Post subject: | [DVL-909] EU model does not play PAL discs/no PAL switching |
Hi just started to use this site for my laser disc collection, now my 1st post on the forum Ik have bought the DVL-909 EU model with 2 scart en the switch AUTO/PAL/NTSC It does not play PAL laserdiscs for some reason only NTSC, 12inch/8inch/5inch When I insert a PAL laserdisc, the player spins and shows LD but then the drawer opens again it on screen it says: "cannot be played" I have tried any position of the switch AUTO/PAL/NTSC, no difference, in all settings, a NTSC signal is coming out. I put some deoxit in the switch but the switch seems ok It seems that the switch to PAL is not happening for laserdisc, Has PAL some special adjustments pots for this switching? When I insert a PAL DVD however, it plays the DVD with no issues! So a PAL signal is coming out of the unit for DVD |

Hi again, is this with one particular PAL LD or does the same problem occur with other PAL discs? |

As far as I understand in my limited knowledge not that I know, of and I’m sorry I can’t offer any more assistance, hopefully one of the rather more knowledgeable guys on here will spot this soon to offer some advice of far greater benefit. In the meantime I’ll wish you the best of luck regarding solving this issue, you could of course perhaps just find yourself a nice and somewhat more reliable/less complex CLD-D925 and sell the 909 combi player on for spares or repair? |

OK, it is solved! after checking this post: DVL-909 converted to DVL-91 (DTS out): How to revert? I came quickly to the conclusion the DVL909 is modded and is a DVL91! of course NTSC only |
