I'd like to put a small but quiet fan right up against the side of the
player so that the player can be tucked back into the entertainment center
and I no longer have to have that relatively large 6" fan propped up on a
box in front of my entertainment center. I'd also like for the fan to be
regular a/c so I can plug it into the switched a/c outlet in my receiver.
Any ideas of what kind of fan to buy and where to buy it (hopefully
relatively inexpensively)?
Thanks,
Hank

P.S. The problem does not lie in its proximity to other heat producing
equipment. I've tried taking it out of the entertainment center with the
cover off and it still overheated. It needs the forced air flow. I'm
trying
to avoid buying a new dvd because it works fine with forced air
ventilation.

This unit doesn't need a fan, it needs a repair.
It's not clear to me whether you want to install a fan that blows through
the player, but that would be a no-go, because the optical mechanism is very
sensitive to dust. It is designed to work only in a dust shielded
environment.
