overheating in DVP S9000es?


i have my 9000 installed on a shelf in my TV stand. it's somewhat closed off. but not entirely. there is at least 2" of space on all sides of the unit. it got pretty hot in there nonetheless...unless it just runs hot normally?

after playing CD's for most of the day yesterday, i put in a DVD and experienced some major video problems, i.e. digital "block" noise, jerky rate rates, etc. i have never seen these problems before, even with the same DVD disc. the player is running in progressive mode hooked up to my wega HD-ready TV. btw, it played CDs fine the whole time.

any ideas?

Ncarv, I've had this same issue with the frame pausing momentarily, and will also occasionally get some very brief digital artifact about halfway through the movie. My player doesn't run excessively warm, but I look forward to hearing what your Sony dealer tells you.... Otherwise, the picture and sound has been amazing on a Pioneer RPTV with Snell surround system.
