RDR-VX530 will not play DVDs rented from Video store. Set of 3 DVDs, played first DVD will not play DVD 2 or 3. Displays loading message for couple of minutes then ejects DVD. Intermittent problem with any DVD rented from DVD store.
When a DVD player starts doing that, it either needs to be cleaned, or something is going wrong with the DVD mechanism inside of it. You can purchase DVD lens cleaner from any large retail store that has an electronics section. However, if you clean it and the problem persists, it will likely be cheaper to replace the unit rather than trying to have it repaired unless you're under warranty in which case any repair or exchange will be covered by said warranty. If you call the manufacturer they will give you your full range of options.

I need to know the orientation of the Gear Worm Wheel in a RDR-VX530. The illustration in "Broken Cam Gear" posted Feb 06, 2009 is not clear enough to tell. The wheel spokes are offset from the center and since it has fallen apart and I did not take note, I am no longer sure of the orientation. I am going to Bondo this ****** back together!! Are the spokes closer to the sheet metal?
