JVC DRM10S DVD Recorder/Player
a possible fix for the LOADING error
Update on machine. I've had the dvd recorder for almost 4 months and I think I've figured out why the Loading problem happens. Everytime the laser hits a smudge on the dvd disc, the Loading problem happens. Discs with scratches or smudges will cause the recorder to reset and flash Loading....    I don't think I could have bought a better recorder. The only thing I would change is I'd get a recorder with a hard drive built in  ******************************************    I bought this machine from a competitor site and I won't say where, but I will say it has been relatively problem free for the five days I have had it.     The operation is very easy (and I am not one who gets instructions and operation manuals right the first time around) and I learned how to do the basic recording and programmed recording on the first day.    Now for the LOADING error. I notice that if you power down the machine without a disc in the tray, you get the error message and you can't open the tray for a long while. But it will open later than sooner. So if you just remember to leave a dvd in the tray when you turn it off, you shouldn't get the error anymore.    I don't have any complaints about the recorder. Maybe the factory fixed the problem. I forgot to mention this machine is refurbished so maybe that's the difference.
