709 Player keeps skipping.....

--oZ-- (Harmless) posted this on Sunday, 30th April 2000, 23:24

I have posted before about my 709 and the hack etc. It is at Richers at the mo being upgraded to firmware 3.28. I have a loan machine (another 709 unknown firmware) at the mo and have been renting out DVD`s from Blockbuster. I ALWAYS get discs I cannot play due to dirt/grease. The 709 seems really susceptible to this. So my question is are other DVD Players able to read a disc if it is dirty better than others?
I think the 709 have a lot of problems with the layer change, and poor disc quality.

btw can you believe it is Blockbusters policy NOT to clean the discs before you rent them, perhaps as online journo`s you lot could pester them into changing their minds.
