DVD Movie on Samsung BD-P2550 "pauses"

[Dynamo of Eternia]

I've had a lot of DVD playback issues with my Samsung BD-P1200.

In some cases, I will get brief little split-second pauses in the picture. It almost looks like a layer change, only the audio keeps going, and after the pause, the picture then resumes where it should be. This can happen several times throughout a movie.

Then there are times where in the middle of a movie, things just get all glitchy and freeze up entirely. Sometimes this even happens with a brand new DVD that I just bought and opened up (I still get DVDs from time to time for TV series and even the occasional movie that isn't on Blu-Ray), so it's not like the disc even had time to get dirty at all.

And I won't even go into some of the BD playback issues with this player.


Most of the time, I just end up putting the disc in my PS3, and it plays back just fine.
