DVD player that stopped responding to the front panel buttons.
I pressed the "key lock" button on the r/c and normal service resumed.
This is a player , not recorder , why a key lock function?

VCR that would immediately eject tape after it was loaded, used in childs
room. Opened the case and found a dried-out, mummified goldfish corpse in
the mechanism. Upon removal, the VCR worked perfectly.
