How do you repair or clean a DVD player?

You could also check out www.llamma.com - they've been really great for me to repair electronics. Here's the link that, although specializes in xbox repairs, gives tutorials on DVD cleaning and laser repair, etc. Good luck.

Possible a weak laser not a DIY proposition. If your DVD player is a budget model it may not be worth repairing.

Alternatively if the recordable DVDs are a little old it could be early failure on the part of DVDs themselves. Some of the cheaper ones don't last long. Having said that some of the cheaper ones do.
