Last night, the 12 yo DVD erased recorded programmes while scrolling up, looking for something we were going to watch So we watched another recorded programme and when the STOP button was presses that was deleted too. Went to bed expecting to need a new machine but the lady at the repair shop said to take the remote apart.
Apparently, the DVD only responds to its signals and she reckoned a button might be stuck in the down position. So, I operated. It resisted but I persevered only to find that nothing seemed to be wrong.
HA!! You all say. How the Hell would you know anyway you Luddite.
You're right. I put it back together hoping for the best but I installed new batteries.
And guess what?! The damn thing not only worked but ALL the deleted programmes were back
How Astonishment
Thank you shop lady
