Panasonic DVD-LS50 7-Inch Portable DVD Player
HO3 fixable...
This player has been great for us for about 14 months. Tonight we ran into the infamous H03, but had it up and running again after reading the trouble-shooting ideas below.  <br /> <br />The initialization trick (back skip/play/pause simultaneously) did not work, but taking the bottom off of the player and fiddling with the transport mechanism did the trick. For details, see \\"Jedi\\"'s review below (approx. 40 reviews from the end). It is not a difficult exercise, so do not be intimidated by taking the screws out and getting your fingers in there. You will need a jeweler's philips-head screwdriver (the tiny, long ones). <br /> <br />As many have said, the unit is sturdy, easy to operate, and has an attractive screen. Clearly, Panasonic is looking the other way on this one, or we'd have heard of a recall by now.
