Sound Interference

NO it dosent sound like there related problems at all. Now you say you get interferance or is it more like a static noise only when using the dvd player??? If thats the case then you have an output device problem as its breaking down and crackling into your input to your sound amp or the tv. Its a problem that will need to be traced with a scope and a test disk. as it could be a D to a converter or an op amp IC, or even as simple as a filter cap. Good Luck

I am experienceing exactly the same problem. it started a few weeks ago, when a strong noise appeared while watching/recording TV through this JVC DR-M10SEF DVD recorder. Then last week I did experience my first flashing "loading" problems. It is going away when pressing during a while the "open" button. Now since yesterday the noise is occuring when playing DVDs and the only way to get rid of this problem is to unplug then replug the recorder (which leads to the loading problem) and then press "open" for a while!! What a wonderful human-machine-interface method!
I thought first that the problem was on the hardware, but now this looks like a software problem. Does anybody know if the firmware upgrade fixes such problems? In advance thank you for your feedback!
