Hello
I have a Samsung DVD V3650 combo unit ..
The unit will read and play SVCD JPEG and audio CD with no problems but
when
I insert
a DVD movie it loads spins but will not read the disk .after about 5
minutes
of searching
I get a can't read disk message
I am assuming that because it will read the other formats the laser
should
be OK

DVD players use two lasers; one IR laser for CD's and a red laser for DVD
discs. My guess is that there is a problem with the red laser.
