Yes,Run like hell away from JVC DVD players. I have had them before and the features vs price ratio may sound like a compelling reason to buy one but you WILL be getting your monies worth.... not much! the build is terrible and the unit i had would have a problem reading several of my DVDs.
It was repaired 2x with the same problems croping up after a while again!
The only thing i will consider buying from JVC now are their VCRs... these are great, they just can't make anything else worth a darn!
If you do an A/B comparison of similarly set-up DVD players of JVC vs Sony vs Panasonic vs Toshiba... i will guarantee that you will find the JVC in the very back lagging behind!
I obviously hate JVC! but, i have good reasons for it...

I heard a similar story from a friend who replaced a 1st or 2nd gen JVC with a Sony 7700 and he couldn't believe how much better the Sony was. At times, he had to unplug it and replug it after it had quit responding (reboot?).-- Greg
