I was told by the store clerk that manufacturers are gettng away from making anything with a TV tuner in it, except for standalone TV tuners.
I guess the digital broadcasting law will be affecting me after all. My dvd/vcr stopped working tonight, and went to buy another only to find that none of the models they had were equipped with such an archaic device.
Off to the thrift store and buy a few, in case they all start breaking down!
Interesting though, the DVD player that broke had a full blown **DVD-rom** drive in it, not just a tray and motor rig that all the cheap-o and now dead dvd players have had. It seems like a power problem, so if it is something on the motherboard, I'll try installing it into a PC and see how it works. I'm kinda hoping it stays broken, so I get to tinker!
