  2. CD/DVD drive says Please insert a disk. (Windows 10)

    this is a very real issue. what a piece of ****.

    here's my set up: Alienware 15 R2 with no internal drives

    just ordered off Newegg two brand new LG iHAS124-14 DVD-+RW drives which are desktop internal drives

    Used a Unitek SATA to USB 3 adapter with 12v support

    Connected both drives and inserted an audio CD. Immediately the CD is spit out. Turned off autoplay it stopped immediately spitting out, but then tried to manually open disc in explorer and it spits out immediately..

    This issue is reported all over the net. Anyway unable to read any CDs or DVDs that I know of as they spit out immediately and furthermore apps such as ExactAudioCopy cannot even tell a disc is in the drive.

  3. Laptop "automatically eject CD's".

    you copy or burn cd's,

    you do not sync them

    if CD/DVD player is spitting them out, the player may be bad or the player may have trouble with that brand of cds it rejects

    there could be numerous reasons

    Windows 10 spits out cd/dvd

    My first thought would be faulty drive, there's bunch of leavers and micro switches inside that wear out.

    It worked fine in 8.1. It just doesn't want work in 10. My computer is less than 2 years old & I never used cds or dvds that often.

  6. Have you tried their Windows Media Player
    Should be in your Apps or you may have to download it from their site.

    On mine I have the above plus Toshiba own one

    Plus Power DVD from Cyberlink

    Any reason you don't use Windows Media Player ?
    Unless you are using a Windows 10 N edition ( which is an European or Korean version ), WMP is included in Windows 10. It does not need to be installed.
    You can find it in All apps > under alphabet W > Windows Media Player.

    Adding : Windows Media Player will play videos/movies but will not play DVDs.
    I am sure you have good reasons why you prefer VLC.

    Windows 10 spits out cd/dvd

    Just out of curiosity.
    Did you download VLC from the Store ?
    If yes, uninstall it and install VLC from its original source:
    Download official VLC media player for Windows - VideoLAN

    I only installed VLC because 10 won't play dvds. I had power dvd when I bought the computer. When the trial ended I uninstalled it. I didn't use VLC in windows 8 because the dvd worked . I also installed & uninstalled vlc from windows store & installed from vlc website. Still won't play cds/dvds. I do use wmp for music & videos.

    I also have VLC installed in my Win 10 and it plays DVDs.
    Wonder why it does not on your computer.
    I can't help you further.
    Sorry.
    Happy New Year.
