I own a Go Video DVR4000, which has worked fine for years. Recently, I had a series of digital pictures recorded on a disc. For some unknown reason I cannot view them on my TV. The discs work ok on a friend's player, but not mine.Other cd's work on my 4000. Can you help me?

    What does difference of media mean?

  • spinoso Feb 18, 2008

    Don't understand "different type of media", different recorder". You mean buy a new player since mine can't be repaired

    It's worth a try, thank you

Now that today's CD-ROMs are 40 and 50 times faster than their progenitors the problem is that they're too fast. Modern CAV (constant angular velocity) CD-ROM drives require a second or two to spin up before they start reading. That's not a problem if you're copying large amounts of data, but if you just want to view a file or two on a CD or play a game from a CD-ROM, that lag can be annoying.

    There's still a solution to that problem. Re copy again the cd or burn it again with the help your friend which was it can read by your friend player. Burn / copy it in the slowest speed 32x could be better so that your player can read it now.. A 8x CD-R / CD-RW will do..

    There are few reasons that it might not work
    Difference of media
    Different type of Recorder (that media has been written)
    Cleanliness of the lens

    Please check the those and post your comments

I have a Sony DVD recorder player RDR-GX257. Player works fine. Disc recorder stopped working....

1. If your Sony DVD recorder player RDR-GX257's disc recorder has stopped working, don't despair! There are a few things you can try to get it up and running again.

2. First, check to see if the disc recorder is properly connected to your TV and to an electrical outlet. If everything is plugged in correctly, try pressing the "Reset" button on the back of the DVD recorder.

3. If the reset doesn't work, try unplugging the DVD recorder from the power outlet for a few minutes, then plug it back in. This sometimes clears any glitches that may be causing the problem.

4. If the DVD recorder still isn't working, it's possible that the disc itself is the problem. Try inserting a different disc into the player and see if it will play. If it does, the first disc was probably the issue. If the second disc doesn't play either, then the problem is most likely with the DVD recorder itself.

5. If you've tried all of the above and the DVD recorder still isn't working, you may need to take it to a repair shop or contact Sony customer service for further assistance.

Dvd "unknown disc" message coming up

Have you tryed to use a lens cleaning disc yet. The laser lens on these players and recorders alike, must have the lens cleaned every oince in awhile. If that does not help, most likly you have a bad laser pickup assembly and you will need to replace the plaer as to have that repaiered, you could buy a new unit. Good Luck
