Faulty DVD

[loopstah]

I've just tried to play a DVD and after it made a bunch of odd noises I had a look at it. There's a bubble of plastic on the clear inner bit that seems to be causing the problem.

Any ideas how I can go about flattening out the bubble? It's on the rear side of the disc.

Can't send it back

Going to try and melt it with a soldering iron, see if that works. It's a bin job anyway so it's worth a go.

EDIT:

AHA! A quick jab with the soldering iron and a nail file to smooth it down and I have a working DVD.



The thread can be closed now.

Who would have thought my dad would actually came up with a good idea for a change.
