    Problem with BC2 - help please

    Dear friends,

    My Beocenter2 has developed a problem. I was watching a DVD the other day no problem, switched everything off as usual.

    Last night I put another DVD in and turned on as usual - the picture is fine and it skips between scenes fine but there is no sound at all coming to the speakers. So i tried a music CD - same problem, it reads the track as normal (the display is counting as normal) but no sound at all. I then tried Radio and that worked perfectly well as normal with sound. I also tried switching everything off for a few minutes at the mains to try and 'reset' - didn't help.

    To me it looks like somehow the laser or something is not reading the sound on the discs.. as I say, Radio mode is fine and of course the TV works fine as usual too. I have not changed anything and all the wires and plugs are in as normal. I merely switched it off the other day and now this has happened out of the blue..

    Any ideas?

    Cheers all!

    Sounds basic, but have you looked at the laser?  It could have some gunk or a fingerprint on it !!

    Yes I did try cleaning it with a cotton bud Lee - no difference.  Just puzzled how it worked one day - and not the next. It must be some sort of laser issue since the radio mode works ok?

    I will try the Beo4 alternative tonight and report back - thanks

    I tried this but it is a no go. Still no sound from either CDs or DVDs   :o(

    I have also tried cleaning the laser itself - no luck.

    The Radio option still works.. very odd indeed. Any more useful suggestions chaps?

    What gets me is that I have not changed anything, nor switched anything off at the mains or changed any cables or settings. I just turned it off on the beo4 standby button.  Next day - no sound!!  Grrrr...

    Lee - Heeeeeelp  ;o)
