Hello Uraxyd and welcome to The World of CD-i.

Look at the back of your player.

You will find this little sticker with numbers. In my case it's 210/40.

Stay safe!

Thank you very much 🙂

I have a 210/20, now I must find a new optical cdm9 type.

But on Aliexpress, I only find cdm 12.4 for cdi 210/40, do you know if this type of optical can work on my 210/20 ?

Thanks !

No, you can't substitute CDM9 with CDM12.x

CDM9 is quite expensive, usually around 100€
Are you sure that it needs to be replaced, what are the symptoms?
Have you done troubleshooting, e.g. as described in this article: https://www.theworldofcdi.com/open-source/hardware-repair/err-on-player-display/

Any update about this issue?

@rosewood is absolutely right, I would say 80% of this issue is easily solved using this method.

@uraxyd please take a look at this other article from our Open-Source Hardware Repair section about the CDM versions.

I am going to move this thread to Open-Source Hardware Repair Forum section, it is the correct place to be.
