High all, after trolling these boards for some time, I ended up buying a pioneer dv578A a while ago. Its worked great for ~ a year now, but in the last couple days I noticed the front LED is all messed up.
It looks like all the front lights are light and the display shows what looks like a 1 under the CH and a C at the very end of the display.
It doesnt matter if a disc is in or not --- it does the same thing.
The DVDs still play fine and the remote still works fine, just the lcd display is in a really crooked state.
I tried unplugging it for a couple secs - but nothing seems to work - if its turned on, everything is all light up on the display.
Any suggestions on possible rememdies? Firmware upgrade or anything -- anyone seen this happen before?
I'm really rather ticked at the prospect that this might be broken after 1 year of use. I've had a 30$ cheapo chinese import that has lasted 3 years now. blah.
anyway, any help woudl be greatly appreciated.
