Panny BD30 issues

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

I purchased my Panasonic BD30 back in December. It is connected to my Mitsubishi 65833 DLP via HDMI 1.3 cables (monoprice.com). I do not have a surround processor or HT audio system yet so all audio is delivered through the television.

The Panny performs flawlessly with every Blu-Ray disc so far. We run through a couple movies per week thanks to Netflix. My issue is that this player sucks with regular DVDs. It does a fine job up-sampling the image and all that, however the unit starts to sputter, stall, and then stop completely during playback after a few minutes. This happens with every standard DVD tested.

Have other BD30 owners experienced this with DVDs?

Will a firmware update solve the issue?
