I have a Toshiba SD3990 player. When I try to play a DVD, the player just reads "load". I have tried several DVDs that have been previously played on this machine and the same statement appears. What can I do to fix this?
The unit can recognize that a disc has been loaded but can not read the contents. This can be as simple as a dirty lens or more drastic like failing optics. Try cleaning the lens using a cotton swab and alcohol. If that fails to correct the problem and a music CD will play OK, then the optics are failing. DVDs require more laser power to read than a music CD.
