The DVD player will play for a few hours and then just stop. I will clean it and then it will play for awhile and stop. Does it on CDs and DVD

Hasn't done it yet. My husband has it where it turns on automatically when the TV is turned on, so it's on a lot. It's been a week since we've had and no problems yet.

You probably won't like this answer. I could only get the player to work on one or two DVDs. I did lots of googling to try to find a fix. Nothing worked. I ended up just trashing it, since it was so cheap. Lesson learned. Find a used one at Goodwill or pay more for a decent unit. You gets what ya pay for.

We absolutely love ours. Every disc we bought has worked. You have to make sure it is the CD+G type. Try different Input options on your tv. If you have done all of this, then its most likely bad.

I have the same player you have and have played those very same blu ray dvd's I would unplug the player.wait a few min. allow it to reboot........andtry it again if all else fails...I would try a different disc from that collection.and If that doest work you may have gotten a defective set of discs.

I did purchase this DVD player a few months ago, used it twice and on the third attempt it ceased to operate. As I had it for a few months, saved the original box but had stupidly disposed of the receipt and rather than going through a lot of uneccesary changes threw the inoperable DVD player in the garbage. But to get your question answered properly, I would suggest that you ask someone who is electronically educated. Sorry, I could not help you.

Yes, that is a software issue as ths does not have a buit in DVD Player. Your PC DVD software player handles this issue. THey player will play any DVD's.

I never had to do any of that with mine, thank goodness. I use DVD-R, I burned, I finalized, and they play in my Samsung and my Mac Mini's drive.I had something odd happen the other day, though; a DVD I ordered from Netflix wouldn't play, even after I cleaned it up, but same DVD would play in my computer's drive. It was a foreign film, but I wonder what it was about a commercial disc that would make the Samsung spit it out every time, telling me "please check the disc"? That's the only time that's happened! I wonder if by now it's time to clean the laser.

The unit plays CD & DVD's with screen open, or closed. You have to turn off the unit manually.

We've had nothing but trouble with ours...... now ours will play for a few minutes, then the picture goes black while sound still works (IF you turn it off, then it will come back on for a couple minutes before going black again)....... getting ready to purchase a new one (NOT RCA THIS TIME!).

My Unit never played DVDs from the beginning. Never played DVDs from the box. I thought it was a region code issue but it is not. Then I though it was an Firmware issue so I upgraded from V26 to V29. Still does not play DVDs. I bought it from Amazon LLC directly. If I would have found out this after I purchased the unit, I would have gave Amazon a piece of my mind. But it's too late now as a couple years has gone by. Please learn from my mistake. I bought a VERY EXPENSIVE CD Player (Philips HTS8100/37).

Maybe you need to clean the DVD player. Possibly the disc itself is scratched too.

Dang, I wish someone would reply to this. I've had this DVD player hooked up to a Sony 40 inch for a few days and I'm having the same problem.

My player worked fine for 8 months; now, however, it doesn't play any dvd. The screen message is "invalid disk"I have reset the default settings, and checked the connections. any suggestions?

I don't have this plugged into my car but I'd say if you did, the DVD player would keep running because you have to turn the switch on the side for it to turn off. Once the player is off, and you turn it back on, yes, you have to restart the movie all over again.

Hi Bread Sandwich, running the CD cleaner is like playing regular disc. If you've done this and getting the same message, your player needs to be serviced by going to http://eservice.sony.com. -Vincent

Mine is playing having the same problem intermittently. Some play and some don't. My husband, the engineer, suggests cleaning the lens that reads the disc, as over time it may become dirty. He would use rubbing alcohol on a Q-tip. We have not yet tried this, but if it works, it's a cheap solution.

No it just plays regular dvds and music cds, it is a very nice little dvd player.
