Title: Not reliable in DVD playing
Product review: I bought my SD-4800 here on Amazon based on the high reviews I've seen. I like the remote control and the player works fine with my HDTV, when it works.The problem is that it doesn't always work. Most recently I found that it won't play Gladiator. Instead it just puts up an error message "Bad Disk". This is a real store-bought copy of Gladiator, not a copy or home-burnt DVD. There are no visible scratches on the disk and it plays fine in other DVD players (including a Toshiba combo DVD/TV player I have.)Tech support from Toshiba has been less than helpful. Apparently they don't make firmware updates available any longer.In short, a fine DVD player for many movies. But it won't work with all, including many popular ones.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
