    We put a brand new movie in, and player started to shake during loading. and reported "wrong disc" on the screen. We took the movie back for a new copy, and same thing happened. We cleaned laser, unplugged player, etc... always the same result. The weird thing is that it still plays all of our old movies, HELP?!

    wrong disc message

  • ksrk_99 Dec 27, 2008

    The "wrong disc" error shows up - for the same DVDs that it was playing before and for new ones. Nothing happened in the meantime; meaning no move; no moving/dropping/rattling the DVD player. Tried turning the power off and then on again, disconnecting from the power strip, etc. but nothing helped.

Since 4 days I've searched 99% of internet to fix 'Wrong Disk' solution for my DVDV822-05 Player, but I could not get any such solution. Some solutions for other players of the same company is to change region codes but I could not find these codes for this particular model. I got this player from some other country which I dont know. It's sayying 'Wrong Disk' to all disks either MP3, audio, VCD, DVD etc. It's my humble request to all e-guys and companies to find some solution for this model.

It means the disc is not a format the player supports, or has no playable files.

Hi mgarragh1,
If you have necessary tools and test instruments, know safety precaution in basic troubleshooting try the steps below to solve your problem.
Assuming that the disc is good.
1.Clean the lens. - Sometimes because of dust the lens can't read any disc. Try clean the lens by soft cotton buds. Be careful while doing this.
2.Replace the ribbon - Check the ribbon connected to the lens from the main board for scratch, damage. Once it has an open line then of course the lens can't read the disc. Also try to erase the contact by pencil eraser. If you've done the steps above and the symptoms still there then the next step requires you a little knowledge in soldering technique and reading the ohmmeter.
3.Check the motor - Check the motor that spin the disc with an ohmmeter. You can test it using the ohmmeter (x1) even it is connected on the lens assembly.Good motor - reading should be fairly high and it will spin. Bad motor- reading will drop to low resistance and will not spin.
Hint : 50% of my repaired unit the above parts are commonly caused of the problem.
If you confirmed that you have a defective motor then replace it with a new one. Before replacing the new motor you have to check the clearance of the disc holder with the old one. The clearance should be the same as the old because if not the lens will not read the disc if it is too far or too close.


Ifyou already cleaned the lens, and confirmed that the ribbon is good as well as the motor then I would advice you to send it to repair shop because the next step should be done with an expert because it is quite technical diagnosing the fault between the pick-up lens and the main board.
Hope I helped you.
Have a nice day!
Thanks for using Fixya.

WRONG DISC ERROR WHEN PLAYING A DVD

HI,. this is a lens assembly fault. the lens is malfunctioning or, it may have stopped reading. this wrong disc code is just a universal warning that is concerning a fault if the main board doesn't receive any data(audio,video) when the disc is inserted.

Due to the integrated status of your unit, this will be a costly repair because, the entire assembly is combined together with the vcr section as well.

You will need to replace the entire assembly to fix this issue. the lens has burned out.

you can confirm my diagnosis by preforming a cleaning of the lens with a cleaning disc. if the unit continues to not read or play a CD after the cleaning, this will confirm my diagnosis.

Please rate and have a great day:)

Dvd player will not spin disk

Unfortunately, your DVD player is broken. Portable units like these often get bumped and jostled and the motor that spins the DVD quits (very small and fragile). Sorry, I wish there were a magic button.
