    Any tech-heads?

    NB: Panic over. It must have been static or something. I pulled the power cable out for 30 seconds, plugged it back in and it's as good as new!

    I've had a Panasonic Blue Ray player DMP-BD81 for well over 10 years now. It's been trouble free all this time but tonight when I tried to run a DVD (I play more DVDs on it than I do Blu Rays) it's started lagging terribly on all functions. Every time I press a button it takes a good 6-7 seconds before it actually performs the action. I've established it's not the batteries in the remote and it's doing it on all the discs I've tried. For what it's worth, once the movie/tv show is playing, it does so without any lag on the playback.

    Anyone else ever experienced anything like this?

    Ah, the old "turn it off and turn it back on again" fix.

    Yup! Never fails, does it? And neither does taking something apart and putting it back together.

    The laser reader may need cleaning.

    I didn’t even know that was something you could do.
