If your stereo system isn't playing DVD's on a specific tv then there's a few ways to check for the cause of the issue. The first step is to check the connection to the tv, whether it's RCA cables # 324-000028 or HDMI # 324-000010. You can test the cables with different electronics or replace them to see if they were the issue. If you don't have anything physically connecting the tv and stereo together then that would also prevent you from being able to play your DVD's.

The next way to test for the cause of the issue would be to test the stereo with a different tv and the tv with a different DVD player to see if the issue lies with either component. If the stereo doesn't work with a second tv then it's likely the cause and would need to be replaced. If this is the case for you I'd need to know the cutout hole dimensions for your current stereo to find the correct replacement.
