Sound and Vision have a cracking, free-delivery deal on the fantastic new Pioneer BDP-51 Blu-ray player - £325.88. Bargain!

Constant loss of audio, problems with loads of Blu Ray discs. expereinced by myself and others. £325 would of been a cracking price if not for the faults with it.

Erm, not in our experience - and i've been using one daily over the Christmas period with no problems.

Video quality is amazing but I get half way through some films and the sound just goes off. I can't seem to get some films up and running either, last night I put it Hellboy 2 and after waiting ages for BDP-51FD to load the disc it just stopped, not sure how to explain it, it looked like it crashed.

I bought it from Play.com for £349.99, it might be possible that my unit is faulty or needs some new Firmware.

New year, same old issues...

Incidentally, we used Hellboy II as a test disc with no issues - but then I have heard of people having problems with that disc in a range of players. Sigh....
