I've got a LG RH266 dvd recorder and I've this problem: when I try to record from tv with timer function, sometimes the dvd recorder ejects (without cd or dvd inserted) and the recording doesn't start; if I try to close it, it continues to eject and I have to cancel timer and 'manually' recording.
-   The DVD drawer seems to have a mind of its own - opening and closing whenever a command function is given. Happens with or without a DVD-   brian5513

-   When I power on, The dvd r/w keeps opening and closing, so I can't do anything.
Tried to disconnect the dvd, then nothing works at all, the front panel says "hello" and keeps saying it. I don't know if this problem is dvd or printed circuit related.
Any solutions? -   cibigi
This sometimes happens when a disk is not formatted prior to recording .. the DVD is telling you it cant record on it at the time you want because it would have to format first and then start recording so missing the times you have set .
Best thing to do is use re- recordable discs only and format prior to use then the dvd should start straight away .
If not then the set has a serious read problem and requires looking at by a qualified engineer ... Regards Vortash
