Have a one year old combo unit that is a Panasonic. I have watched maybe 12 DVD's and for some reason, I get the same messages that you have. I contacted PANASONIC by e-mail with questions and have to say that I was greatly discourged with them. They took too long to reply and their reply was to take the unit to a repair shop. What have you found out? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
