Problem: After opening the dvd drawer ,loading a dvd in it and closing it
the drawer does not stay closed; it comes back out.
Even after several tries it still doesn't close. What's the problem?
-   My DVD recorder HDD/DVD 250gb RH251 door (or tray or whatever it is
called) won't stay closed. After switching the LG on the door keeps
opening, I close it and it re-opens again and again and so on.

-   Drawer won't close with or without a DVD, making the whole nit useless.-   jeryrig

-   Same problem here... the LG DVD/VCR combo drive was new one year ago and it's already on the blink. The drawer keeps popping out and won't read a disc. Not a great unit, and I would never recommend it to anyone! Argh!

you need to replace the dvd loader(the whole setup, the draw/tray,laser sled assy ,etc) statewide sell
parts for lg.unless you know an authorised lg repair agent.too bad you dont know me, lol.
(ps,its not in the manual,cuz there is nothing you can really do about it without serviceing the unit)

I have comcast digital cable. When I use the auto mode for channels on my recorder it does install some channels. A message comes up that this channel has switched to digital. Is there some kind of adapter that I Thankscan use on my recorder so I can record these channels.

As with everyone else. It stopped reading DVD's after 3 months. I sent it back and they replaced it. 6 months later the replacement does the same thing. I am with everyone else I am going to steer clear of LG from now on.
