    I have a dvd player that lately has begun to skip periodically (this happens on several different discs). Is there any product on th e market that cleans a dvd (much in the same way that you have vcr tape cleaners)?

    Cheers

    Any decent cd cleaner will do the trick for the lens.

    I have the same problem, my DVD player is fine with DVD's but is getting an annoying habit of skipping on audio cd's. I have cleaned it many times, but am I wrong in thinking that there is more than one thing to clean in a cd player?

    there may be a different laser for cd and dvdif that is the case you probs have to get a cleaner for each one
