correction in the above article, I meant speakers and not "speakes" and it also should have been temptation, not "temption". I'm sorry for the mistakes.

Imoudu it remains undisputed that plenty of our (African countries) electronic gadgets are counterfeit. Its easy for a fabricated DVD player to tempt a willing buyer with its appealing in-built speakes and fancy flashy colourful LED lights, and when a buyer factors in the attractive price he/she falls for the irresistable temption. But shortly after briefly operating, its recident devils show up. Wont play DVD discs or USB flashdiscs. Your repaired one allegedly plays some CDs I have never heard of before and its SMPS is rather smallish. Its after I had bought a genuine DVD player by a reputable maker from Korea that my troubles with fake DVD players ended. It served me well for nine years, no repair, no nothing. But you see Imoudu, when everyone wanted to own them, shopkeepers made money by selling them and the disks, and spare parts, while technicians waited for them on their workbenches. So in as much as we may despise such like gadgets, on the other hand they immensely contribute to a thriving economy.

Although this appears to be a universal unit that will play both VCDs and DVDs, different wavelength lasers are required for playing the two different types of media.
It is most likely that the part of the laser that plays DVDs has worn out or failed.

You can recalibrate the laser. I forgot about that my self. It has been a while since I have done any repairs on a optical drive.

It was not a DVD player. It is a vcd/ CD player. Vcd players can not play DVDs.
