a friend of mine brought me a Karaoke Machine that was somehow damaged in shipping and will no longer read the Burned DVD that was in it when it was shipped. they swear up and down that it used to read that DVD just fine. The drive was making all kinds of horrible noises and wouldn't read any discs when i started working on it. after cleaning the lens and adjusting the spindle it will read regular CDS now but still wont read any burned CDS or DVDS or even regular DVDs. is this the proper place to ask about this?
cause its a video karaoke machine... not strictly "audio equipment"
and the problem is not with the audio or the video, its with the optical drive. ive taken it apart and cleaned the lens, and adjusted the spindle, and played with the pots...still no luck.
the player is sold in the philipines, allegedly made in korea...

im thinking finding a replacement drive might be hard to impossible.
but what about just replacing the laser?
its hard to make out in the pictures but i think this is the marking on the laser assembly:
H6D071F8BRL
HD-870ALSH
but of course the D's could be 0's or O's
the B's could be 8's and vice versa...
6 could be a G
first part doesnt bring up anything.
second part brings up this: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/22518...andl_shipto=US
the laser assembly looks identical except for the first set of numbers. the other part (sled, motors, gears, board) might all be compatible as well, though the control board for the motor that moves the laser is not the same.
would it be possible to swap out this laser assembely?
