It may be that the lense has cought up some dusts!
try to use a dvd cleaner, if this does not cure the problem, then it might tell that your drive's lense is failing!
time for a change!

Actually, this is more of a model/rom ver. problem. I have 3 gcc-h23n drives doing the same thing, but when I try LG dvd driver model gcc-4522b rom ver. 1.02 it works just fine. I'm hoping to find a firmware upgrade for the GCC-H23N and hope this will fix the problem.
