Long discs sticking on the Medion MD40288

I bought the Medion MD40288 off Amazon couple of weeks back. Although it plays just about everything under the sun (including a couple of random MPEGs which I stuck on a disc), it has a habit of sticking on the new "long" DVDs with multiple movies on them. I have several, and have not been able to play any through to the end.

Could this be a firmware problem or something else? The DVDs are fine as they play absolutely sweetly on my laptop`s drive.

Just wondering whether I got stuck with a lemon. Amazon seems to have discontinued the players as well...

Ho!Hum!

For my Cyberhome 528 it was a firmware problem - found at www.cyberhome-help.de

Also advised not to upgrade the firmware as this has other bugs built in. Considering the Cyberhome 400 from WH Smiths if it can play the compressed disks.
