"Incorrect Disc Format"
I just bought a 20" LCD tv with a built- in dvd player. It is a " Go Video" from Soyo Group Inc. (now bankrupt!...go figure). Every time I try to play a dvd I get the message "incorrect disc format." I have read the manual insode and out, but I am unable to figure out what I am doing wrong. Any thoughts?

and putting it in the correct way round?
