Rating: Summary: I just joined the club Review: I just wanted to write a review saying mine died as well.
Rating: Summary: Dead after 13 months Review: I'm very disappointed with the quality of this unit. First, only after only a few months of use, the color tone of the picture would change every 20 minutes or so. It would "jump" into a darker/color richer tone. I never had the time to have this fixed. Now after 13 months the unit stopped playing altogether, displaying the error code "F07". When you search the web you will find this is not an uncommon issue with the Panasonic players, and it requires to be serviced by a professional. It is just not money you want to spend after using it for just one year. A big thumb down and I will not be buying a Panasonic again.
Rating: Summary: Dead after 18 months Review: Other than skipping a bit on DVD-Rs, this was a great player until I got the dreaded H02 Error. I later found out from the web that this is common for Panasonic players. I read that it costs around $80 to fix. Come on! I can get a brand new player for that. And I did!
Now I have a slim little Sony DVPNS725P Progressive-Scan that plays all my DVD-Rs great.Hopefully it will last more than a year and a half.
