Tried it today and its terrible. skips frames all the time. I new it was supposed to be bad but blimey!!

My old Celeron 450 managed smooth DVD playback, whats gone wrong?

Do you think it will be fixed with a patch or something. I wanted to use this as my main DVD player downstairs but I cant now!! :mad:

Dont they test these things before making them.

Sorry for the rant......
 
Just thought that a console with that power would be able to play a DVD. Im not that bothered about super pictures or anything just smooth playback and it cant manage it!!!!

I wanted to just have that and my SKy + box together to be nice and simple.

Just cant believe it really.
 
I just find it bizarre that a console that is supposed to be the best media device on the planet cant manage normal DVD playback. Im not saying that I want amazing picture, hi def or anything like that, just normal credible DVD performance equal to a £50 player.

I mean the CPU is multithreaded and runs at 3.2GHz, come on....they even give you a special DVD remote control (premium).

It amazes me!
