Multi region upgrades

We receive DVD based products such as DVD Players/Recorders and Home Cinema systems as region 2 from the manufacturer. These products are modified at customer request to multi region when you place an order for a multi region version of a product. If you buy a multi region product and want to play a NTSC discs (usually region 1 USA is the most popular) a compatible tv will be required. It is up to you to check that your television is compatible with NTSC before you purchase a multi region product . If a NTSC disc plays perfectly but you experience a black and white picture or other distortion on the picture, this means that the player is multi region but your television is not compatible with NTSC. The multi region upgrade we perform will be compatible with most DVD titles currently sold (discs form Region 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) however new release of software in the future may be incompatible with the multi region upgrade; in which case a subsequent multi region upgrade may be required. There will be an additional charge for this. This does not affect any other statutory rights you may have.

Pixel Defects

ISO 13406 is an international manufacturing standard which addresses Plasma/LCD display image quality. Pixel defects are among the quality issues defined. Due to the nature of the manufacturing process, occasional defects can occur. Pixel defects or failures cannot be fixed or repaired and can happen at any stage in the Plasma/LCD’s life.To regulate the acceptability of defects and to protect the end user, ISO have created a standard for manufacturers to follow. ISO 13406-2 recommends how many defaults are acceptable in a display before it should be replaced, within the terms & conditions of warranty. Generally pixel defect is not a problem considering that on a high definition Plasma/LCD there are over one million pixels contained within the screen. Manufacturers will follow ISO 13406-2 and review pixel outages on a case-by-case basis. Multizoneav is not obligated to replace any plasma/LCD TVs with Pixel outages. This is a manufacturer problem. The full specification for the acceptance number of pixel failure on a screen may be viewed in your user manual or the manufacturers website.

Screen Burn on Plasma, CRT & Rear Projection TV

Burn in’ is caused by displaying a static image. This means a fixed image that has been displayed on the product causing an ‘after-image’ on the screen. How to prevent this phenomenon is clearly mentioned within the users manual of the product. This is excluded from the manufacturers terms of warranty.
