How can i get dvd player to open to retrieve disk

Sometimes unplugging it for a couple of minutes will reset it. If not; it's time for a new one anyway. Unscrew the cover and get your disk.

We had a similar problem last week. Turned out that it was a minor mechanical problem caused by pushing the tray in manually instead of waiting the millisecond for the bar/button to engage.

maybe it's problem of your player. does it old? you can change another player.

You are replying to an old thread. notice the datestamp is from 5 yrs ago. You've done this same thing many times today. This and other OPs is/are no longer active on the forum.

.......A distant whirring sound is heard, as Nadascamp's "Debbie does Dallas" DVD slowly ejects from the machine.
The worker at the Recycling Plant scratches his head and wonders how the machine suddenly sprang to life, considering the fact that it has been unplugged since it was dumped here in 2009.

OOOH! I just love old tech ghost stories! ((shudder)) A chill just went down my spine reading your haunted post Lordy ((shudder))

Much better then Poe.

.....and somewhere in the distance, a dog barked.

As an old friend used to say.
