You win! Or lose, in your case... Were you not using a surge protector, or it failed you? That really sucks. On the bright side, great excuse to buy a new, better TV!
Did your waitlist come through, too, or did you buy it elsewhere? Mine should arrive soon. It shipped on Monday...
Size matters not!
Tried 3 different BD's and one game. It doesn't even spin when a disc is put in. I'll try it again later today, just to make sure keeping it turned off for a bit doesn't magically resolve it. But I highly doubt it will... The sucky part is, my separate 3D BD player, for whatever reason, will not route the video properly through my new receiver (even though it is 3D compatible). I think it is because of the 3D converter box which the TV needs. So I am forced to plug it directly into my TV, and use optical audio. Thus, the main reason for me getting a new receiver (to get HD audio) is completely ruined. If my PS3 worked, I could use that for all non-3D BD's. And yes, I know the PS3 can play 3D, but it isn't compatible with my TV's 3D type, so would also need to go through the converter box, thus I would have the exact same issue. Got all that? Ugh.
**** me up the ass.
