- Here is another BDPS350 this one will read some DVDs some of the time and no CD or Bluray discs. Lets see if this one cane be fixed, or will magic smoke come out of this one? I'm betting on a whips of smoke myself.

I fixed my old dvd player, I saw some thinks you did on your videos and thank you, all I did was just cleaned some ports of the dvd reader and now its reading discs again and if I am lucky it plays CDs.
The dvd player is the Bench KH6776.
Thanks this saved my player ,I did half a clockwise turn on each screw ,worked a treat,l would never have known what to do without this info .
So glad I watched the Video all the way as I would have missed the Service Menu & how to access them at the end at: 32:45, Cheers! 🙂
I remember those early days of DVDS. I still have a couple of first generation DVDs. I still have my original first DVD player when they first came out and it was 500 bucks USD. I bet that old player will not play todays new DVDs. I think it was a Toshiba.
I have a very old Sony that has only a single red laser. It will not play cdr but will play cdrw and DVD r/rw
As another comment on CD / DVD "rot " I have sometimes used small dabs of "white-out ' to repair small scratches or dimples on the PRINTED SIDE of disks so that the laser would play through minor damaged reflective layers. Your thoughts ?
I have an older sony bluray disc player made in japan i still use it sometimes it came with the back light remote to. I got it open box in the store and it did not have a remote and sony sent me another emote.
OMG I'm having the same issue tonight too only with the BDP-S300. Im wondering if it's the same drive in my older machine, but with faster electronics around it since mine takes forever to do ANYTHING. Same problem: except mine wont read stamped blu rays from Paramount. And I usually only use BluRay to watch Star Trek. All Star Trek on Blu-ray. All Paramount. This is a big issue for me. I love the look of this classy player Im going to attempt this same repair tomorrow. Your awesome, and one of the few in the world with the skills to do these repairs (especially on Beta Machines) so keep it up we all need you and your skill. 🙂
The 300 has a different drive.

Awesome! Another Sony!
I wonder what causes some dual sided pre-recorded DVD's to freeze or not play when they played fine before? I do not scratch my disks. I tried googling it, but cannot find the answer.
I buy tv shows on DVD, and had to replace one set. My new set was all one sided DVD's.
Oh, I had to replace a single sided DVD because it wouldn't play some of the songs of a concert.
Btw, this happens in all of my players.
Try looking up "dvd rot/disc rot" 🙂
The glue that bonds the 2 disks together can break down and attack the reflective surface.
I also have a Sony BPS 350 that I brought from Toronto to Brazil in 2009. It´s been working fine since then, although recently it´s having some hiccups (doesn´t freeze) playing some Blu Ray discs. It still can play DVDs and Audio CDs normally. Since there is no issue with DVDs and CDs I was told by a service agent that the motor mechanism could be faulty. He argued Blu Rays mechanisms wear out quickly as they spin at a much faster speed. I also moved to the seaside in 2018 and I suspect the high humidity could be clouding the lens and the mirrors. I´m puzzled why it´d only happen to a couple of Blu Ray discs while some others play without any trouble. Any clues?
The unit has 3 lasers and 2 lenses. A blue laser for Blu-ray discs with it's own lens and a red and infrared laser which both share the second lens. So it is very possible to have a bad blue laser and the red and infrared to be totally fine as they are seperate units that use their own mirrors and lenses.
Does this adjustment apply to sony ld players that stopped reading the lds and cds as well?
Ld players are totally different.
My Brother gave me a Sony BDP-S360 Blu-Ray Player more than a decade ago & I went to turn mine on about a week ago & mine’s not reading Blu-Ray, DVD or CD Disks either, Wonder if their’s a Systemic issue with Sony Blu-Ray Players, I though it bizarre that TH-cam recommended your Video to me even though I hadn’t performed a search either on Google, TH-cam or anywhere else for that matter, I’ve got some of those Dual Sided Disks at: 14:50, The Rock which I have on DVD with Sean Connery & Nicholas Cage actually has the 1st side of the Film on Side A & second half of the Film on Side B, How weird is that, Bit like a HD version of a VideoCD!

I see that the red laser splits in three beams. Does the infrared and blue laser do the same?
The red and ir take the same path. Into semi transparent mirror then hits the mirror at the bottom. Of the shot over to another mirror on the base up to disk and back to mirror then to the one at the bottom and then back to semi transparent mirror this time through that mirror to the pickup. The blue through semi transparent, through the secondary focus and into the stack with the lens up to the disk and back down to mirror back through secondary focus lens and reflects through beam splitter mirror to the detector.
On my s550, sometimes I could insert and eject the same BD disc several times, and it wouldn't load. One more try, it would work.
Thats kind of how this one was. All disc's were like that. Now it works on DVD every time and bd 2 out of 3 times loads and then it rejects. Take disk our pit back in and it reads. Good enough for what I am doing. If it was a customers set I would be telling them to buy a new one because customers are assholes one rejected disk even if it loads the next time and its coming back as a boomerang.
Why you never adjust the potentiometers which controls the resistance of the laser
To accurately adjust laser power requires a laser power meter which i don't have. Turning the power up is a good way to burn the laser out. Also this one has no adjustment.
Hi Dave, have any of your viewers or yourself used an optical cloth ( like ones given by opticians to clean glasses ) in order to clean lasers and lenses in malfunctioning machines ? I would be tempted to cut up a cloth and apply small cloth tabs to a toothpick so that I could get to small difficult places unreachable with a cotton swab. I have scratched some glasses by using paper napkins, towels or T-shirts as cleaning devices. I learned the hard way.
Can't get to the back of the lens and if you poke something into the mirror it will likely knock it out of alignment.
Got it.....worse and more delicate then Open Heart Nuclear Surgery@@12voltvids I'll see if I can AVOID or LEARN. Thanks for the cooler Canadian storm front. It will be a great TEXAS Weekend to fire up the HOG.
WB we’re famous for the duel disk
My wii won't play my games or audio disc
I wish u could fix my fisher radio no sound to speakers
From my research. Sony updated their Blu-Ray standards. Same problem trying to play all blu ray discs with non-free Debian package. It only plays the older Blu rays.
Same problem on Playstations
Probably the same drive
These older Sony player have lasted well, way beyond their intended lifespan.
You can pick them up very cheaply or for nothing sometimes.
Replacing the laser is just not worth it, and some new lasers have been instock for too long
i have had to return a few that were just dead.
They can still give an excellent performance, and have all the connections that are missing
these days.
yeah picked up an S380 model for £20 off eBay, bonus is that it also plays SACDs in multichannel through HDMI. 🤔🤔
A great buy for £20, i have a number of various models, the S760 can show todays 4K players
a clean pair of heels when it comes to playing DVD's and Blu-Rays
The newer players won't last as long as these have.@@markrowe8824
These old ones have a proper motor in them. The newer had just a cheap dc motor that wore out quickly.
They are like cars, they don't make em like they used to!@@12voltvids
I gave up on disk long ago- Tivo works well- Movies on demand I always rent
Have never rented a movie. Even when there was video stores. Never have had s membership card never rented movies. When we had them at work I would borrow a few for the night but I can say I have never paid to rent a movie and I have never ordered a movie or ppv event on my TV sub. I have the movie channels so I just wait for them to come on the movie channel.
Amazing but true , I went to the Walmart to look for a DVD player Sony I got out at $ 100 .... year 2023-2024 I connected it and it started to fail after so many days I went to a store of new and used things and I go to the area of electronics I see this beautiful dvd player Sony bdp - s350 with its control nothing else I did not have the hdm cable or turn it on I bought it for $30 I got its cables I risked in the store because nothing else I turned it on and I turned it off to pre-test it I took it to my house I installed it to my tv 2024 oled Samsung and fast installed a machine reading dvd blueride and other formats everything works excellent is so good the S-350 that all the oieza this new but its control the batteries rusted inside the base I took cleaned the area where the batteries go and it worked like new *****
