Audio discs but no Video discs
I have an RCA Model RC5240P DVD player.
What would cause it NOT to play any VIDEO discs (the player displays "Load" then "No Disc")?
The player plays AUDIO discs fine.

Two different lasers in the player. One reads CDs the other reads DVDs. Sounds like the DVD laser has failed.

The Audio discs are Compact Disc digital audio discs
The Video discs are DVD video discs
Where can I buy a DVD laser assembly for my DVD player?

'E's not playin'! 'E's passed on! This player is no more! It has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! This is an ex-player!!
Seriously, for a DVD player from 2001... It's time to let it go. As cultshock said, it's cheaper and easier to just replace it.
