Check voltage output of the power supply.

1. If below the indicated voltage on the output terminals, replace the capacitors across the output terminals with the same specifications.
2. If there's no voltage output at all and the fuse is intact, replace the 8-pin power regulator IC with same specifications.. It is usually DH321 IC.

Did you try cleaning your recorder with a cleaning disc I have the same problom and cleaning helps mine Thanks for the info, know now not to call Philips.

• To switch off the Auto Track function you have to enter
Menu mode.
If you wish to increase track numbers manually, press
TRACK INCR(ement) on the remote control. For further
instructions see Menu mode.
ON (AUTO): The track increments are automatically taken over
from the digital source material or after 2.7
seconds silence during analog recording.
OFF (MANUAL): While recording track numbers can be
incremented manually by pressing TRACK
INCR(ement) on the remote control.
(Minimum track length is 4 sec.) (This can
also be done in Auto track ON mode.)

If you're going to ask for help you should take special care to spell the error correctly. It's only 3 letters "OPC error".

Anyway, what little I could find about it looks like it could be a firmware problem.

you have to change the optical laser

you have to change the lazer!that problem i have too

This has to be done by a certified technician as it is very tricky to get the laser aligned and requires special equipment.

Brand of disk or bad laser alignment can cause this. if you have changed brands of disks go back to the others and if you have not then laser alignment is the most likely cause and can be fixed by a certified technician in this field.

Hi,
try tuning the unit, into the channels. if it,s recording one channel. it could be the possibility that the dvd is tuned in to the t/v incorrectly. refer to the users manual/guide.
on setting up the player to the t/v channels.

Your laser is on it's way out. You can try some service diagnostics but it's likely you need a new laser.
