I am French and I live in US I bought a TV SAMSUNG 52' series 6-650 in US I bought a DVD PLAYER PIONEER DC 600 AV multizone able to read DVD from any zone. I can read DVD zone 1 but DVD zone 2 are in black and white May I do something on TV in order to read DVD zone 2 ? Thanks

If you're using the component video (three-cables) one of them is failing.

Hi , i am babu from bangalore , electronic items servicing person , if your pioneer dvd player problem is not yet solved means & if you are still interested in fixing it means then please let me know - mobile no - 9986222774

connect audio output (RCA Jack white n red color) from the video, to the audio input of your TV. Make sure you use same AV channel for the video and audio.
i.e AV1 or AV2 or AV3

The problem was the TV ( Samsung CB 5073 T). One or more connections on the AV plug in the TV had disconnected from the soldering and was repaired. The DVD was fine all the time.
Thanks again for your assistance

Hi,

Offhand in all probability and since the Samsung was bought in the US, it uses the NTSC color system. Even if the player is capable of multi regions including PAL/SECAM (Europe/region 2), the TV is not capable of displaying the other color system. Sorry, a multi system TV is also required.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

There is a problem with the AV2 input. Since this is a new set, return it for repair or exchange. DO NOT open it up as that would void the warranty.

Yes, but is easy if you have a A/V Receiver like a Marantz or Yamaha and put in the "MultiZone" Out, in Marantz you can see in your room example a Cable, and in MultiZone a PS3 DVD, 2 outs with 1 source (Receiver).

Region code hack posted by Tiger1, May 24 2007:

Hi I live in Australia and added this model.



acknowledging: Region code hack posted by ZoidsGodzilla, November 22 2006: for the Samsung DVD-V5600

1. Press the DVD button on your remote (the Samsung logo appears)
2. Press the SUBTITLE button on your remote
3. With your remote enter the code: 76884
4. The current region is displayed on the top left corner of the screen. (e.g. 4)
5. Press 9 on your remote (Region free)
6. Again press the SUBTITLE button on your remote
7. Enjoy the Region free player

If your player is NOT Region 4 by default then you will need to Substitute the Numbers in Step 3 with the ones Below.

Region codes:
RC 1: 2, 9, 3, 3, 4
RC 2: 3, 8, 7, 6, 7 (or 5, 7, 5, 3, 8 )
RC 3: 5, 6, 7, 3, 2
RC 4: 7, 6, 8, 8, 4
RC 5: 5, 3, 8, 1, 4
RC 6: 2, 4, 4, 6, 2

For Example if your Player was Purchased in the usa ( Which is Region 1) then Step 3 would read :-

3. With your remote enter the code: 129334

Have Fun :0)

If you have pets check your cables and make sure they haven't been chewed on or pulled out or even loose.

Follow the instructions on the following page to change the zone of your player:

I followed the instructions without updating the firmware and it worked for me. Hope this helps.
