Expert: loadedmind replied6 years ago. Welcome to JustAnswer! I'm John. First, let's start off by resetting PRAM/NVRAM. Doing so has resulted in several other users having success with resolving this problem. Here are the instructions for performing this step:Resetting PRAM & NVRAM----------------------------------- 1) Shut down the computer (Click Apple icon, choose Shutdown) 2) Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. Youwill need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4 3) Turn on the computer 4) Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this keycombination before the gray screen appears 5) Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup soundfor the second time 6) Release the keysIf the information I've provided meets with your approval and resolves your issue, please let me know and you can Accept the answer (and if possible, leave positive feedback).

Anyone have seen a message like this: "There was as initialization error. A valid video device could not be found for playback. [-70017]"? I have in my Powerbook G4 1.67GHz 15" OS 10.4.3. H/W is https://macosx.com/threads/dvd-player-error-70017.264664/ all OK (I run Apple Hardware test). I've trashed the DVD player preferences, Repair Disk with Disk Utilities, upgrade and downgrade DVD Player 4.6 to 4.6.1 to 4.6 and trash prefs again and repair and repair, change DVD Player with one version from 10.3.9 and the message is the same. I could use one version from a 10.3.8 bootable disk I have in a external HD (when booted from it) but, if started from 10.4.3 booting, I have the same 70017 error. I can't find nothing on the Web about this error... All other functions of de DVD hardware are OK. (read CDs and open Tost etc...) Just don't open DVD movies. I've run sbin/fsck -f and it's OK in the end. Any help out there? #1 mozlaf, Dec 12, 2005 (You must log in or sign up to post here.)

To fix this error, run the following commands in Terminal: Step 1 - Create a backup of DVDPlayback.framework sudo cp /System/Library/Frameworks/DVDPlayback.framework/Versions/A/DVDPlayback /System/Library/Frameworks/DVDPlayback.framework/Versions/A/DVDPlayback.bak Step 2 - Patch DVDPlayback sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x49\x6E\x74\x65\x72\x6E\x61\x6C|\x45\x78\x74\x65\x72\x6E\x61\x6C|g' /System/Library/Frameworks/DVDPlayback.framework/Versions/A/DVDPlayback Now playback, eject, and auto sleep should be working again. If these steps don't work, try copying the DVDPlayback.framework from a working Lion installation, then run the commands.

I'm getting the error by using ML DVD Player and I can see the dvd title in Finder which I can eject from there. Any ideas what causing this? marioesantana Joined: Mar 30, 2012 Messages: 10 Mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 CPU: Intel Core i7-2600K @ 3.4GHz Graphics: XFX Radeon HD 6870 2GB Mobile Phone: Aug 15, 2012 at 10:39 PM #3 marioesantana Joined: Mar 30, 2012 Messages: 10 Mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 CPU: Intel Core i7-2600K @ 3.4GHz Graphics: XFX Radeon HD 6870 2GB Mobile Phone: Attached is a copy of the DVDPlayback.framework from a working virtual copy of Lion. Move your current version of DVDPlayback.framework to the Desktop and extract the attached version in: /System/Library/Frameworks. Run the commands again, hopefully that should do the trick. Also included a patched version that you can try. Personally skipped patching the Mountain Lion framework, patched the attached one instead to fix the error. Let me know what you find
