1-2 minute loading typical for BD35
Hi,
I'm new to this forum i have recently just bought a yamaha Rx-v565 receiver and panasonic Dmp-Bd35 Blu-ray and also Th-50pz80a plasma Tv. I'm having trouble with my receiver it takes about 2 minutes to start to play everything but once it starts everything is fine the Bd play's right through and i have the latest firmware up to date and i'm in australia.
Is this a Handshake and can it be easy fixed.

Monnie,
It may not be a receiver or handshake issue, but rather an inherent limitation of the BD35. I do not own BD35, but found the following while researching a future BR player purchase. According to CNET reviews the BD35 has a loading speed comparable to its replacement model, BD60, and both can take nearly 2 minutes to load.
From CNET's DMP-BD60 review:
"We also tested operational speed, which was
comparable to last year's DMP-BD35. However, we had it set up with the BD-P3600, and the DMP-BD60 seemed sluggish comparatively. The DMP-BD60 isn't necessarily slow--
and if you don't mind waiting a minute or two before your movie starts, you won't care--but apparently Panasonic didn't make the same speed improvements that Samsung did with its new players. The DMP-BD60 loaded "Mission Impossible III" in 20 seconds with the unit powered on and 24 seconds with it powered off (with quick start mode active). "Pirates of the Caribbean" took
1 minute and 53 seconds, while the same movie loaded about 35 seconds faster on the BD-P3600. "Spiderman 3" loaded in a
minute and 27 seconds, while the BD-P3600 loaded it in about a minute flat."
