Never, never buy combo devices, for this reason.

Does anyone know a supplier of Samsung parts or even if the drive assemblies are
the same from other Samsung DVD players ?

DVD players are pretty much disposable nowadays, Asda were selling DVD
players for £25 the other week.

My cambridge audio DVD player went belly up after about 14 months, and
I replaced it with a £30 Sharp from Dixons.

I sold the Cambridge Audio one on Ebay for spares or repair and made
£15 on it. Net cost for a new DVD player - £15.
