If nothing has obviously gone bang or cooked then I would certainly try another fuse. They do degrade with time and eventually fail during the switchon surge.

If the new fuse blows immediately then you do indeed have a more significant fault, and the player is likely to be BER. It does look as if something has got very hot under the PCB, but the photo may be misleading.
