Default DVD PLAYER FREEZES UP

GD wrote:
I have DVD player that will freeze up, while playing. The image stays on
but with no further progress. At times when this happens,the player will not
respond from remote control. I pull out power plug, restart movie and often
times it will freeze in almost the same spot on the movie. The DVD is new,
and it happens with others in much the same way. The player is a Cyber Home,
and hasn't had much play time hours. Any Suggestions?




Could be a capacitor in the power supply, dirty optical pickup, dried up
grease, feel free to open it up and fiddle with it, Cyber Home is a
bargain bin cheapie so you won't find a tech willing to work on it and
it would cost more than buying a new one. If it's less than a year old
it might be under warranty.
