This happened to my best friend. He returned the machine to BB, they gave him a new one, and he hasn't had a problem since. Some are just funky right out of the box.

I have had a rare time or two when my machine freezes on a disk. I unplug it, and plug it back in, and it works fine, picking right up where the disk froze and continues as if nothing went wrong.

As for the slow startup, that appears to be normal. The machine is slow and methodical. You can't be in too big of a hurry. I usually turn it on, do something else, return and open the drawer and insert the disk. It's got a lot more to process than a regular DVD player. Patience is a virtue with these players.
