Possible solution for "freezing" problems with bluray players

[Jase Fox]

As you are well aware some bluray players tend to freeze during playback! Mine inc & theres alot of threads on here from frustrated people who have this problem from there players. Some say a firmware upgrade may cure the problem? But id spoken to alot of people at my local hifi store & on here that say it doesnt make any difference at all, ive had my Pioneer LX70a for 5mths now & for the 1st month it seemed fine but then the freezing issue reared its ugly head, however this problem is in the troubleshooting guide of the manual to my player & it tells you to unplug it at the mains & plug back in again, reboot it!! Anyway so what i thought id do is everytime im about to watch a movie i decided id unplug it at the mains & plug it back in again then start my player as normal.... well up to now after watching loads of blus & standard dvds i can say that it seems to be working!!! It made sense to do this afterall the freezing problem is the same as a satellite box crashing so why not reboot beforehand? So id strongly recommend to any1 with this problem to try it, to some it maybe a pain to have to keep unplugging etc but at least itd be better than having to do it halfway through your movie.
