Hi all and thanks in advance for your time and help !
I have bought, more than a year ago (so no more warranty) a Panasonic DVD player, model is called DVD-S42.
I was very happy with this device, until this morning.
Yesterday, I have watched some old DVD-R's on which I had burned some DIVX files, with the extension .avi. The DVDs had a lot of scratches, they are old, but there was no playback problem. Everything was smooth. I watched 4 episodes of a TV show.
This morning, I took my remote control (batteries are fine) and I pressed play, and nothing happened, no power, nothing ! At first I thought maybe it's an electrical problem...but all my other devices plugged in the same powerbar work fine. So I unplugged the dvd player, replugged it, and then I got power. Cool ! I can turn the player on.
However, the player displayed a NO DISC message...even if the same disc as yeasterday was in !!!
At first, I thought maybe it's because the discs are too old and have too much scratches on them, but I inserted some very recently burned DVD's in the player, and still got the NO DISC problem.
Does anyone here have any idea what could be the cause. I have used this device A LOT ! Could this be simple wear ?
