We had a DVD player that would freeze up while watching a movie. No matter if you restarted the movie or not it always freezes up. It didn't matter what movie either. We thought it was the DVD player so we got a new one. Well our new one is doing it too. What the heck?
Are you burning your own movies? Are these every disc? Dosent make since if they are prerecorded. I would say if they do it still they are defective? Read this link. Also test out the player in another location on another TV. Borrow a disc from a friend and see if it happens with there know good disc. http://www.techlore.com/article/10487/ Good Luck
