My DVD/Video combi is just out of warranty, (purchased 06/06/2005). I noticed it flashing Loading without a DVD insitu. When I try to open the DVD drawer nothing happens so I cant load a DVD to check whether it is a laser or dust problem. The video works fine! I emailed JVC and got the following reply: This symptom is due to a malfunction of the unit and our technical support dept are aware of this and has the hardware upgrade for it. As after sales service(12 months warranty) operates through the dealer, we would recommend you contact your dealer from whom the purchased was made. They will arrange service under the terms of the guarantee.
Your dealer will be aware of our technical support service, who will offer every assistance to ensure that an effective repair is made.
I bought the unit from a website and because the warranty is up no-one seems interested, even though JVC are aware of the problem! Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.

- Thanks Deb I'm in the UK and have spoken to several people who's JVC DVDs have started playing up! Perhaps there is a common fault which JVC are not admitting to? Keep in touch Di

the... indicated that his solution for RDR-GX315 DVD... Problem is valid for all JVC DVD Players
a new DVD disc hangs in "load" or gets stuck in "format" or "finalize" modes seems a very common problem with Sony's recorders. First pull the power plug, then swing down the DVD tray door, there's a little gear on the lower left that can be carefully turned to eject the disc. This has happened to me several times since i got this recorder in January. Obviously a control logic bug.
I have done additional research and found several sites that list this problem. This sound like a lemon problem and there may be lemon laws in your state. I live in California and will be checking into it. Wish us luck!
everything in repair is money, all depends in cost, you paid for what you get and you get what you pay for..if it cost you a lot you repair it but if was cheap dont waist you time.. I can tell you send it to JVC they will help you but how much you gona paid for it (shiping insurance and time) better check for a local tech may be is cheaper...good luck
I just fixed my player by removing the top cleaning the lens and spinning the gears that should be in veiws gives it a jump start and now plays fine. Hope this helps.

It keeps switching itself off! I have to switch it off at the mains, then on again. It comes on for a while & then goes off again. It won't switch on again unless I do this.

I have a JVC DR-MV1S. The power was off. During the night it began to flash "Loading". There is a disc in the machine. I am unable to shut it down at the power switch. Unplugging and replugging is no help. It comes on by itself after plugging in without the power switch and continues to flash 'Loading'. I cannot eject the disc. Is there another way to remove the disc? I think it will work again if I can get the disc out. There was also a power interruption (thrown breaker) a few days ago. The only thing it will do with the remote or at the machine is switch back and forth between VCR / DVD. There was also a VHS tape loaded it ejected without problems. Thanks!
