Darius McCrary was seen for the first time Wednesday since his arrest last week and he chose to represent himself during a court hearing, but the only problem was ... he didn't appear to know what the f*** was going on.
As TMZ previously reported, McCrary was arrested October 5 on a warrant out of Michigan stemming from a missed court appearance related to his failure to pay child support.
At his arraignment today in a San Diego courtroom, the "Family Matters" alum chose to forego a lawyer, opting to represent himself ... which was a huge mistake.

The county's top prosecutor also wouldn't get into possible suspects -- and he ignored the elephant in the room -- D4vd -- when our photog brought up the singer by name.

LAPD's sitting on a potential goldmine in the D4vd investigation ... surveillance videos from the singer's Hollywood Hills rental home that could reveal whether Celeste Rivas was there prior to her mysterious death.
TMZ has learned cops seized all the footage from multiple security cameras at the house last month while executing a search warrant. The owner of the house, Malden Trifunovic, tells us the external cameras would show anyone who went in or out of the house ... so, the footage could help cops track Celeste's movements leading up to her demise.
Malden says he hasn't seen any of the footage himself, because he intentionally did not have access to the cameras, to allow his renters privacy -- so, he has no idea if Celeste was ever in the house. He says he's asked LAPD for a copy of the warrant and an itemized list of what was seized from the house, but has not gotten a response.
