  The DVD receiver might not start playback for several reasons. First, ensure that a disc is inserted, and the DVD or audio CD indicator is lit. Second, make sure you've inserted a playable disc, checking the disc type, color system, and regional code. Third, verify the disc is placed with the playback side down. Fourth, ensure the disc is placed correctly within the guide on the disc tray. Fifth, clean the disc if it's dirty.
