	This is the hack to view the firmware version... it also shows the prom values which appear to be a set of registers composed of 2 hex numbers per register for any hackers that wish to experiment. with the power on press "SETUP" then choose TV ASPECT from the menu then move over to the option 16:9 wide press the numbers "1397139" press "ENTER" it should show the version and some other data press "setup" when u wish to exit it is a good idea to do this before u experiment with hacks so that u can write down the original values incase u need to restore them my values were as shown here: Model :DVD5201 Region No :1 Chip_ID :Pantera II LE Servo_Ver :V2.04 MP. Prom_Option :55 53 00 4C 12 55 01 FF Factory Reset .. Done note that my model is the same as the zenithdvd5201 and i assume that the my zenithdvd5551c has the same progaming as that model also note how my prom values change as i add hacks
