Re: Curious...what is this blotching I see in all DVDs?...

I have only ever seen this on one DVD here, so I can definitely say it was the DVD and not my system. If you see it on lots/all DVD's, then it's something in your system. Not to say the DVD's are perfect, but that your gear should be able to handle them. If you want to determine which component, probably easiest to mark the times, then take a few DVD's to the place where you got the DVDP. Try it with an ES hooked up to a Sony TV, as I don't get these artifacts (except that one case) on a newish Sony TV, so that would point to your TV if the artifacts disappear. I asked elsewhere about this issue and it was suggested it was caused by some processing in the TV, so you could try fiddling with which processing mode you're using, if you have a choice.

FWIW, the one DVD was Ghost World and the random moving blotches were green, very annoying.
