AndromedaSS Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Soo.. we tried to play three different DVDs in the new navigation system. (stock GM one) YES we were in Park.. and we kept getting Disc Read Error..... but the manual says that this truck will play DVDs on the Navigation display... help? How do we get it to work??? Its a total waste of money if its JUST the navigation.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndromedaSS Posted August 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Nobody has any thoughts on this??? Ive already put in a call to Chevrolet customer care.. the dealership was unable (or unwilling) to exchange it back for my original radio... (I bought the navigation system when I bought the truck two weeks ago.. they installed the nav yesterday.. I DONT like it...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireRescueSS Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Does the manual say how to play DVD's? Follow the instructions, and there should be an audio section in the factory manual for the truck, for all audio set-ups for that year. Other then that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fast4popper Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Its a DVD ROM system, NOT a DVD video system. It is designed to play navigation DVDs and that is all. ALTHOUGH there are several companies out there that make an interface that allows you to add a DVD player so that you can view DVD Video on the screen, Hope this helps. I know its not the answer you want to hear, but it is what it is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its not the answer you want to hear, but it is what it is... Yup Yup, the navigation CDs are really DVDs (they have a TON of info on them), and the NAVI unit reads those disks, not actual movies. Like fast4popper said, there are a couple of kits out there that you can buy and install to push DVD movies to the navi screen... Short of a full blown aftermarket DVD player (which would've been wiser than going stock IMO), that's your best bet...

Chevrolet SS Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 if they sold it to you under the impression it will play DVD Video and its only been a few days they should take it back, it may take a little work but, if they told you one thing and you got another... they kinnda have too.
