For the 5 or so years I've had this player it's been a real trooper. It's been easy to setup and use. The only "disc error" issues have arisen from burned discs that might have been overly compressed, or with a codec that is too new for it. However, among the virtues I've found with this device, is the wonderful quality of audio I get using the optical out with my component stereo system. The only knock against it: right near the beginning of playing almost any DVD, like a record, it skips one second of audio and then continues with no problem the rest of the way. I never understood this, but have lived easily with it.br /Overall, this DVD player has served me well, and I would recommend it to most folks. Of course, with many things headed toward HD, this unit is pretty well obsolete. However, if you are currently happy not needing to see every pore on a person, instead opting for an engaging story, this unit is simple and perfect.

Solving the Disc Error Problem. - daniewa - California
I have "fixed" several of these units.br /The problem is the exceptionally poor quality rubber shock mounts in the rear of the Laser/drive motor assembly.br /The shocks get "mushy and the rear drops down and the DVD won't spin. The fix is a 'paper clip' to hold the rear of the assy up.
