How do I remove a DVD from my Digihome TV!!!

Hi, I put a dvd in the dvd slot of my husbands newish digihome tv and I cant find the button to get it out or return it to tv!!!

Please help if you can by telling me what I should do - I have tried pressing the two buttons that are by the slot but nothing happens and I cant see an "eject" button on the remote! Is there a symbol I should be looking for ? As you have no doubt gathered by now, I dont play DVD's very often! Many thanks for your patience and time if you can give me a solution as this problem is not good for harmony within the home...;)

best wishes

Polly

  • There should be a little pinhole on the tray.

    Put the end of a straightened paperclip in there and push, that should mechanically release the DVD tray.
    A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.
  • thank you both very much for taking the time and trouble to reply to my plea for help. I dont have a square symbol which isnt filled in and the one that is I pressed with no result, but there was a little pin hole which I pressed with a paper clip and hey presto, my dvd has returned - and more importantly so has my husband's tv! All is peace and harmony once more - thanks to you. :beer:

  • I shall use my laptop in future if I want to view anything, so thanks for getting me out of trouble!
  • For future refernce, the 'standard' eject symbol on most dvd players is something like this:

    The pinhole is an emergency release, as was explained previously.
  • well, its really strange but the remote that came with the tv doesnt have that symbol or anything like it ! I shall stick to the laptop in future, its definitely safer...thank you, Polly

    Most likely the eject button is on the TV only.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
