I have no issues with the OPPO player on my Westinghouse LCD TV,
however my Toshiba P35 laptop has developed vertical "lines" perhaps 1
or 2 pixels wide - originally one at the left 1/8 of the 17" WXVGA
screen, weeks later a second at about 40% from left. This will be the
second time to get the screen replaced for this reason in 2 years. My
previous Toshiba laptop, circa 1993/4, exhibited a similar problem at
about one year of age.
