My new Oppo DV-981HD locked up on me last night

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

It's only three days old. I watched about 4 movies. Was watching my copy of Jurassic Park III last night and it locked towards the end of the movie. I cleaned the disk and it played ok then.

This is not encouraging. This was my disk and it looked pretty clean to me. I'm a big netflix guy - I'm wondering if the Oppo's have trouble with dirty disks?

Any comments from Oppo owners out there? I bought this for it's upsampling abilities and good PQ. The day I bought it I went to Costco and saw a HD-DVD for the same exact price I paid for this. I hear they have great upsampling as well. Now I'm wondering if I should send the Oppo back...

All comments welcome.

I think that player has no business advertising itself as HD anything. - Duilawyer 17:45:50 05/31/07 (1)
