What happens if the player stops playing most dvd's (after just one year)?

Renee, Have not had any issues with my DVP3680as of yet, however have had for only about 4 or 5 months. It appears that several other users have had the same problem you are experiencing. The previous model that I had lasted 2-3 years, howver only the HDMI video failed on mine but did play. I hope this helps!

I have not had that problem with any of our DVDs yet. I would recommend contacting the company and request an exchange. Good luck!

It'll depend on the severity of the scratches. I have played DVDs with minor scratches without issue. Sever scratches will need to be remedied, no matter which player you use.

Yes it resumes where you stopped before. If you pause the DVD, and the player shuts down, it will start where you paused it. Great feature. Also love that it has a USB port.

not sure , also HD DVD players no longer are selling,unless you have an old one, Blue ray is the best choice, however the HD DVD player will play regular DVD' s

You're lucky yours plays discs at all, or can update its firmware. My player stopped connecting (wi-fi or ethernet) or playing discs within 6 months. I spent hours on the phone with many different LG agents, and the conclusion was that they couldn't help me, and to write a customer complaint. I wrote 2 complaints via the website, and both were unanswered.

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.

Yup....it seems there are problems. My player just stopped playing DVD video discs (ie any non-bluray disc). UGH...very frustrating. I must admit that up until now I've been very pleased with the player. All I can figure is that its one of the latest firmware upgrades. Back to the factory...

It happened to me once after I moved to a new house and the DVD player was shaken. It loses the laser alignment and can not read the disc credentials. I sent it to Sony, they charged me about $80, and then after that and they fixed the problem. Has your player moved or shaken?

Yes- We play very few Blu-ray and the unit has had no issues with either commercial DVD's or most I have burned in the past. It does not play DVD ROM's (which kind of stinks because I'd burned a lot of older TV series to this format) It also will not play most +R recorded media (sometime yes, usually no) so check what media you burned to.

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.

Same answer as kd. My dvd/blu ray works without issues. Streaming can get bogged down when internet is acting up or other devices in the house are streaming and taking up bandwidth. If your player skips frames on all your discs, I would return it.

if you unplugged it and plugged it back on, and nothing positive happens.....throw it out! panasonic makes garbage dvd players. it is not the panasonic of the past. i keep 5 dvd players in the house, cause i am a movie buff., and in the past i've had all panasonic players. those days are over. i have one panasonic player left and that hiccups every eight minutes on recordable discs. on your problem, maybe you can contact panasonic.com or call them and they can send you, or you can download their software update. it didnt work for me, but it might work for you. if mechanically inclined, and not under warranty....you can take off the cover, unscrew the carriage cover and remove the disc. also sometimes, if the disc is not in the slot correctly., it could jam up, and shut itself off. my dmp-bd871 played well for 4 months, and now it will not accept any disc. i will admit, that before it went kaput, it had the best picture of any other player i've had................irene
