primera dvd player

[mojo]

Wham now fellahs

mih neighbour have a primera 2000 model cvt m6......come with dvd screen, dvd player in the back, and 6-disc cd changer

he tell me the dvd player not working...he put in dvd's....but nothing playing

and of course on the screen everything is japansese (real lame)

anyone know about this.....any primera owners can lend some advice, where he can go to check it out??

easy solution the dvd player that came with the car plays dvd's from the reigion that the car was made
the dvd's u are using is from North America and it is a different region hence why it would not play

yuh sure the "dvd player" is not really the navigation unit???? just asking based on my experience with the Galant, that has this nav box in the trunk which I originally thought was a dvd player......

sounds like you need a mod on it, i remember a friend tell me he see someone play U.S dvd's on they primera wagon....go ask....put in a japanese dvd and it go play

I was wondering if there was any way to say add a PC in the car and use that screen? so all the output from the computer would be on the touch panel screen in the dash.

Try using a DVD that is region free, ie does not have a region code encoded on it. If it plays then it's definately a region problem, otherwise it's not a DVD player.

yeh most of those navication sytems, u eject the JAPANESE DVD which has japanese navigation info on it and if possible put in a north america or even a trinidad (yeh rite !) nav disc in it. many times though that nav dics is really hidden away well.

wen u do this, all th japanese writign ond screen supposed to be programmed to enginlish now.

i dunno where to get these discs eh.. iwas told this info by trinis who went to japan to buy cars for their business
