Hello,

I have a problem with my Toshiba DVD player (RD-XV47KF): I inserted a CD containing photos, and the player won't read the CD. What's worse, when I try to eject the CD, nothing happens. The CD seems to be stuck in the tray.
I tried inserting a paperclip into the hole; the player turns off but that's it.

Please help me!

Thank you in advance,

Lalala68

Configuration: Windows XP / Internet Explorer 7.0

Typically, a hole near the drive allows you to open it without power; on any PC drive, if you have one, push all the way into the hole, and try to grab the edge of the drive to pull it out, without breaking it of course.

This is what I did: device powered off, needle in the hole but still nothing: I can't get the carriage out :/

maybe search on Google how to do it, or explore the machine!
