Got a spare parts hm-dh30000u some months ago for free To be honnest it's in decent shape so I decided to investigate what does work! it powers up ok! The front panel display shows normal info. Playback , rewinding etc.., it all works. Digital sound is ok! Toslink output works! The Problem! It doesn't output any video! not even the setup menu is displayed! Not trough the yellow composite output! used a 480i regular (us ntsc) vhs tape No luck on s-video either No component output using Dtheater tapes! I can't even display the menu for setting up the player. This isn't normal....? some component may have failed...? could it be a bad cap or something like that? it is strange it doesn't even output the menu settings IMHO Any advice is appreciated ![Thumbup :thumbup:](./images/smilies/icon_thumbup.gif)

I guess it must be something on the video output board. A friend of mine is an electronics technician. I'm curious if he is up to the challenge... i hope a few new caps can do the trick.

No luck in repairing the hm-dh30000U spare unit The main videoboard is fried ![Surprised :o](./images/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif) Not a tragedy since I got the unit for spare parts if needed one day... If anyone would have a player for sale that I can use as a donor.... open to offers... ![Thumbup :thumbup:](./images/smilies/icon_thumbup.gif)

ace2184 wrote: I may be in the same boat. My player showed up via FedEx today. I set everything up, hooked up the appropriate component cables. It powers up fine, the display lights up and the counter works. Problem is no picture coming through. I tried composite and component, same issue each time. It gives me error code 201 with the message "wait a minute, calibrating". I gave it about 10 minutes but still no resolve. Now I'm wondering if I'm SOL or if I should get ahold of the original seller. That's ![Thumbdown :thumbdown:](./images/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif) to hear. Never had any error codes here with these vcr's. knock on wood Did the seller claim it was a working unit? Maybe you can get a refund? the same thing happened with a player I got once. Got it refunded and the best part is I got to keep the player for spare parts. Seller was most helpful getting the refund. "Keep it anyway" he told me ![Thumbup :thumbup:](./images/smilies/icon_thumbup.gif) Who can complain. I was in need of a power supply for a dh30000u I got trough ebay some days ago. The spare machine came in handy as a donor now.

Did you check te menu settings? I think there is a setting somewhere to set the output resolution. I'm not at home now so not possible to check this with my player. Good luck

Did you get it working playing dtheater tapes? Make sure the output setting isn't set to downconvert all to 480i ! Set it to no conversion or 720-1080i upconversion. This way you should be able to play Dtheater tapes. If not I'm ![Thinking :think:](./images/smilies/icon_think.gif) faulty? I sure hope not? I received my faulty hm-dh30000u from ebay US just today. Display wasn't working and it shut down almost immediatly. threw in the PS from the player I got a while back ago for spare parts. Up and running now works like a charm it's in almost mint condition so that is also a big+ I'm using the hm-dh5u as a main player since it supports dts. keeping both 30000u players as backup machines. Hope you get it working ![Thumbup :thumbup:](./images/smilies/icon_thumbup.gif)

I suppose it's to be expected dealing with older electronics. I'll have to be more specific and clarify when looking for the next player. Offhand, I know the differences in the models, thanks to substance, are there models more prone to failure/error and are there models known for being more reliable?

I use the HM-DH5u on a regular basis. I read good things about these. I'm sure the 40000 is a good alternative. They are brothers you know.... The first hm-dh30000u was "dreaded" on some forums with the PS board to blame in most cases. I suspect using a 30000u on an everyday basis would'nt be longlived. I use my 30000u players from time to time to keep them spinning. never had on failing unit myself ![Thumbup :thumbup:](./images/smilies/icon_thumbup.gif) knock on wood I would love a marantz MV-8300 (clone) since it's black finished but they are rare to come by I learned.

ace2184 wrote: Thankfully I'm not in a hurry or anything. I'll just keep an eye for a decent condition vcr. Out of curiosity ... How much did you pay for the faulty unit? I see some dh30000u machines on ebay for a reasonable price from time to time. I got to keep my first faulty machine for free so it made a great spare parts machine. I was able to repair my recently purchased machine that way. It's great to have some spare parts aeound for these decks.

Slightly embarrassing, but after shipping the 3000U ran me a little over $250. I got carried away during the auction ![Angel :angel:](./images/smilies/icon_angel.gif) There's a 4000U on eBay that someone has up. This one actually has pictures of it playing a D-Theater tape, which is promising.
