Top 20 Denon DVD-2910 DVD Player Questions & Answers

You will have 2 choices here, replace it or have it repaied

There is a shorted solder point to every new optical pickup units. it must be desoldered before installation. You need tech support.

double check to see if your cables are fully seated in their sockets, also if this still isn't helping try doing a manual check of the cables themselves your video cable might have gotten pinched and separated.

the possible problem of it is a defective mpeg board or the belt in tray to make it open if the motor have a supply to turn the motor the problem is the belt but if it has no supply from the mpeg to the motor the defect is on the mpeg board

Hello,

this is not a serious problem. It just has to do with visual compatibility.

Change the DVD display to Pal or NTSC and set that of the TV to Auto or pal.

You might find the PAL/NTSC on the DVD remote, or on the button of the DVD. If it is not there, then Check display settings of the DVD.

As for the TV, Change to Auto or Pal from display settings.

Take care.

the whole assembly is sold for a reason.
it is almost impossible to align the laser without expensive equipment.
the disc motor has a small bearing on the top,put a drop of oil on it and spin the clamper until it is really free spinning.
disc motors are small and fragile,and can cause a no read situation from a slow spool up.

Hi,

Initially, pls try:

• Verify that the tray is empty/no disc in the player;
• Shut down/off with the front panel On/Off button and not the standby;
• Press and hold the Open/Close, Play and Skip Reverse (I<<) buttons;
  
• Maintain pressing on the above buttons and Power-ON the player with the On/Off button, (again while still holding the above buttons till the "Denon 2910" disappears from the display);
• pls wait till LOADING completes and the front panel would display 0:00:00;
• Using the remote control, enter 7, 3, 1, 9, 4, 6, 2, & 8;
• The Denon 2910 will go into standby mode. Soon as it is on standby, pls press the Standby button on the front panel;
• Pls verify region free update by pressing the Stop and Skip Forward (>>I) buttons on the front panel. The display would show “Region_Ax” The x would be the former region number that the Denon 2910 is locked into;
• Should it not work ouot as expected, pls redo all the above steps.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

Some Home dvd players may not have any adjustment abilities, but you would find such things not too far away from the lense, if they don't exist, get a new unit.


There are two tiny surface-mount potentiometers (could be capacitors also) sitting in the small circuit on laser assembly.

this is exactly response I would like to hear - an expert opinion!

What I did with help of 1mm-wide screwdriver:

1) There were two surface-mount potentiometers marked with C1 and D. I tried first D. Turned it clock- and counterclockwise by about 45 degrees.
2) After each turn I opened and closed tray to force the player read DVD disc.
3) It did not help, "NO DISC", then I tried the same with C1, and again, no luck.
4) Finally, I came back to D and turned it by about 180 degrees in one direction. IT WORKED!!!

Moreover, player will now reads content of the DVD discs faster then before. sometimes manufacturer did not really adjust it properly and upon the time something has degraded, so players sometimes failed eventually.

By this time I figure most peoples warranties are expired. So give this a try:

1 Open the case.
2 Turn the unit on and load a disk.
3 On top of the disk transport, you will see a black disk trying to spin as it reads the disk. You might notice that it is a bit quite as the display goes to 00H00M00S. It should be fast and a bit noisy.
4 Try loading a disk again, except this time, try to help that little black disk spin. It might take a couple of attempts, but I was able to get my 2910 working again.

The last year I've had to do this 2-3 times. But it works. From what little I have read, it may just be an issue with lubricating the right part with the right oil. I've narrowed my choices to PTFE 3n1 oil, Lithium oil, or silicone oil.

now I just need to find the right places to oil.

There should be quite a bit of noise and speed

You need to clean your laser lens my friend. If that does not help, I'm afraid then that your laser assembly is going bad and on its last leg. The first clue to this is that you stated that the Cd's work and the DVDs do not work properly. The laser, when it gets weak, starts to mess up on the Dvds first but the Cd's will soon follow. Good Luck

How is the player attached to the TV set. If its with a scart cable or the R,G,B plugs, there is a loose connection in the cable or plug itself, or the connection inside the TV set or on the printed circuit board inside the DVD player. You should be able to make the problem happen by moving around the cables. if it does not, them maybe the TV set has a loose connection on the CRT socket or the player has a fault in the color demodulator circuit.

If there is a fuse, it will be on the power board, easy to spot, a glass cased fuse, or a small white ceramic fuse. Normally though, a 125,000 volts wrecks everything connected to power. https://www.google.com/search?q=Denon+X6700h+has+no+power ..

Considering you have a standby light we know the hot side of the power board is working, next step is test the power on signal coming from the main board, it should be marked on the legend on the power board what pin is power on, will be marked PO_ ON PWR or something like that, you need at least 3 vdc there when you turn the set on, if it's missing replace the main board, if you see voltage replace the power board, easy simple fix with only one measurement, verses guessing what board is bad. Sorry you didn't get any other useful help, there are some posters on here giving non helpful generic help anyone would know to try

Yes, you can still use the speakers even if they are not currently connected to a TV. To connect the speakers to your computer, you will need an audio cable with 3.5mm plugs on both ends. One end will plug into the headphone jack on your computer, and the other end will plug into the input on the speakers. Some speakers may also have RCA input, in which case you will need an RCA-to-3.5mm audio cable. If you have a newer computer with only a digital output (such as a USB-C port), you may need to use an audio interface or a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) to convert the digital signal to analog so you can plug it into your speakers. Once the speakers are connected to your computer, you can adjust the volume using the volume controls on your computer or the speakers themselves. It's important to note that your TV will not be able to use the speakers unless they are connected to it.

You can buy the original remote control on eBay for $10.92. No need for a different brand.

Sorry not familiar with this brand TV
