    The laser head with cleaned with a cleaning disk as well as appropriate cleaning solution. But it did not work!

  • myunusji Jan 15, 2009

    Thank you ever so much for being helpful.
    The problem goes beyond 'sacrificing' ... It is not even playing the DVDs it used to read/play. Please see if you can help me more on this. Can you please forward me the Part No. of the DVD laser head.
    Thanks once again.

    Yunus.

All reviews that I am reading confirm my belief. It is a 1st generation DVD player and therefore will be hard pressed to play any newer DVDs. Think of it as technology advancing. It's sad but it happens. Even newer DVD players can not play the types of movies being developed today. i.e. BluRay discs. So if you cleaned it and you can play picture discs chances are you're going to have to sacrifice which movies you can watch and search for those it will play.

Sony CX995v "Cannot Play" message on DVDs but plays CDs O.K.

Hi...
The laser goes thru a different lens arraignment for DVDs.
Take it to a TV shop and have them "blow out" the laser assembly with some CO2 and clean the lens.

Dvd player frequently pauses or freezes while trying to play audio cd's

You tried cleaning the lens right?  That's the first thing I would do. You may have to actually open up the unit and use some windex on a cotton swap to clean the lens. Be very careful not to overwet the cotton swab. Use the other end of the swab to dry the lens.

The red wavelength of light from the laser might not be getting through the lens properly, which is used for the Audio CDs, where the higher frequency laser is used for the DVD material.

Sony DVP-NS315 cant play only Video Disc

If you are using just a "yellow" ended cable for the video, maybe your custom settings are set to use "component"? I have been using this same dvd player for a while with the component video out and it works fine. I hope this helps.
