Sony DVP S725D Operating Noise????

John Young (Harmless) posted this on Sunday, 17th September 2000, 23:00

I just bought this player over a week ago and am very pleased with it. However I have noticed that it can be quite noisy while playing discs - on certain chapters on different DVD`s you can here the motor running. Can anyone with this player tell me if this is common when playing discs on this machine. Its not there all the time, just on various chapters. Its not that it bothers me that much - I can put it in a cabinet to deaden the noise - I just want to know if anyone else has experienced this. Its still a fantastic machine - picture and sound quality blow the Panasonic A350 away which I bought this player to replace. Mind you the Panasonic was VERY quiet so maybe that is why this player sounds louder - apart from this it operates flawlessly - its multi region with macrovision disabled - got it from richer sounds for £380.00 with a 3 year guarantee!!

I have the same problem and found a way to reduce it.
go into the diagnostic setup ( in standby press "title", "clear" then power on) go to option 1 Auto alignment and then select the disc type you are playing after it has finished leave the disk in and it will return to where you where in the movie.
