Worst DVD Player Recorder/VCR I've Owned
by Rich George on Apr 20th, 2008 at 9:59 PM:
I have had problems with this unit from day one. It is continuely locking up when trying to play store-bought DVD's especially Disney produced. When I say "locking up" I mean LOCKING UP. Many times I have had to pull the plug in order to clear the lockup, pressing the eject button or the power button did nothing. Took it to the shop, they replaced a board worked for 2 month and now that it is out of warranty, it's doing exactly the same thing. So now what do I do, fix it again, out of my own pocket or take it to the desert and use it for target practice. Option 2 seems the most satisfying.
CRAP CRAP CRAP

This CRAP is just that...CRAP. The LRY-517 is a total POS and if I were you I would steer FAR away from it. We bought it to transfer our tapes to DVD and now the d**ned thing will not even recognize disks of ANY format. STEER CLEAR and NEVER will LG CRAP grace my house again!
Works great!

We purchased this unit over 2 years ago and have been thoroughly enjoying this use of this DVD recorder, player combo.
LRY-517 fails to read DVD over time

Interesting to learn that others are having the same problems. Common theme is after around a year it stops reading some DVDs. This just started for me and I am concerned that the problem will progress. Is there any troubleshooting advice or tips for care that will extend life?
