I have had this player for nearly 3 years and it has worked brilliantly until today.
Now it does not recognise any DVD i try to play.
The screen shows " Loading...... and then says "incorrect disc
It can read an audio CD but not as it used to do.
Does anyone have any ideas why this has happened all of a sudden?
Based upon you description, I'd say that the optics are beginning to fail. Normally when this happens, DVDs are unreadable but Cds can work. Try cleaning the lens with a cotton swab and alcohol. This may help if the lens has a dust film.

Thanks for the advice.
I have already tried a lens cleaning kit but will try your suggestion.
If that fails to resolve the problem is it possible/feasible to repair it.

A lens cleaning kit is nothing but small brushes on a cd. Other than removing loose dust, they are worthless. Cleaning with alcohol will remove any film that may be there. As far as a repair goes, yes it is possible. Costly though, and not usually worth the expense.

Thanks again for your reply, will give it a try,
Paul
