Try a new / different disk recognized by this recorder. Make sure you're using DVD+RW disks. Others will not be recognized. Toshiba R410 Specs CNET

0274,0277,0271. If you wish to get more; check the site linked here. It has set-up code list & set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. Pull up older posts. http://electrohelponline.blogspot.com/ http://remotesearch.blogspot.com/

Did you try plugging it into a different socket before concluding it is dead?

get a new one amd instage it and tell the manger that it is not working

It is possible that the disks are not finalized. You may need to configure it to auto finalize, which is off by default. It would be impossible to have more than one title on a disk if you always auto finalized. Check your manual, and finalize your disks. Many times marginal disks will play OK in the unit they were recorded on, but not so well in other players. The media (disks) could be the problem as well. On a side note, the DR410 will NOT burn DL (dual layer) disks. I hope this helps and good luck.

if you can remove the cover of your dvd recorder, then access the power supply board first check if their is bulging capacitor or transformer which emits the noise.if ok, observe if the noise is coming from the dvd burner during recording.

I believe you only need to format DVD RW disks. These are re-writeable and need to be pre-formatted before use. "R" disks can be extended with additional material before finalization, but existing material can't be written over. They are not formatted before use.

You may have a timing gear issue, broken loading belt, or stripped gears.

try different type of blank dvd according to your dvd recorder format. hope this info help you resolve your problem.

do you have dvd in jacks on your rca...direct tv out to dvd in.....(this setup u need to scan for channels on the dvd)..note some premium channels will not record on dvd (will and still record on vhs)

the dvd recorder isnt a HD recorder so nothing you can do will allow it to record it in HD, you could improve the quality though if you try using DVD+R DL discs instead, that will double the available space for recording so it should improve quality somewhat

1. Please reset the unit by unplugging it from the wall for 2-3 minutes.
2. If problems persist please email Toshiba Customer Solutions Department at [email protected].

Please include the following information in your email.

Issue with unit

Press Setup on the remote > General Settings (the first option down) > Display (the second option in this list) > OSD Language *the first line) and choose your language (English should be the first in the list). Use the up/down arrows to change lines followed by Enter to select the option.

If you are using a universal remote that doesn't have the setup button that works, you need a different remote. Remotes.com has a new remote almost identical to the one that came with the unit as well as used remotes. http://www.remotes.com/remotes/servlet/rs?a=gmi&uuid=12832146296260&smodel=DR410&brand_pn=TOSHIBA_DR410 .

I hope this helps.

Hi, well when this happens usually it is the PSU in the unit that has faulted, perhaps you should take it to a good reputable Toshiba repair center and ask for a "Quote" before proceeding with any repairs.
Now to get your disc out, if you look at the front of the DVD cover, you should see a small hole, using say a paper clip straightened out, insert into this hole and push it in, keep pushing until you feel/hear a click, now keep on pushing gently in, and the draw should pop open, now you can remove your DVD.

go to your setup menu and shut all timers off...(are you trying to record HBO...this will occur when trying to record any of HBO/Disney) check your manual and make sure you have the right type of disk...+/- makes a big difference
