I have a DVD1, which started to randomly not play/read DVDs some time ago. Since a week  it doesn't read DVD any more. Is this a known problem and can it be fixed?

Thanks

Bernd

Whilst the unit is not playing, is the disk spinning?

Given that it was intermittent before it stopped working altogether, I suggest your first step is to clean the laser lens.
