There are no specific settings for playback on this machine?
If the lazer does not read discs and the display shows NO DISC or UNKNOWN DISC then the lazer pick-up needs replacing.
I believe that the lazer pick-up for this LG recorder has been discontinued?
make sure the disk is finalised after recording, if this does not help then the bit-rate it uses for xp may not be compatable with other dvd players, in which case stick to sp,lp or dual-layer sp is best if ou can.
Open up your LG Recorder. You should see the HDD on the left, the DVD drive in the middle and a circuit board on the right..
Now, look at the back of the dvd drive.. you should see a power connector and a standard IDE interface..
Remove both of those connections carefully. Remove the screws in the black bevels on the sides of the drive and slowly pry out the drive by lifting the IDE interface side above the main board and pulling it out while slipping out the black clips on top of the tray side..
Now that it is done, take your new dvd drive.. you may want to remove the faceplate or at least the plate from the tray ..(slide it upwards.. it should slip out ) .. Place it where the old dvd drive used to be.. do the connections and your good to go..
Before closing, Check to see if the drive is functioning. Close up.
I have swapped drives on my LG many times and even upgraded the HDD.. I have used mainly LG and sony drives..
Mine was originally shipped with 80GB some 3 years ago.. I had put in a 160 GB and now will be putting in a 250 GB as the other is already full and i like to keep those old recordings..
Ive just had the same thing happen to my highlander dvd/hdd 160g. Mine lasted just over a year and I have lost the sound as well. It worked perfectly and No problems until sound suddenly disappeared
my l g hard drive recorder/dvd,suddenly would not delete programmes that i wanted to edit ,also the timeshift would not work,but i could still record ok,and i had a few hours space left on the hard drive .so i copied to disc my favourite stored programmes ,about 3 discs,and put them to one side .
i tried then to format the complete hard drive ,but it didnt do anything !so i put it on record for 7hours on sp,then i stopped recording, and tried deleting the programme straight away ,and it did !it also cleaned the hard drive empty ! the timeshift is ok and all else is ok ,so i fixed it witha bit of my logic !hope this helps someone one day !
Insert an empty DVD + R. The system asks whether to format - Format. Select a recording on the HDD to copy to DVD. Enter Select dubbing with arrows select type of recording to make (XP, SP, EP etc) The system show the duration you can copy to you DVD. If small enough the FAST option also appears. If big copies while playing the orriginal (I.e. playback speed)
When in timeshift, press record on the remote (every time you push "record" 30 minutes are added) and make sure the program you are recording is not macro protected. If your program has already finished rewind to the beginning of the program and push record the correct number of times to cover your program and then press stop on the remote. It should then be at the bottom of your hard drive list.
Playback freezes at times and at others appears to skip parts of scenes
