    Have you cleaned the lens?

    If I tell you who I work for, I'm not allowed to help you. If I don't say, then I can help you with questions and fixing products. Regardless, there's still no secret EU law.

    Normally a DVD lens cleaner, although it's quite difficult if it won't read DVDs!

    If it's still in warranty, you could take it back (Acoustic Solutions are Argos own brand aren't they?) and probably get it swapped

    It's a fairly common issue with cheapo Chinese players, and it's probably terminal.

    Have a go at cleaning the lens, but if I were a betting man I'd say you're looking at getting a new player.
