Thanks. What I can't figure out is that it works in the mornings and not in the afternoon after it gets hot. Maybe too much thermal expansion on the DVD (poor quality?)? Even yesterday when it was only 86 deg F out it happened. Disc has been in there for over a year and the problem just started showing up.

I have seen that this may be the DVD laser going bad. No way I can repair it as all my tools are back home in Vegas.

Hopefully, it is just the disc...
