The dvd player won't work. Tried the memorex opti cleanser & that played through the steps. Also it will play cds, but just says loading & no disk when try to play a dvd.

Unit laser assembly has died . Not repairable, replacement in order.

Hey,

have you tried a lens cleaner? the lens may have gone bad and would need to be replaced. Do you have warranty on the player?

You might need to clean the lens. They have CDs that will help clean this.

Not every CD or DVD player is able to correctly ready every single brand of writable media. The situation you described is quite common, and the only solution is to use another brand of media. Some people recommend burning at a slower speed, but I don't think this helps at all.
This situation might be caused by incompatibility between the laser on your player and the formulation of the writable surface. You should test other brands and find one that works with all your devices. When you find it, stick with it.

Have you tried burning a CD in the new drive? Because the drive is a DVD it will always be recognised as a DVD, but should work perfectly well with CDs both playing and recording.

you have to download a program or a software that plays or are able to read dvd file formats inorder for you to play your desired format. try to download vlc media player

2 questions. Did you finalize it when you burnt it? Did you record it as video dvd or a data dvd?

the cds you put in there are not compatible to the player.if it had been playing the same cds then it is time to take your set to a tech for repair it can be your memory chip or your lens.good luck.

replace the spindle motor and optic lens.

no data dvds work on the players.

use NERO 6 OEM to write Video DVDs or CDs they will run Players
