HT-J4500 home cinema, cycling on and off repeatedly.

Although I've had it a good few years, never having a problem with it, my home cinema system is throwing a fit. It seemed to start when the blu ray/ dvd drawer wouldn't fully extend. I gently pulled it and inserted the disc and it seemed to work okay. The next day, when I switched it on, it now cycles through "LOAD", "No DISC" repeatedly, even when trying to use "D in", "AUX" or any other setting. I've disconected the drive from the rest of the unit, no difference. I've reset the unit whilst it was in stand by mode, nothing. It's not dirty inside, all very clean looking. Anyone know what's going on... Please help.

I've looked over the net all to no avail.

Hi, is his post recent(as in Thursday this week)? I came home Thursday evening to our box sounding like it was checking the DVD but not doing anything else- no sound on any function and even when removed the DVD it continues. Unplugged it for several hours and it still does it.

Do you know why this is or if there is a solution please? Ours is just over 4 years old and has worked perfectly until Thursday! 

Thank you

Same here. I'm in South Africa and mine bombed at more or less the same time.

Looks bad. Let's see if Samsung will solve this one.

Won't make any difference, my machine had that update, other than that the boot cycle is too fast to allow the USB to be read.

What I am worried about is plugged in players in homes that have no people in for a while, that cycle in a power On/Off loop until something breaks down and fire starts. You may have noticed that the player's mechanism is looping too.
