My samsung htbd1250 starts beeping when i'm watching a dvd or just using for surround sound when i'm watching t.v. the dvd will skip forward when this does this. i turned on the radio on the unit and it still beeped. when it was beeping the the stations were scanning and everytime it picked up a station with good signal it would beep and stop, play music and then it would start doing it again. so when ever u are watching a dvd, the stereo is scanning in the background. got a fix

Best idea would be to replace this unit with something new. The 1250 model was a huge problem from the time it was made. To get you unit to work again, you would have to get the main pcb and dvd deck replaced. This will cost more than a new system will.

Hey,

You can use your Xbox controller as a remote control to watch media.
Here are the actions for each button:

To... Press... Play or pause Note If the DVD is bookmarked, it will start playing automatically where it was stopped the last time you viewed it. START Skip back one chapter LB
or
A, then select skip back Skip forward one chapter RB
or
A, then select skip forward Fast forward RT Rewind LT Page up through a list of items. RT Page down through a list of items. LT Open the on-screen display for more advanced playback controls. X, Y

Hello,it sound to me like you have a (skip) forward button either on the remote control or the units front panel stuck . Remove the remote from the room and see if it continues,if so than look closely at the skip forward button on the unit itself.

genarally tv output contain two signals.(steereo).it dosent have surrund output.thats y its not hearing surround sound from your system.

On your Sagem TV you should have two RCA ouputs (red and white connection usually marked ouput) ) Connect these to the input on the surround system using the interlink cable.

You should then be able to hear the sound from the TV by changing the SOURCE on the home cinema remote.

Better still if you have a digital out on your TV use that instead.

Make Sure the correct sound filed is being used refer to owners manual and the program is true surround also the surround speakers will only give background noise not a full channel

You should have a AUDIO menu in which you can simulate true surround sound. This should be in your owners manual. Your DVD is recorded in dolby surround sound that's why on your set it will be reproduced as recorded. I hope Samsung is using a ATSC tuner in that model?

Does sound like the laser. Realitically, not worth repairing. I'd say you'd be worth connecting a cheap DVD player to the system - then the Sony can carry on providing the surround sound audio and the new DVD player can provide the video. Then, if the cheap DVD player is still going, it can move to a bedroom TV if and when you replace the surround system....

Otherwise, I would imaging the speaker set (and even the non-working DVD player) on its own might fetch a reasonable price on an auction site - anyone who has a stolen DVD unit will probably be desparate for the speakers as Sony don't sell them separately!

if ur surround hasnt got digital in then it wont work also its better to use the red white and yellow wire, i have hdmi and them wires hooked up and i have sound through everythin all i have to do is put it on aux 2, try it out

first thing i would do i clean the lens with 90% isoprople alcohol and a q-tip, if that doesn't work watch the laser eye again and the movement is the laser look like it tries to catch up???
i would put a dc volt meter on the motor and the motor should stay at lower voltage if it climbs then there is something with the rails or worm gear. let me know what you find out.
