Pioneer DV-354 DVD Player

Summary: Would be a good player except...
Review: After about 1.5 hours of playback, the player will suddenly reset. It will then give you 30 minutes or so more, but will eventually reset again. We took it back and exchanged it for another unit (same model), and the new one has the same problem. We thought maybe it was heat related, but we've now got the player set up in a very open space so that heat really shouldn't be an issue, and the problem still occurs.

I've looked around to see if anyone else has had this issue, but there are very few reviews out there for this model. Has anyone else seen this problem? And if so, does anyone know if Pioneer has put out a fix for it?

Other than the reset issue, this is a perfectly decent player. Picture and sound is good, the remote is easy to use, and the GUI is pretty good.

Summary: It sucks
Review: I had this player for 3-4 mos. when it just started acting funny. That is resetting, turning off and finally the fuse blew. I was going to bring it to a shop, but I just ending up throwing it in the trash. I think Pioneer should compensate anyone who bought this dvd player. Since it seems, I'm not the only one that had problems with this dvd player

Summary: Same problem here...
Review: I have one too, with the same problem...
It resets randomly, but not often. About 1 time in 3 DVDs played.
If somebody can help, please do.

Summary: Until this player is fixed, STAY AWAY!
Review: This player looks good, plays well, an is in general well designed, but has one major problem. About 75 minutes through a movie the player will either reset, or pause without any means to restart other than start the movie over. This problem is with my player and my friends player (as well as the other reviews). It has been in the shop twice for months with no improvements. I have heard that it may be a software problem, but I see no recall from Pioneer. For now, stay away!
