    I find the parts and fix them. After you have done it a few times it's not that hard. For my personal cameras, I was using Olympus but I switched to Nikon, I get broken cameras on eBay the same model then I take one apart and put it back together for practice because every camera is different, and then I have spare parts and extra cameras. I like to have sacrificial cameras because they might get destroyed. It's good to have spare parts, I just got a P520 18-megapixel for 18 bucks, I think it might work because I diagnosed the problem before.

      I'm not a camera tech. I'm an electronics engineering technician. The newer cameras are easier to work on just like everything else. The goal is to make assembly faster with less labor. Less soldering, fewer failures. It just makes things easier to work on.

    I recharge all my batteries: Alkalines I set 1.65V (1.65V, AAAA 2mA, AAA 4mA, AA 8mA, C 16mA, D 24mA), PP3 9V battery: 9.9V (2mA), Lithium 1.83V (AAA 1mA, AA 2mA), NiMH 1.50V (AA 20mA). The secret is the LOW charging Current, take more than 1 day to rechard it, but don't leak and you can use it several times.

    Thanks for taking the time to record and edit this video. I too purchased one of these units at a garage sale for about $5. Played music CDs. Didn't play DVD's and found your video. I followed the instructions. Having some existential evaluations on stuff, outdated after a decade so purchasing technology heavy items, like cars, might not be a long-term value. Newest blue-rays players lowest cost about $70. What is my time worth? (old farmer joke, punchline being "What's time to a pig?"). Following your instructions took about a half an hour to update to 6.20 firmware, but DVDs still not playing. No worries. Thanks again.

      It is probably not a software problem. Your Sony bluray player has 2 lasers. A blue laser for BD discs and a red laser for DVD discs. The DVD laser is probably broken. How ever it could simply be dirty. You could try cleaning it. Also, you could use the BD player only for BD disks and a cheap DVD player for DVDs.
