I have a Panasonic VHS-DVD player/recorder model DMR-ES35V. I was recording and playing back at the same time using a DVD-RAM disk (using the time slip feature). After about an hour of viewing I got an error message saying there was something wrong with the disk and it quit working. I had used this feature just as instructed in the manual in the past once with no issues and once with the disk stopping the record function before the 4 hour recording was completed. Now if I put whenever I try to use the DVD side of the machine it makes a sound like its trying to read a disk but can't find what it's looking for to play it. Then an error message comes on the screen saying that the disk can't be read. Even if I put in a commercially purchased and prerecorded movie. It seems like I just need to reset the machine back to its factory settings or something but Panasonic offered me nothing in the way of instructions to do so. I have already tried to unplug the unit and then plug it back in. No luck. Any suggestions? Thom Dixon [email protected]
