A very common fault with DVD players is the mini tag switch that lets the CPU know when the draw is open or closed...if this is faulty then you will never get your DVD out! another Fault could be that the Eject switch is faulty either dry joint..or there has been some foreign subtance find its way in there and is causing it to short. to get your dvd disc out (disconnect the unit from the mains power) very important that you disconnect it!....next take a phillips screwdriver and undo all the screw to open the unit...the first the you should see is the black deck with the dvd there...using a small screwdriver there should be two small screws holding down the top plastic "T" Looking Plate take them out and pull the "T" plate up and the disc shoould be just sitting there on the axis...remove it...now put the screws back in the "T" plate and then put all the screws back into the outer cause of the unit!....now power up and just see if this has stopped the fault of it not opening...if not you need to take it back for reapair either at the place of purchase or a local repair store....But atleast you got your dvd back!!....hope this helps,ben

The set -up is listed on page (7) of your owners manual. When asking a question like this it is important to say what type of connection you are trying to make. It is also important to say what type of cables you intend on using for the connection. If you do not have a copy of the owners manual, you can find a copy on the provided web link. It will show you with a diagram all of the possible way to connect the dvd player to the television. If you are still having a problem with the connections you can call the emerson customer support at this telephone number. 1-800-256-2487. I hope this information helps you with your problem. http://tv.manualsonline.com/manuals/mfg/emerson/ewd2204_1.html

That's not uncommon. One side fails, the other side can't play. You need to get the tape out and make sure that if you break the tape that there are no pieces stuck int he mechanism. You may need to crack it open to get to the inside to remove any broken tape. Be VERY careful around the heads. Blow it out and use a good head cleaner to clean the heads. Then see if there's a reset procedure or simply unplug it for awhile.
