Hi...

We've got a Panasonic dvd player (the S27). It's been through about 4
years of good use, but the last couple of days it's been acting very
strangely. You put in a disk, and as it puts up the progress bar of
reading the directory it gets 1 tick in and then shuts down completely.
Won't power back up unless you unplug it, leave it for 30 seconds, then
plug it back in.

Of course when it comes back up it does the same thing - start reading
the disk, then fritz.

Anything to do with this other than replace it?

Thanks
Mark

Does it still read a CD ?
