Are you sure that the Apex tv audio input is not a combined Left/Right Input Jack?

I have in the past found that just sliding the male jack in partaily can change the output audio signal you are listening to.

Check the tv and make sure it is Mono and not stereo using a combined input jack. Usually a mono tv had just one speaker.

Apex electronics I believe can have undocumented features as they may use other manufactures chip sets which may or may not have documented features.

Don't hold me to this as I don't own a Apex unit. Just a wag here.

Cybervision and Entvideo is like that also. Consequently hitting a button could take you somewheres that the owners manual has no explanation for.

Well, I have not noticed such a thing with other adult videos in the past. I turned the disc over and inside of the center hole, besides the title of the disc (which you have to turn a certain way to the light in order to see the writing), the only thing that I could see that might indicate the manufacturer of the disc, was 'LMW/CA'. Other than that, on the face side of the disc, after a whole bunch of 'Production Dates', it then lists a single 'Duplication Date'.

"Cybervision and Entvideo is like that also. Consequently hitting a button could take you somewheres that the owners manual has no explanation for."
reminded me that I have several times experienced unwanted 'functionalities' using this APEX DVD player & remote combo. Like switching between the use of the 'step', 'slow', 'fast/rev forward' and 'A-B' buttons or other buttons on the remote, has sometimes completely 'dropped' me out of the selected 'scene' entirely, and I found myself back at the beginning of the disc or somewhere like that!
However, perhaps such 'extensive' use of the remote buttons might cause any remote to 'hang up' and not be able to follow the desired sequence of button use fast enough!
This, of course, usually happens only on 'Farscape' and 'Babylon 5' DVD's, when you are attempting to follow the 'Bad Guys' when they go into 'warp-space-drive'! (Yeah! S-u-r-e!)

That doesn't mean this particular disc isn't crap. This is your answer: cheap DVDs are cheap. Sometimes they are not perfect.
