DVD Video - DVD Player Freeze Up

Default DVD Player Freeze Up


I've had a Panasonic VCR / DVD combo player / home theater system for
about 3 years now. In the last month or so, I've noticed it freezes up
when playing DVDs. I think it's when the player changes to the second
layer on the DVD. Might it just be a dirty lens? Would a cleaning kit
help? Any advice will be appreciated.

Have you checked the Panasonic website for firmware upgrades for that unit?

Pretty common problem with combo units becuase they are made much more
cheaply than standalone units. You'll pretty much have to get a new DVD
player....don't get a combo player this time.
