Hi,

It sounds as if the actual T/V channel is out of tune.
I,d suggest powering the player On.
Then using channel 8-12 on the T/V to Scan for its frequency.
When you,ve located it to the Player.
Lock the channel, then use the DVD on Channel 8-12.

Mike @ compurepair.

p.s also check the output from DVD To T/V lead has,nt come loose.

First I must say I have different camera, but in my case I must close the disc session from camera menu, so theat after it dvd could be played in dvd players and after it you can't record on that disk anymore. If you alredy know that, then sorry. I have a problem that some non-scratched in any way disks with data just don't respond at all, but that's another story. All the best.

My guess is that your DVD player is malfunctioning. I'd check the warranty and just try and get another. The problem you're describing sounds like the DVD hardware is probably messed up.

If you are using DVD-R media, you can record in either V or VR mode.  What is confusing is that if you try to format the media, you only have the choice of VR mode -- and this mode is very well understood by other dvd players, some other records do understand it.  This mode has much better editing capability, but poor compatibility.  If you want compatibility, use the V mode.  The trick is that to do that, you don't format it!   V mode is the default and does not require formatting.  The owners manual says that, but too well hidden if you ask me
