remote there. Good luck with this.

You have to blindly instruct the NTSC/PAL menu item, which toggles between NTSC and PAL;
This is how it is done:

1) turn your dvd player off.
2) Turn it back on and make sure there is no DVD in the player tray.
This will ensure the menus are active
3) Using the remote, press the dowm menu selector key exactly three times
4) press the center menu select key once.
This will activate the display adjustement menu
5) press the down menu key exactly once.
This will activate the NTSC/PAL menu
6) press the center menu key
DONE.
The player should now have switched back to NTCS if it was in PAL.

IF it was in NTSC it should have switched back to PAL.

Note: If you still have the manual you can follow the menu tree blindly using the instructions in the manual. The above sequence is for activating the NTSC/PAL menu.
This player can also switch to progressive scan, which creates a similar problem. At least the progressive scan menu has enough warnings before it will actvate.

after unsuccessfully trying to naviagate the menu , i unplugged the dvd player for 10 or 15 min. then plugged it in again and changed the output i had it plugged into,,from video 1 to video 2 and i got my picture back it seems fine now

i have dav2503 and i cant get it out of pscan how do i fix it?

It is a virtually unknown make, and there is no manual online. https://www.google.com/search?q=Oritron+DVD+3116+manual There is a workaround though. Use a Smartphone with the Google Translate app on it and use the camera feature to translate what you are seeing in real time. https://www.google.com/search?q=google+translate+app+camera+function https://www.google.com/search?q=google+translate+app+camera+function ..

Phase Alternating Line (PAL) is a colour encoding system for analogue television used in broadcasttelevision systems in most countries broadcasting at 625-line / 50 field (25 frame) per second (576i) NTSC is the video system or standard used in North America and most of South America. In NTSC, 30 frames are transmitted each second. Each frame is made up of 525 individual scan lines. You might try disconnecting all power from the system. unplug it. disconnect the TV. Power back up. Maybe it will reset to factory settings. See if your TV will have a switch to NTSC.
