The problem is that it will sometimes play a dvd disc then wont, I get an error bad disc even though it is the same disc that I have just played with no problems. What could be going wrong? If it's playing sometimes & not at others then maybe the lens needs cleaning? Although this shouldn't really happen with brand new players. You can buy dvd lens cleaning discs. Failing that take it back to asda for a refund or swap. Hope this helps. bigbadkev 19-07-2007, 06:33 what dvd player is it? it could just be a lump of scrap metal like the wharfedale divx player i got for xmas im luky if it plays a whole film....anyone wanna buy it:P SimpyTimpy 19-07-2007, 11:22 Sounds like a problem with the DVD player, take it back to the shop and get a replacement if i were you :) John Hope 21-07-2007, 18:12 I took it back for another one now it works perfect.

Other discs play well in this player and the problematic disc plays on my computer. Does this sound like a lens cleaning issue? (Sorry to hijack your thread).

Yes i plug my flash stick in it, its easy to load avi movies or photos from my computer on to my flash stick, then watch them on my tv. |
