My DVD player was playing orginal DVD's and burned copies, for a long time, but latley it started to play only orginal DVDs and stop reading the copies,can you tell me why this happened?
You could also check out www.llamma.com - they've been really great for me to repair electronics. Here's the link that, although specializes in xbox repairs, gives tutorials on DVD cleaning and laser repair, etc. Good luck.

Possible a weak laser not a DIY proposition. If your DVD player is a budget model it may not be worth repairing.
Alternatively if the recordable DVDs are a little old it could be early failure on the part of DVDs themselves. Some of the cheaper ones don't last long. Having said that some of the cheaper ones do.
