I have noted inconsistencies between episodes within the same season, but all of them are a huge leap in PQ above the DVD set that I bought several years ago.

I have the OS season 1 and season 2, and they both stop randomly on playback. I returned the OS season 1, 3 times with the same result, random stopping could happen on any disc, but not every time. My player is a Samsung BD P1500. I believe this problem is unique to Samsung in that it does not happen on a Sony which I tried.

try moving to a ps3 with wireless internet--it will update your "firmware" automatically and you probably won't have these kinds of problems...

I have a BDP1500 and a Sony S550. The Samsung plays season two without any issues, but the Sony pauses randomly while playing. I don't recall this happening on the season one set. I have not updated firmware on the samsung because it plays without issues, but the sony has the most current firmware.

I have a Sony BDP-S560 with the most recent firmware (v7) and am also experiencing random pauses. I first noticed it last night when I started watching Season 3 and when I went back to look at Seasons 1 and 2, I have the same problem. I don't remember having this problem when I first watched some of the episodes on those disks a couple of months ago, but I only watched a few random episodes, not everything. I have to wonder if the problem was introduced with the most recent firmware update. If I can figure out how to do it I am tempted to revert to v6 of the firmware and see what happens.

This is great stuff.

I have Season 1 on DVD and just popped in BD S2. Love the effects options.
