I have never heard of this happening. I would like to know which test setup was used along with the name and model for the BD player and HDTV. This must be fluke. Sounds like there was a defective player, HDMI cable, or perhaps the V663 was defective.

Quote from Pros and Cons section of the review:

"One problem in 1080P display at 24 frames per second on the similar display monitor or the projector is found in Scene-1 in DVD Viewing preset. It locks the first default video found on the HD DVD discs even if you are sending the video in film mode @24fps. The disc menus and the FBI warning signs may be done in high definition format but they are recorded in 30 video frames while the rest of the HD movie is encoded in 24 frames per second. One solution to this problem is to set the Scene-1 preset to DVD Movie Viewing. This will show the picture in 1080P at 24 frames per second if you lock the source also in 1080P @24fps. But again the HDMI handshake between source and display may switch it back to 1080P at 60 Hertz."
