Anybody else having trouble with the volume not working on the DVD player alone or with headset? I have tried to get some satisfaction from the seller due to the volume not working properly. I wrote several reviews about it and now the picture is...

I know exactly what you're talking about and that happens to mine as well from time to time. You probably can't work the volume on the tv either while it's happening too, right? Usually, what I would do is unplug it for the night and the next day when I wanted to watch it, I would plug it back in and the lower right corner glitch would go away. I will say that is my biggest gripe with the tv, but it's just a glitch and unplugging it always worked for me in the past. Hope this helps!

Yes. Mine broke and will not play anything. I would look at another dvd player.

Yes same thing happened to me. I ended up returning my unit. I went to the audio store to see if it happened to other units and it did. I would turn up the volume and the sound would cut out and not come back on unless I power cycled my head unit.

Check your dvd player to see if it has an audio sync/delay feature. I've seen some that do to adjust for the audio/video delay via HDMI. I haven't had any audio sync issues, but I'm also using optical audio to a separate stereo.

Same issue here, but only seems to happen with Blu-ray discs. Never saw anyone else mention this in a review--here or elsewhere (cnet, pc magazine). Keep meaning to contact Sony because hopefully it's a defect that can be fixed. If not, it's a big ding on the quality. FYI, I rested the player's four feet on four thick pieces of padding to quiet the vibrations. Dr. Scholl's shoe inserts work quite well (but shouldn't be needed!).

One more question - with DVD movies it seems like we can only hear the dialog in the center channel speaker...any way to fix this?thanks,-kevin

Hi James your comments were a Very Nice Surprise Thank YOU very much :-)I have also discovered that the reason I noticed the volume was a bit low was because I had the attenuator switch on the back in the wrong position because once I switched I noticed the volume increased which solved the low volume problem.I would post that online for others but I don't know how, sorryRegards, Gordon

Mine was a total piece of junk. No volume control, etc etc etc. - that's all I know. It should have gone in the garbage instead of being sold as a working player.

I am having the same problem (I hadn't noticed the volume level though). Anyone have any ideas?

I've never heard a loud whirring with my unit. The only time the disc makes noise is when it is first loading. If it is a home made DVD, the player makes lots of "searching" noises, but when it finally starts to play, it is very quiet. I'd say your friend has a defective unit.

The remote is decent.. The Dvd player can be opened with the remote,however, the volume control on mine doesn't work at all.

I had the same problem so I bought a set of "table top" (small and inexpensive) speakers with a volume control for 15.00. The jack on the speakers fots perfectly into the tv/dvd player and I can turn it up much more! (You can probably find speakers even cheaper than that..as long as they have the jack. ) Hopes this helps you �

I have the same question, except mine is to be delivered today. Called customer service, but he could only quote the advisory label. He said I check it out and send it back if defective. However, I would like to know what it is, in case it is a defect I will not discover right away. Like the microphone hardware problem mentioned in the reviews. I did notice that the DVD offer to save $10 did not work, but I do not think that would be handled this way.

Thanks,I called to Sony to get my setup mike replaced and while at it, I asked about this. He gave the same explanation. Putting 4.5 in Bluray today. Nice toys !

Mine seems to do the same thing. I called the number on the Instruction booklet, the person I talked to could not help but unsuccessfully tried to reach their tech support. They never called me back. I really like the player- it is just what I was looking for. I will return the unit as I also think it is defective. Cannot decide whether to ask for a replacement, or just get my money back.
