      Michael WilsonAug 23, 2025
      If the picture on your Panasonic DVD Player is distorted, ensure that the equipment is connected properly. Make sure the television is on and that the television’s video input setting (e.g., VIDEO 1) is correct. If ghosting occurs when progressive output is on, press [PROGRESSIVE OUT] to turn it off. To adjust the picture, go to the Video menu in the ACTION screen and change “TV Aspect” to suit your television. Ensure that the unit is connected directly to the television and not through a video cassette recorder. You can also check the settings in the on-screen menu’s video menu and adjust the horizontal position with the on-screen menu icons.

If you have forgotten your ratings password, while stopped, press and hold [5] and [6] on the unit and then also press and hold [7] on the unit until “Initialized” disappears from the television.
