Often these faults are caused by failed/failing electrolytic capacitors in the DVD players power supply. frequently they are swollen or have their tops split open. If you are skilled with a soldering iron and can work safely on electrical equipment it's often a quick job to check/ replace them. If not, it's best to take the DVD player to a service center for repair.

Hi, mine has exactly the same problem, it only started to do it after the recent upgrade, coincidence ?? I was just wondering if you had been able to come up with any solutions. Many thanks

Hello,
Unplug it - hold all x3 buttons on the front down when you plug it back in (Eject, Play & Stop). Let go after a couple of seconds & it will go into a factory menu mode.
Select option 5 then option 1 for factory reset.
Power off then back on & you will have to set the basic options and scan for channels again. *** YOU WILL NOT LOSE ANY RECORDED PROGRAMS ***
Have had x2 new motherboards while in warranty then a 3rd 3 months out of warranty to allegedly fix this issue.
Is very good when working but tarnishes the Sony name for me. I even had to pay for the 3rd motherboard ! Customer service was shocking in my experiance.
Good luck - I'm on my 2nd reset as above, seems to occur every 4 months...
Rob.

Not the solution but it has been suggested to remove and replace the CMOS battery. Can anyone help me finding the CMOS battery on an LG RHT387H
