DVD Code Problem No FVU

Panasonic has the owner's manual for the DMR-EZ48V on their product support page. Go to http://shop.panasonic.com/shop/model/DMR-EZ48VK and click on the Owner's Manual tab (second from the left). The direct link to the manual is http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/DMREZ48V-MUL.PDF . (Note: this is the US version of the DMR-EZ48V.)

I hope this helps.

Either a dirty or a bad optical pickup in the DVD unit--one or the other.

Insert a lens cleaning disc into it and let it play. If this do not help you, the optical pickup unit to your playder is faulty, and should be replaced.

You can download the user manual for this unit from this links.

This is happening because your DVD is NOT all region, you need to change the Code.

Ok check those links out they will help you sort it.

Check Panasonic.com for Firmware updates. If it has a reset button reset it. Take off the cover remove dust and lint, also clean laser eye with rubbing alcohol. DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE LASER LENS IF YOU PLUG IT IN, DURING THE OPERATION.

Hello,
I get exactly the same problem with my Panasonic EZ48 recorder.
It also displays FM List DL error .It sometimes sorts itself out by holding the on switch for 20 seconds.

My Panasonic DMR-EZ25 is asking for a LD FVU disk? (HELP)

had the same LD FVU (Load FVU or firmware disc) message and fixed it this way: download firmware from http://www.pasctraining.panasonic.com/specialapplications/productfirmwaredownloads/DVD.ASP and make firmware disc and insert. After it loads and updates, you need to activate your remote again. When the message SET 1 appears, on the remote press ENTER and 1 together for 10 seconds. Done.

Hi Turtis,

Did you ever solve this?? I have a similar problem on my DMREZ25EB and got told it could be resolved by updating the firmware which is what the FVU is meant to mean. However, I can't find my version of the Firmware on the panasonic.com site. If you solved this could you let me know what you did.

Thanks,

Vee.
