Any and all repairs within the device should be performed by a qualified professional. Do not dismantle your unit as you run the risk of damaging the unit, or getting hurt!
If the unit won't play any discs at all (or just a few select ones), the device is at fault here. In most cases, if the mechanics still work, this means that the sector was not found. This is most commonly caused by dirt accumulated on the lens used to focus the laser (this dirt will obstruct the laser, leading to it being unable to read pretty much anything). Alternatively, the laser can be burned out (they do have a lifespan).
If the disc won't spin at all (it tries to, but fails), or if the laser cage won't move at all, the motors may be at fault. In any other case, the electronic components may be malfunctioning.
Will HD movies appear in HD on a standard laptop monitor?

How much space would a blu-ray hold if it were the size of a laser disc?

What does class 720p led HDTV mean?
720p is the minimum resolution for televisions to be considered High Definition. A 720p LED backlit screen would be very unusual in today's market, as the LED backlit models are the higher priced ones, and almost all are capable of Full HD, or 1080p displays.
720p means the display can show an image with a maximum of 720 vertical lines of resolution. The 'p' part means Progressive, so the screen's 720 lines are updated all at once. About half of the HD channels on TV at the moment broadcast in 720p.
Which cables can carry an HD signal?
For residential high definition video, HD cables are restricted to HDMI. It is the global standard for domestic HD and has been adopted by manufacturers and broadcasters for commercial reasons including copy protection. There are devices that convert HDMI to CAT5 or CAT6 cables to increase the maximum distance of the cable, up to 100 feet or more compared to 20 to 30 for most simple HDMI cables.
Early HD equipment featured analog component HD connections using 3 co-ax cables. These were quickly taken off the market when HDMI was introduced and it is rare to find analog HD interfaces today.
In the commercial and broadcast field, co-ax cable remains the most common interface using SDI and HD-SDI formats. Increasingly, HD signals are being carried over networks although it will be some time before this method replaces the traditional co-ax cables.
Does vizio 3d led tv have cinema 3d?
No. Cinema 3D is brand name of LG. Vizio uses the same technology, originally use in theaters but use a different name.
monitors can only handle a certain refresh rate. the monitors cababilities will be in the handbook.
When you push the recall button your HDTV shows 480i not 720p or 1080i is this HD programming?
480i is the standard television picture resolution and it isn't an HD signal.
Your TV is telling you what it's reading from the signal. You may be able to change it, but then again, it could just be a 480i signal for that particular program. Just because you have HD cable or are getting HD off the air, not every program will be in high definition.
It's Argos' own brand. The TV is likely made by a Turkish company called Vestel. I have a 16" Matsui TV made by Vestel and the quality is very good.
How do you restore channels on your TV?
You should be able to do that in your user's menu. Just press the `MENU' button on your TV's remote.
What is the refresh rate for a Samsung led tv?
Samsung LED TV's typically have a refresh rate of 120 hertz. The refresh rate is considered a important factor of quality in high end electronic televisions.
What is a good small cheep hd TV to get?
There are an increasing number of low cost televisions available in larger electronics stores, department stores and supermarkets. Generally, they tend to be a lightweight build and don't have the features of more expensive brands. Despite the low cost, all tend to be good value for money because it's very hard to build a bad television with current technology.
To decide which is the best for you, check that the size is right, check that you have the right inputs (one or more HDMI and analog inputs, for example) and then take a look at the picture. If you like the picture, it's a good choice. If you don't like the picture, it's a poor choice even if it is the cheapest in the store. Your opinion of the picture quality is the most important consideration.

Will an hd tape download to Movie Maker and then burn to a regular DVD disk?
If I know what you are talking about I prity sure that doing that is considered illegal.
Why does a Dutch TV give a perfect picture but no sound when used in Ireland?
That depends on where the sound IF is located within the video signal. If the TV works with sound OK in one country and the sound doesn't work in another, that's because the subcarrier has been placed at a different location in the signal's spectrum. The other possibility is that they're using a different type of modulation.
Just buy another TV. It'd probably be chaper.
Can irun analog cable through an HDTV lcd tv if idon't have HDTV?
You can but the picture won't be that great and if I were you I would just call your cable provider and upgrade to digital cable because most markets are going to a digital signal now analog is like cassette tape not cool anymore . I must warn you though once you see HD you'll never wanna go back to regular cable.
What is the fine for tampering with a cable utility box?
It depends on the jurisdiction you are in. In most countries or states, tampering with any kind of utility box on the street or in a home may well be considered to be criminal. If the tampering results in damage, which is likely, charges of criminal or malicious damage may apply. If the tampering is with a view to obtaining services without paying for them, offences of theft or fraud might be considered.
In most jurisdictions, fines may be considered but the offences are also very likely to carry a jail term as well as or instead of a fine.
On balance, it's probably best to leave all adjustments to the local cable box to the cable company themselves. I understand that most prisons have a very limited cable service.
Is it ok to use Windex on Plasma TV?
Shouldn't be an issue, but if you want to be really sure, Windex just came out with an Electronics cleaner and a microfiber cloth to wipe it
Cold plasma is formed when a modulated electric field is applied to a pair of electrodes. Oxygen molecules in the air that come into contact with the plasma break down into reactive oxygen species (ROS). Organic substrates such as mold spores, bacteria, and viruses that are exposed to these broken down oxygen molecules are destroyed or rendered harmless on contact. Therefore the air becomes free of bacteria and viruses.
What is an image which can be projected onto a screen is called?
It is called a real image. Only a real image can be projected onto a screen.
Are analog t.v.s completely obsolete now?
No, you can still use an analog TV, but you will need a converter box to receive digital cable.
My tv has AV inputs but doesnt hAVe a coax connection?
Then you have a MONITOR , just a TV with no internal TUNER. Sometimes a MONITOR is made to a higher standard then a regular TV.
