Hi,



Getting a dvd to eject is becoming a bit of lottery. Sometimes it will eject cleanly, sometimes it wont. I'm operating the player from the front panel as its playing back into a sony tv. Its been fine for about 12 months.

I see on the screen in the little message box its says "opening" as the tray opens, then it then says "Blocked!" once the dvd tray is fully open - can anyone tell me if this "blocked" is by design and what it might mean please?



I tried a few DVDs and they DVD play back, but play back was becoming a bit erratic with freezes occasionally or jumping.



I put DVD cleaner disc in and it didnt make much differnece. I'm not sure if its a sensor thats maybe blocked up by dust etc.

Or is perhaps its time to get it looked at? Its a great machine when its running well.

ANy thoughts welcome.

S.

"Blocked" is an error message, meaning the tray is blocked.

Either the DVD1 is not on a flat surface or the drive needs to much power opening the tray. It could be a warped case or the front finisher is bent... or the drive is dirty/worn out on the guides.
