Just on the offchance anyone's interested. The latest I have on this is that the audio DAC appears to have all the signals going into it correctly (clocks, data control) but nothing coming out. The clocks have to be quite accurately related or the chip auto-mutes but since they are generated from the same source and appear to be OK (to 6 decimal places) I think it's unlikely to be a problem. So I'm trying to source a replacement WM8728 chip. Mouser have them listed at $US2.50 but estimate that courier charges to NZ will be $US40 !. And they'd be on backorder. Local parts suppliers don't seem to have it listed but I've still got a couple to try. I've located another player of the same type for sale cheap locally - but it appears to have the same problem. (If I can source the chips it might be a fixer-up-er). I've purchased a different type of DVD (dead) on the remote chance it uses the same chip but have yet to collect. Only cost $1 and includes a remote so should be useful for parts anyway. (Or may be fixable). Any other ideas?
