Is this known problem with all series of the bc1 ? ,.....cause i have the latest and never encountered it. Secondly i am asking because i am thinking to acquire a second hand bc1 for an elder person. Its a bc1 with small remote. Considering the remote i guess its an older bc 1 model.

If known please jot down any differnces between the old and new versions of BC1 .

I have a Beocenter 1 which I plan to place on my office wall on a bracket. The TV seems to work fine except that every now and again the DVD cradle decides to extend to accept a DVD, as if by magic!!

Any one seen this before and know the fix???

This is a know problem and is reparable under warranty, the DVD mech does not have enough sheilding from the tube which causes it to activate at random. Their is a copper kit to fix the issue, speak to your local dealer to find out more.

That sounds plausible, I'll check with my dealer. Thanks for that.

Hmm I was going to suggest cleaning the touch bar with a wet cloth (and try that), but it sounds like electricity might tripping it off.
