Use alkiline, or the type battery your camera asked for
Put them in correctly.

Foreal

take a cotton swab dipped in alcohol, and rub it around the center of disc only and insert it immediately. your optic lens is probably dirty. hope this works

How long have you had it on. If you are not venting the heat out away from the processor, it will shut down to protect it. I suggest either take a small fan and blowing towards the computer. Or they make a chill pads for laptops about thrity dollars.

1. clean and adjust the springs in the battery compartment
2. use the right batteries, alkaline or NiMH, etc.

this tips may help
Why my camera keeps saying ‘change battery’ even with new batteries?

Is the player new? If it's a new DVD player and still under warranty, I would return it, exchange it or possibly, consider changing brands: perhaps to a Phillips brand DVD player. After all, the Phillips corporation guarantees its DVD players will play everything, just read the box in which the player's packaged - it's the best bang for your buck. With DVD players being so inexpensive these days, the best option is to buy new. Keep computing Chomskyites.

This shutting on and off~On Durabrand TV`S. If your Tv Turns Off after about 1-11/2 minutes after turning it on then you need to replace your batteries in your remote control with BRAND NEW BATTERIES or it will keep doing it. It is a real pain in the behind especially if you dont have brand new batteries handy!
