I HAVE AN L.G. DVD HOME THEATRE THAT DOES NOT READ MY DVD.WHEN INSERTED.WHAT COULD BE WRONG?
I have exactly the same problem with my Toshiba Satellite SA40-231 with its SD-R6112 DVD drive. It accepts many kinds of DVD:s for recording but when I try to read the data later on, no disc is found or the disc seems to be empty. Trying the same, already recorded discs in some other computers they work perfectly. Also reading movie DVD:s is problematic; the DVD drive seems to accept them only when it is on good mood which is about every 4th time I insert a movie DVD into the computer.
The discs I use are in perfect shape, usually brands like Sony and Maxell, and I have tryid to keep both the drive and the whole laptop clean out of dust so that is not the problem. Interesting is that CD discs work perfectly. These problems have existed eversince I got the laptop some four years ago but I didn't know then it could have been the DVD drive's fault. Just blamed my own stupidity then and of course the two years guarantee "worned out"...
The problem is the same, only different model notebook.
