Good Points: Excellent picture
Bad Points: Reliability - see text
General comments: Great in almost every respect (music, AV, MP3 etc.) BUT not reliable.
A few times each DVD it freezes momentarily, as if it were changing layer. However, rewind and replay the section and the glitch is gone - except when it is actually a layer change of course.
Could be because mine is multi-region. It's going back to the shop anyway. A friend also had a similar problem and all his replacement units were afflicted, so I'll change for a different model.

2.The DVD apparently ...
