Just a short note here. I had a similiar "problem", vp50 gets hot, no fan.. But i read somewhere that the fan stays off if sd definition is used.. My main problem was, that the vp50 handled Pal only in b/w, when i took off the hood i had colour. Did you solve yours?

Sorry for the late respond, but it was solved kinda. I had a local tech guy fix it for me. The fans now stay on all the time if the DVDO has power. I made a picture of how he did it. Maybe it can help you. Btw, why did they not make an off/on switch? They made a great device and then do something stupid like that. Even in standby mode it has constant power usage.

I am tempted to do the same but doing it by myself seems a bit bold. Yes, they don´t have on/off switches, don´t know who had this idea. Maybe because the power supply is on the outside.Btw. mine died after a few years, even though I always pulled the plug from the wall outlet. Got a new one, which wasn´t too easy to find because of the high power consumption.

No, the external power supply died. This seems to be common with those DVDOs. The processor itself is also getting damn hot, thats why robinrobin had those fans custom made. Not a bad idea.

OEM power supplies are available from Astrodyne TDI in New Jersey. They are a US distributor of Chinese power supplies. https://www.astrodynetdi.com/ecatalog/p ... /SPU45-103https://www.astrodynetdi.com/pdf/SPU45.pdfThe DVDO VP50 uses this exact PS. It is rated for 6Vdc at 7A. The one in the picture has a 5 pin DIN but mine came with the exact DC coaxial connection for the VP50. Nice tight fit. You may want to talk to a service rep to make sure on the output connector. They were very helpful and great to deal with. $85 US and like 6 weeks shipping for a single unit. This should solve overheating problems and cheap PS that keep dying. FYI - I bought a generic PS from eBay that claimed to be for the DVDO VP50 for $12. It did not power the unit at all. Hope this helps someone
