I am from Mumbai. I purchased a Philips DVP 3046 DVD Player around a year back, used it for around 1-2 hours on weekends and kept it in dust free environment and always covered it with cloth after the unit cooled down. Now the unit won't play any DVD discs. It plays VCD's and MP3 discs after some delay. It displays "No Disc" whenever a DVD is inserted. This is not my first bad experience with Philips. My earlier VCD/MP3 player was also from Philips and that too stopped working after exactly a year after the warranty expired. I think I did a very big mistake by opting for a reputed brand like PHILIPS. I called the Philips technician and he said that the cost of fixing the DVD player is around Rs.1000 - 1500. I can easily buy a local brand (but a reliable one) DVD player with that amount. I have seen local DVD players work trouble free for years. I think PHILIPS has programmed it products to work only in the warranty period. I have now stacked my PHILIPS DVD player on top of my earlier PHILIPS VCD/MP3 player in my store room. This is my last association with Philips. I WILL NEVER BUY OR RECOMMEND ANY PRODUCT FROM PHILIPS.
