What is your angle with Philips ? This is the third different post now,
wanting to know about DVD / DVD-R service, with a particular interest in
this company's products. Do you work for them and just want to know how your
service information is received in the trade, in which case just ask, or do
you have a specific Philips product-related problem that you would like the
group to try to help with ?

As I said to you before - if it's a general enquiry - outside of warranty,
there is little mileage in repairing the things commercially. Service
information for many makes is sketchy at best, non-existent at worst.
Spares, if available, are prohibitively expensive, with such items as
lasers, often costing more than the replacement value of the player - double
by the time some honestly-charged labour has been added.

DVD recorders are, for the most part, unrepairable by any method other than
board-swap, which for many manufacturers' products, is a non-starter. These
items are also great shop time-wasters, with many reported problems being
ultimately down to user error. Remember back a couple of years. Owners had
trouble sticking a VHS tape in the front of a machine, and getting it to
record whilst they were actually there, let alone doing it on the timer.
Multiply that by three, and throw in about a hundred different sytems (
DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R and so on with a new one every week ... ) and you've
got DVD recording.

Home cinema systems are a little more commercially viable, as they have a
higher perceived value by their owners, but still, the repair cost is often
only marginally of advantage over a replacement supermarket model, with a
shiny new 2 year warranty.

As far as Philips DVD's go, the majority of the problems that I've seen,
have been power supply related. Typically, diodes on the secondary side of
the supply go short circuit. However, in saying this, just this week, I had
a Philips machine with a system control processor problem. I haven't checked
into the cost of replacement parts yet, but via a third party supplier, it
probably won't be worth doing, as it is only a cheap machine.

Does this begin to tell you what you want to know ... ??

This is exactly the kind of information I need.
I would like to have a good initiative for my profession in electronics
service with that product so that I could learn things faster.

Glad it was of some help. I guess that you still didn't understand the
Wikipedia entry on top posting though ...

Looks like he understood the information on when it was preferable to
top post. Which in his reply was acceptable.

When replying to a long post and not to specific points within the
post, it is acceptable to top post a statement that the information is
useful, or a thank you for the following information.
Top posting when replying to long posts and not making specific
responses to information within the long post is easier to read and
understand.

By the way, I would like to know more in details about the power supply
problems, if possible.

I take interest in power supplies than any other modules in the DVD
product design.
