Its probably one of the more elaborate menus ive encountered. Maybe the disc being dirty doesnt help things, but I took it back to the video store and they popped it in their PS3 and it ran beautifully smooth... perhaps its a case of the PS3 being more forgiving of a blemish or dirty disc, but whatever the reason is, I am not going to be too happy if it is even slightly likely that ill get a movie home only to find it wont play in my 1400. Admittedly this is the first occurence, but after having 60+ successes this is earth shattering and im now going to worry EVERY time i get a disc, if it will play or not.

FWIW, i do live in constant fear of my 1400 screwing up. every time i put a disc in i wonder 'is it gonna play or not, is it gonna brick the player or what?' it's almost kind of funny.
(not really).same with my tosh hd-30.
not so much with my a2 or onkyo hd805-they seem to be reliable.
so far.
Very MadMax like, mixed with 28 Days Later etc hehe

. Heck, even Michael Jackson's 3D movie in Disneyland was better... -snip-
spin to see what all the hype is about. Maybe he missed something the first and second time he watched it... and was a little bit dissappointed?
