  Jessica HawkinsAug 19, 2025
  If your LG Home Theater System isn't playing DVDs or CDs, check these things: Is a disc inserted? If not, insert one. Is the disc a playable type, and is it compatible with the system's color system and regional code? Make sure the disc is inserted correctly, with the label side facing up. Also, ensure that the menu isn't open on the screen by pressing the SETUP button. Finally, check if a parental lock is enabled, preventing playback based on the disc's rating; if so, enter your password or adjust the rating level.
