Hi there,my mintek portable dvd
Yes that is correct, over a period of time the laser becomes weaker and gets to a point it will not track, the second common problem the pladder motor that the disc sits on becomes defective and stops working. To fix this will require a brand new assembly that would not be cost effective to repair, but you can attempt to clean the laser lens with a Q-Tip and rubbing alcohol very carefully which might bring back the system.

This caused by the captions, get the remote, press menu, scroll down to captions, right arrow press 1, 2, 3, off when the cursor is over the off press enter on the remote and that should get rid of the black box.
When I turn the player
Hi,
the problem is from the laser (lens) of your player. The laser (lens) is very weak, that's why it's difficult for it to load DVD.
If you insert an Audio CD into the player, you will discover that it will load it without any problem.
Get a laser (lens) cleaner, use it to clean the laser (lens). If that doesn't solve the problem, then you will have to replace the laser (lens) of your player to a brand new one and the problem will be solved.
Good luck.
Can I buy a remote
Hello,
Yes, you can buy a remote your Mintek DVA8700. Also, the unit can receive AM/FM radio because it has AM/FM radio.
Good luck.
I have two remotes --one
On the Mintek remote control you have to make the proper selection. For example if you typically have to have the television on channel 3 to receive Comcast you would select 3.0 or 3-0 enter/select/ok
or 4.0 or 4-0 enter/select/ok
Perhaps the Comcast receiver will not come in on channel 3 or 4. In that instance you would need to select the correct input or video source. There should be an input or video button on the Mintek remote control as well. If there is an input or video button on the television itself please press it over and over again until you have landed on the right input.

Make sure the antenna lead / or from the cable modem / is plugged into the TV.
If this is not the fix, make sure that the leads from the DVD player are in the right place.
The leads from the DVD player go to the inputs on the TV.
