Same Problem

Mar 09, 2009

-   My Sony DVD player RDR-GX210 has just packed in with the same problem. It certainly appears to me that Sony seem incapable of making DVD players. I have always bought Sony products but not any more! This was an expensive machine when bought new but has been used very little as I have Sky Plus. -   john62754

-   My Sony DVP-NC675P was working just fine until Christmas day. When I went to put in a DVD for my kid, the unit just whirred and squealed before displaying the message "CANNOT." The play icon is illuminated, which I took to mean "CANNOT PLAY." -   Guest

-   My Sony DVD player DVP-NS57P has been playing the same DVD for some time with no problem. Now however, when inserted it says "loading" which stays there for many minutes and then finally says "this cannot be played. I have tried everything in the trouble shooting instructions, but this problem does not seem to be covered.

I have just last night rented "Live Free or Die Hard" and for the very first time on my 2-year-old Sony DVP-NS575P DVD player encountered this problem ("Cannot play this disc"). It did not provide any other explanation. I tried cleaning the rental DVD but the problem persisted. I looked at the rental DVD with a magnifying glass (to check for small cracks) but could not see any physical defects. I tried some of the DVD titles in my own personal collection but they played fine. So it just seems to be a problem with this particular disc. I'll see if I can get another disc of the same title and make the second one work.
