Sounds to me like you got a short circuit of some sort, probobly some bad wiring. try disconnect all cables connecting DVD, TV, speakers and such, and reconnect the again. just take into consideration that this is a longshot, and chances are its an internal problem.

Dvd recorder turns off after 25 sec of recording. plays dvds just fine. what could be wrong?
hello,
read one of the other 'fixits' and applied it to my situation. i opened tray, turned off the machine, then pushed the tray half way in. used air and completely blew out the unit. (as well as can be expected w/o opening.) it now works.
it was very weird. it would shut off exactly 25 seconds after starting recording every time, at least 10 times. another weird thing was that it played dvds just fine.
thanks for help,
orin300

My samsung dvd player will not play dvds, but it
Are you trying to playing recordable DVDs (DVD+R or DVD-R) ? if so, try playing original DVDs (the type you rent or buy) those are pressed DVDs - if it works, then your player does not support DVD-R or DVD+R - If you are using a computer burner that supports bitsetting you can change the booktype of a DVD+R to DVD-ROM to fool your player.

If however your player cannot play either DVD-R, DVD+R nor original DVDs and only plays CDs, then your dvd laser diode is finished - there is one for CD and one for DVD, this is rare but happens, there is nothing you can do, any repairs would be very expensive - you are better off getting a new DVD player they are very inexpensive now and any repairs will cost you multiple times a new DVD player.

I 'Finalized' the DVD but cannot play on another player
Does the machine record on to + or - DVDR?
If it does both try each type. Also try high quality discs, some of the cheaper types won't work. Try it on different speeds too.

Acer aspire 2930 DVD player only opens some dvds
Try Media player classic under k-lite codec pack. Then open video files on the dvd. If it doesn't help try another codec player. If nothing helps could it be that dvd player is not capable of multilayer dvd reading.

Symphonic Video/DVD player- dvds not able to be read so they don't play
possibly check the setup of the player. some dvd's will not work in most players. check the manual. if under warranty take back to store. or better yet buy another one like it and take the one that is bad back to the store with the new receipt.

Mizuda dvd player wont read dvds
Hi,

A couple of things To try.

1:) The DVD Player May be Region encoded, can only play certain region Dvds. ** Try different Disks**

2:) The Disk May Be Dirty-Scratched ( Towards The Centre )
** Clean The Disk With A Soft Lint-Free Cloth**

3:) The Laser Head may have a speck of dust or debris on it.
** Try a Laser Cleaning CD**

Hope this works For You.

Samsung DVD-4600 DVD/VCR Player
My Smasung DVD/VCR Combo stopped reading DVDs because of a dirty read head. It started by only playing disks sometimes, and progressed to never playing disks. I assumed it was a dirty laser lens so I bought a lens cleaner set. Unfortunately my player wouldn't play the cleaner disk.

So I took it apart and cleaned the laser lens manually with some isopropyl alcohol (the clenser that came with my cleaning disk), and a lens cloth (that came with my glasses). Just open the case (starting with the screws in the back) and remove the snap in cross panel that obscures the lens of the DVD portion. Put a drop of cleanser on the lens and gently wipe it with the cloth.

Oh and by the way, I take no responsibility if you break your own player while following my instructions. My own DVD player was far out of warranty at the time I cracked it open.

Sony DAV-C900 Home Theater System: problems with speakers and dvd picture quality Hello all, I hope someone can help me here... The speakers have been going off and on intermittently for a while now. I have cleaned the connections, but it does no good. Sony has these stupid color coded connectors and I do not know how to go about upgrading the wires. If that is even the problem. I have switched the wires around, and when I switch one that works to a non-working connector it will not work. When I put a non-working speaker wire into one of the working connectors, it will work--it almost seems to me that it is either a problem internally, or with that specific connector that sticks out of the rear of the unit. After fooling around with them for a while, I can usually get it to work, but then it will go out for no apparent reason. Another problem has to do with the picture. It has developed these squiggly lines while watching dvd's. Sometimes they go away after a while, but it is certainly annoying. I have attempted to clean the laser with one of those dvd cleaning disc's and even replaced the s-video cable, but neither has resolved this problem. It used to have an excellent picture, even though I wasn't using component cables. Due to my TV set-up, I need to use the S-video hook-up, but like I said it has always worked well until recently... We really do not watch that many movies, so I wouldn't think the laser is going bad--hell, the kids have many more hours on their xbox than this unit has...If I had the money, I would just go out buy a new system--not an HTIB this time, but this year has not been too lucrative, so I am stuck with this for the time. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Dana
