Durabrand PDV-705 Portable DVD Player Questions & Answers
DVD stops playing in middle
What might be happening is a misread of the disk or a buffer error, these happen often, and can be fixed sometimes by cleaning the lens, cleaning and relubricating the guide rails and making sure the rubber bumper gromets are not worn down. Now these are all of the mechanical things you can do. The problem could also be a bad memory sector in the play back buffer, or a store and hold voltage could be off a bit (indication of a bad capacitor).
I hope this helps.

have you tried a cleaning disk and make sure the movie disks have no finger prints on them that will stop it from loading.

It cant read a dvd "no disc"
Check and make sure the laser eye is clean and clear of dust and smudges. With player OFF, blow across laser eye. Try cleaning with soft dry Qtip. Otherwise you probably have a bad laser drive or bad drive ribbon cable.

Same as other poster: Player only plays black and white
It sounds like the circuitry which actuates the color drives for the screen are not working, this would ba analogous to adjusting for a B&W picture on a color TV you have color but the screen shows black and white. I would get a schematic for this set and measure the voltages on the color processor that connects to the screen since you know that the external jack has color. If possible I can help you troubleshoot this, if you need me to help out.

Won't turn on
If a portable, could be no charge or bad battery---output voltage is marked on the charger and can be tested with a meter---if voltage and battery are good (most units will work with the charger hooked even if battery is bad) then the unit has either a damaged jack where charger connects or has a power supply problem inside it.

Durabrand PDV-705 portable dvd player plays
I fixed one with this problem today. The problem was in the switch that is depressed when you close the lid. That switch turns the the screen and the sound off when the lid is closed, and back on when you open it.
I has to remove the back cover, spray the switch with contact cleaner (and immediately press the switch in and out several times quickly to help the contact cleaner to work). This solved it. Put the cover back on and all is well.
