Is it really loud or something easy to live with? _________________________ E = MC2 = ((2M80 + VP180 + 4QS8)/(EP800 + EP500))^(ADA1500 x D2v) Audiobytes! 2M22! 2VP150!

It's as loud as the receiver sounds when it switches inputs etc. which it must be doing or something similar because the display changes also. More of an annoyance really because the movie is interrupted and it is noticeable as other people have seen it happen and immediately inquired about it. _________________________ Goodnight oracle Bob.

My previous Denon 2900 eliminated the pause with some kind of stored memory, or something. _________________________ *********** "Nothin' up my sleeve. . ." --Bullwinkle J. Moose

You could try to copy errr back up the DVDs which will eliminate the layer break to see if that is in fact the problem _________________________ Jason ----------------- TTTHHHPPPPPTTTT! My HT

PopeBobAltarBoy connoisseur Registered: 06/23/07 Posts: 3915 Loc: The Papal Apartments	If it is the layer break causing the problem which seems to be the likeliest reason, I will be asking myself how could I take one step back (or wheel back ) when purchasing a receiver that should easily outperform the one it's replacing. Frustrating I will try your backup suggestion Jason. _________________________ Goodnight oracle Bob. Here's your bedtime glass of warm milk with Viagra and OxyContin.

St_PatGuy axiomite Registered: 03/07/05 Posts: 7273 Loc: Glendale, Arizona	I see it more as a problem with the signal the DVD player is sending to the receiver _________________________ *********** "Nothin' up my sleeve. . ." --Bullwinkle J. Moose

St_PatGuy axiomite Registered: 03/07/05 Posts: 7273 Loc: Glendale, Arizona	Cam, maybe one of your friends can come over with a DVD player to temporarily hook up to your Denon and see if it replicates the problem? _________________________ *********** "Nothin' up my sleeve. . ." --Bullwinkle J.

EFalardeau connoisseur Registered: 08/27/07 Posts: 3247 Loc: Laval, Quebec, Canada	Quite honestly, I think the player is more to blame than the 3808. Experiment is in order, but since the player is likely the cheapest device, then this would be good news! $\:\)$ _________________________ E = MC2 = ((2M80 + VP180 + 4QS8)/(EP800 + EP500))^(ADA1500 x D2v) Audiobytes! 2M22! 2VP150!

jakewash shareholder in the making Registered: 12/26/03 Posts: 10345 Loc: Calgary, Alberta	That is what I am getting at. The player is having problems with the layer break and this interrupts the signal to the receiver long enough for the Denon to change modes. If the back up copy with out layer breaks doesn't have the signal drop out then Cam gets to go DVD player shopping. I had a similar problem as he is describing with a Sony DVD player back in 2003 when I first got into HT. I ended up buying a top of the line Samsung and it has worked great for me. _________________________ Jason ----------------- TTTHHHPPPPPTTTT! My HT

MarkSJohnson shareholder in the making Registered: 09/27/04 Posts: 10182 Loc: 543 miles North of VAST	Originally Posted By: jakewash The player is having problems with the layer break and this interrupts the signal to the receiver long enough for the Denon to change modes. Is it possible to "lock on" the mode of the receiver? _________________________ ::::::: “Yum. I'd love to gnaw on those with my ears." :::::::
