i am having a very weird issue with my dvd player. I have a toshiba dvd player hooked up to a kenwood reciever and the 5.1 surround system.
recently i have noticed when playing dvd's (old or new that i am receiving brief (1 second) audio) skips a few times during a film. almost as if someone has hit the mute button for a second. i have a dvd cleaning which i've used with no success. i'm not receiving any video issues when this happens is all just audio. and no, IT'S NOT THE DUAL LAYER THING. i am aware of that on dvd's, this happens three or four times during the film.
the weird thing is that when i rewind the film and replay that part it doesn't skip! but then will do again at a different part.
this is very confusing!! is this a dvd player issue or a possible receiver issue?

David,
Hi, the issue you are having with your toshiba dvd player may be due to a chipset problem! Several models in toshibas line up are guilty of this problem. The problem relates to an audio clock problem inside the player. Most dvd players use a 27mhz audio clock (it's cheapier to build), this leads to jitter, and this jitter effects the d/a convertor inside the player. The best dvd players use a 48khz for audio and 44.1 for video i think. Well anyway i would need your model number to be certain. L8R
