Anyone know why the dvd player is constantly saying no disc every time i put one in. It has hardly ever been used. Was up in the living room all year and i have just taken it down to my room last wk, played couple dvds in it during the week but now it will play feck all

Any solutions

Same as the needle in a record player, or a head on a hard drive. It reads the information.

Are you definitely sure you are not putting a blank DVD into it?

Make sure the discs dont have any marks,like fingerprints etc on them,or buy a disc cleaner kit for a few pounds and try that. I would not think the laser would be gone,as someone suggestd.

The in laws DVD player is acting up as well. The screen has a blue tinge throughout when you try to play a DVD. Would it be the Scart Lead??...if it isnt I suppose she can get a new player in Argos for 25 quid.
