Page 1 of Technika DVD 1020 Problem

Hi folks

Just bought a Technika DVD 1020 player from Tesco. I bought the player for the bedroom, so as far as cheap and cheerful players go it`s excellent value for money -

Plays both DVD-R DVD-RW without any problems also CDs etc and mp3
Picture sharpness control
Bass and treble adjustment
Contrast, Brightness and Luma adjustment

All in all a fairly flexible budget player for under £70 quid.

So what is the problem? Simple but yet puzzling - the DVD palyer`s front panel `Menu navigation` button will allow up and down, and left to right movment but you CANNOT `select` anything in a DVD menu (I tried pressing the middle of the button but nothing happens). I have tried several discs but you cannot play a film unless you use the remote. So what is the point on having a menu navigation button on the player`s front panel in the first place! I went to Tesco this evening and tried another player and it was exactly the same so I presume it`s not a fault. Perhaps I`m a bit thick and missing something here?

Cheers

Use the Play/Pause button (2nd button down to left of the Menu navigation button) to select.
