PIONEER LX70a BLURAY FREEZE PROBLEM

[Jase Fox]

I own the above player & whats happening is is that every so often the player freezes whilst im watching movies, the buttons freeze etc u cant operate the front panel of the player even, it does say about the problem in the manual of the player & it advises pulling the plug at the mains to reboot just like you do a satellite box, i find it strange that a bluray player wud crash like this, has anybody else had any sort of problem like this? or does anybody know as to why a player wud crash?
