As a word of warning, some of the steps may involve treatment to the surface of the disc bose disc error message to correct reading errors and it is important to note that they may NOT be applicable to Blu-ray discs. Blu-ray discs are manufactured differently and only light polishing is suitable for them. Doing otherwise may result in permanent damage to the disc surface that may render the disc completely useless. The main difficulty in starting out is that you are most likely getting some kind of

error message from the disc reader and you think that the problem is from some particular source because of that message. Common error messages such as Disc Error, No Disc, Invalid DVD Navigation or even Invalid File Structure tend to make you think you have a problem disc… not a problem reader. The reality is that these and just about all other error messages you may get are essentially meaningless and are telling you nothing. They are simply pre-written error messages that may randomly appear from within the software when ANY kind of problem occurs. They are not the result of some hidden and highly technical diagnostic process having been carried out by the software! It’s just smoke and mirrors! You can place a faulty disc into a reader and have it report that there is No Disc… which is just silly because obviously there is a disc in there! So let's get started. Is It A Disc Error or a Player Error? If you have a disc that won’t play in a particular device the first thing to do is to take the disc out and inspect the surface of that disc in good li

Play Disc" Hi, I have a Sony DVP-NS315 DVD Player that was playing just fine until disk error message windows 7 a few days ago when it started giving me an error message saying it "Cannot play this disc." I've tried multiple commerical DVDs, and I hard disk error message get the same message every time. There was a post about a similar issue with a Sony player in this forum, and the advice was to clean the laser lens, so I opened up my player and cleaned the lens. I http://diyvideoeditor.com/guide-to-dvd-cd-game-disc-repair/ tried a disc after that, and it would not spin at all in the player. I tried another one, and it did the same thing. When I went back to the original disc, though, it suddenly started spinning and playing. I then ejected that disc and tried it once more, and it didn't work. Since then, the player has played a disc one other random time, but I can discern no pattern or reason that it would work one time and not http://club.myce.com/f181/dvd-player-cannot-play-disc-206853/ another. Before the player gives the error message, the disc will not spin at all, and I can hear the laser moving around (like an etching sound). When it does play a disc, though, the player spins the disc immediately upon insertion. I've read that some people have got this error message from Sony players and had to replace their players, but because mine works every so often, I wonder if it's salvageable. Could there be some problem with the spinning mechanism that would cause it to work only sporadically? Also, I'm not sure because I was asleep at the time, but there's a chance that the error message could have appeared after a brief power outage at my house. (I had to reset the clock on my microwave when I woke up, and my computer had mysteriously restarted.) Could a power outage have affected the DVD player if it was on and had a DVD inside?

message referring to no disc being in the system. This can be infuriating because you can see that there is a disc, however, the CD / http://www.petervis.com/CD_and_DVD_Players/no-disc-in-cd-player-error/no-disc-in-cd-player-error.html DVD player cannot. Every time the tray closes, the laser beam fires two long bursts of laser light, and the focusing platform moves up and down attempting to focus the beam. This is the time when it is looking for a disc. If the laser has failed, then it will not be able to detect a CD and therefore the error message appears. I normally do two things when this happens. I normally clean the lens just error message in case there is dust on it obstructing the laser path. If cleaning the lens does not solve the problem then I make sure the laser is working. Obviously one should never look directly into the laser unit, you would have to be plain stupid if you did that. The laser light is bright enough that one can see the diffused red light from a distance obliquely. A piece of paper the size of a standard CD within disc error message the tray can also help, because when the tray closes, one can see the diffused red light on the paper. It is usually bright enough and visible from the other side of the paper. If there is no red light, then the laser has failed. Back in the 1990s, I used to fix many of these and it was always either the spindle motor or the laser that failed. These two components are in constant use and wear out the most. Laser diodes do not last forever, especially on the early players manufactured in the 1980s. It would be very surprising to find a player still working from that era. Most of those units used cheap motors where the brushes wore out within a few years. Moreover, if that did not fail, then the laser surely would. The laser diode manufacturing process was not as refined either, and those diodes had a short finite life to them. Most of those early CD players would be hard to find as they often ended up in landfill. I have come across many high-end players of recent time that use the same cheap mass produced drive mechanisms. Moreover, most of those failed within a few years as well. This is a shame, as one would expect high-end players to have better components for the mechanism; however, it is usually the same cheap mecha
