Portable dvd player slows or stops

When playing the dvd player will sometimes slow down or completely stop for a few seconds. Sometimes it won't start the movie unless I restart it several times. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The pladder motor that spins the dvd disc is failing, or the 5volts to the motor is flutuating, usually the whole assembly is replaced and is expensive.

Videos freeze

Your problem about slowing, freezing or stopping Youtube video streaming is either the cause of the following:

1.) Maybe you have a very slow internet connections. There is a big tendency that the video you're watching online would stop and go every few seconds most especially if you're playing high definition video (HD Quality). I suggest you upgrade your connection to more suitable range. To do that contact your provider and ask them what subscription is better for your need.

2.) If you have a very fast connection and still freezing every few seconds, I doubt your flash player should be upgraded to its latest version in order to sustain its new definitions and requirements to play the video smoothly as watching DVD. To do that you need to check for latest updates of your browser in Help Menu usually Firefox have this. As you upgrade a warning will show you that you need to download the latest Adobe Flash Player. Sometimes, if there is update in flash it will just pop-up in system tray informing you that you need to install immediately the upgrade.

3.) The video itself has a problem, this was the cause if the owner of the video uploaded it to Youtube erroneously.

After 10 min. of play time the dvd stops working

This is most likely a problem with the power supply to the drive motor. A component is breaking down and the supply voltage is dropping below operational levels after warming up.This is a problem that needs service in a service center or someone who is a experienced electronic technician to take apart the unit and test it for bad components.Hope this help you with your problems.

I have a magnzvox MPDD845 8.5" TFT Monitor Portable DVD Player

The sound you are hearing is the lens attempting to focus. Since it seems to recover, this could be an alignment problem or just a connection problem. Without seeing the waveforms of the tracking circuit, I can not say for sure. If this is a new unit, return it for warranty exchange or repair.
