Huh, I've never seen a Rock-Ola that plays them vertically (but I see two on ebay).
Going by the players I've repaired, I'd say the player is bad. Is the player itself able to be swapped into another juke?

Hello all. I have a Fireball CD Rockola jukebox. It has an unusual VERTICAL CD pro player. A short while ago, I started to have trouble playing CDs. I had never had an issue before but I got the usual signs of a bad CD Player, spinning backwards, sometimes spinning really fast, but most times not playing at all. The Fireball has an unusual sled that the player rests in. Anyway, after lens cleaning, examining the CDs etc, I concluded that the player was bad. A seller on ebay had one from a Fireball (VAU1254/11), so I ordered it. He claimed it had a new laser installed. But, I am getting the same results. Every once in a while it WILL play a song or two (usually only form the same disc) but mostly will not play. I even went to Walmart and bought a brand new Steve Miller Band Greatest Hits. I get the same result from the new CD. The CD's that will not play on the Fireball, WILL play on my CD8 Rockola Bubbler. Is it likely that I bought a player that has a bad laser AND that my old player had the same; OR is there possibly some other reason?
