I have a DVP-NS575P player that has worked fine until recently. I now get a message across the display panel "CANNOT PLAY' and no other data appears on the panel.
Disc may not be spinning due to motor failure. remove top and observe is disc is spinning or not. my sony dvp-ns41p failed this way

I was able to determine that my unit was motor failure and I was ble to remove the motor and was even able to order a replacement motor online. The only problem was I needed to order 5 to meet the minimum order so now I have 4 extra. After replacing the motor it still did not run and after some probing I found that a very small surface mount fuse had blown out. (not sure how that happened) I was able to jumper accross the blown fuse with a fuse from radio shack and now I am enjoying my dvd player once more. If anyone is interested, I will post the model number for my spindle motor and I will sell of my spare motors at a reasonable price if anyone wants to try this fix

I was able to fix mine by opening the player with the DVD still inside and then I manually spun the DVD and the motor kicked in! After 2 days my DVD player is now working again! Thanks to everyone else that posted. It gave me the idea to try this.

This totally works!! My DVD player is really old (2000) with tons of hours of use! I first moved the laser thing back so I could access it easier. then I simply went into the cabinet and took two Q-Tips, dipped one end of both of the Q-Tips in some 90% rubbing alcohol, then rolled them on my pant leg to get the excess alcohol off. Then I cleaned the lense and dried the lense off with the dry end, and repeated with the fresh one. Then I put a DVD in and pushed the close button and turned the dvd really fast a few times and it works like a champ.
worked for me as well! Nice info...thanks!

For this player, the disk is prone to slide out of its place. It may have slid around as the player was reading it and gave the error.

Unplug the unit overnight or 24 hours and see if that resets the microprocessor. if it dosent work then theres a mechanical problem and your gonna need to take the unit into a repairt shop unless you can take it apart first and see if theres something blocking the disc. Good luck

SOURCE: need unlock code.
I found this region hack here Sony DVP-NS575P region code , check it out:
"Warning
The following guide describes how I managed to make my Sony DVP-NS705V DVD player multi-region.
There are no guarantees that you will be able to do the same. Be
aware that you will probably void any warranty you have and possibly
even break the player.
Put shortly, you proceed at your own risk.
Introduction
First of all, the Sony DVP-NS705V can be made multi-region simply
by applying appropriate service codes, you do not need to install a so
called "mod chip".
This supposedly applies to the entire NS-series of Sony DVD
players. There are some encouraging reports out there supporting this,
but nothing has been verified by me. Again, if you choose to apply this
guide to any DVD player, you do so at your own risk.
If you do find that this procedure works on another model, please drop me a line at [email protected] and let me know. Include the exact model number and original region of your player.
Update: Some users have reported success on the following players:

Thanks to all who have contributed.
The infrared service codes required to make the update are
available on the Internet. Unfortunately, not many people have an
appropriate device to enter the codes into. You basically need a
programmable remote (Philips Pronto, One-For-All) or a PDA (Palm, iPAQ)
with suitable software.
This guide shows you how to make the update with a regular PC equipped with an IRDA port.
The procedure
1. Download the winsamp -package from Blank Frank's site.
http://www.veg.nildram.co.uk/remote.htm
This innovative piece of software allows you to send standard home electronics IR signals using a PC IRDA port.
2. Extract the package onto a bootable DOS floppy disk.
3. Download this IR code
http://www.selen.org/files/REMOTE.TXT
file and place it in the same directory as the package above.
This file holds the five necessary IR codes converted to the format
used by Blank Frank's winsamp.exe. Please do not bother Frank with
questions concerning this particular procedure.
4. Boot up your PC from the floppy disk and run winsamp.exe.
If your IRDA port doesn't appear as COM2 you may override this by
using an appropriate command line switch. For example, use COM1 by
running 'winsamp C1'.
5. Press the 'r' key to load up the codes into winsamp.
6. Make sure your DVD player is in standby mode and your IRDA port is within range.
7. Run the IR codes from 1 to 5 by pressing Enter on each corresponding button.
8. Your DVD player should start up and display the text "SUCCESS".
9. Repeat step 7. Your player should return to standby mode.
10.Your player is now multi-region."

My dvd player clicks really slow when you press play. And 0 comes up
with each click. At the end of the clicking something like HO2 then
says stop. What can I do to fix it?
cannot read disc
is there a fix for the disc not spinning or should I just buy a new dvd player?
The disc is not spinning and I am getting a cannot read disc message. I have hardly used this machine not even a year old, only for my daugther when we go on big trips. Toshiba SD-P1600.
Thank you
