I have a 7-month old CH-DVD 300S that has thrown the drive belt. I've checked a couple local electronics supply dealers to no avail. Cyberhome will only repair for free within the first 90 days of warranty; after that, the labor is on me. They only ship parts to "authorized service centers."

Does anybody know where I can get a replacement belt? I haven't been able to find any parts lists for this unit on-line.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

As far as I am concerned that brand is JUNK. The reason being that it is already well documented that most of these players have a poorly designed Power supply from the git-go. There are caps in the secondary circuit of the SMPS that are a ticking time bomb. One will explode and I am surprised they haven't started a fire yet.
My advice is to go find another CHEAP player as this is the epitomy of CHEAP to begin with.
If you still insist that you need a belt I have 3 of these now that I could scavenge for parts all of which have blown caps.
