LG rh2t80 error message?

Fails to recognise commercial DVDs. Puts up error message "Unknown disk....." Happened 4 months after yearly manufacturer's warranty expired and LG not offering a repair. Keep finding lots of online comments that this may be a common fault with LG DVD products. Any ideas? Any comments? Has this happened to you? Thinking about requesting repair under statutory warranty that DVD should last longer than 17 months if I can substantiate it is a common fault may have more grounds.

LG Video, DVD Players

Solution: DVB-T RH2T80 will not read dvd because of a errant signal from a handheld video camera (HHVC) that was incorrectly disconnected from the dvd unit. Do the following methodically: reconnect HHVC to AC power then connect the video transfer cable...then power up the HHVC and play a disc . Now , at any point, methodically stop the disc,powerdown the HHVC and remove the video cable. This is how I regained control of the dvd player after a week of no access. In addition I immediately managed to recreate the conditions that produced the message "unrecognized disc". I then repeated the above process to regain control once again of the dvd player function. There is no reason to bin the recorder or replace the dvd unit. So invest a few minutes and save yourselves the dollars.

Same problem, just sent an email off to LG, they just said out of warranty blah blah. Would be very interested to find out about this statutory warranty. You spend a reasonable amount of money on a dvd player, I would expect it to last 3 or 4 years minimum
