how to eject tde system dvd player dvd?

Unfortunately, getting your DVD player to eject the dvd will require you to open the unit, and disassemble the internal subassembly which contains the laser unit. It is a tedious and technically detailed process, one which I have gone through at least twice with my 7 inch top loader with built-in LCD screen (model number C17P0100).

It is not a fun thing to do.

Finally my DVD player gave up the ghost on me, and tells me that no disc has been inserted when I put in a disc. It appears as though my laser diode has burned itself out after many hours of constant use.

I'm sitting here trying to devise a way to use the LCD display in some other electronics project - however since it uses Red Green and Blue signals, without using a SCART or similar interface to convert from component to RGB, I might just be junking the whole shebang.

What is in a name?
