Problem for LG RH1999H DVD Recorder / HDD Recorder

My DVD recorder won't play my CDs

Simple problem - whenever I put an audio CD into the LG DVD recorder I recently bought, and select the audio cd option on the menu, it does not recognise the disk (returns 'no disk').

The player will play DVDs fine and the region appears to be set for Australia.

If anyone can tell me what I could do about this that would be great.

-   Well, here we go! RH199H Unit, 1 mth old, is now unable to recognise and play dvd's.... ' NO DISC' - even with ones watched prior. Over the last week or so, the dvd's started freezing. Checked out the discs as thought due to scratches, but alas it seems to be the death of the unit. Excellent! Long weekend and no unit to record and watch. Trip to return unit and the warranty nightmare.-   Guest

-   I have the same or worse with an LG RH277 dvd/hd recorder. It will no longer recognise commercial music CDs or any other type of CD either, even though it played several music CDs and data CDs without problem a week ago. The unit is only a month old. I have tried factory reset, and removing the power overnight without any result - I suspect the DVD Drive is faulty and will be returning it to the retailer for warranty tomorrow.

Coincidentally I just puchased a PC internal LG DVD super-multi DVD burner for my PC which uses the same drive chipset, and it had the same problem not recognising CDs (but fine with DVD media) from day 1. Also going back to the retailer for warranty.

Recently purchased a unit... You can imagine the joy when I found in Manual: Audio discs can only play if in .mpg or .wma formats! Yes, all the bells and whistles except the most basic of functions such as all common audio formats. Other portable $99 dvd player works with them.

My LG dvd player won't play some rented dvd's either. It either doesn't recognise or it starts playing them and then half way in it will freeze.

Also would like to know if there are any solutions out there.

My DVB-T HDD/DVD Recorder DBRH197 suddenly won't recognise Region 4 DVD's. It rejects the disc with an error message "unknown disc". It may just be coincidental, but this fault started occurring directly after I tried to format a new DVD-RW disc.

I've seen quite a few similar fault reports. Is there a fix?

HELP !!!! Purchased a RH1999H in May 2007. Worked fine on all formats until now. The problem is on bought and rented DVDs, I keep getting the message "Unknown Disc".
The systen works perfectly with audio and Divx disc, but will not playback original DVDs. Please someone assist. LG USA says contact local supplier, but in SA this could take 6 months.
