Uhm, this is a pretty simple answer, but i things for a living and always look for this simplist answers...
Is your DRC on?
Im pretty sure you know what this is but in case you dont....
Dvd';s are pretty dynamic. Whispers sound quiet and explosions rock the house. Dynamic Range Compression was created to make a balanced level of volume throughout the movie by eliminating spikes in volume. It gets everything at approximatly the same volume.
With DRC on with some players, when an explosion happens, it just reduces the total volume on all channels, and voices can get down to a whisper untill the volume peak subsides then the DRC raises the volume. come players are better than other players at this, and can reduce the spikes in volume without lowering the volume of other sounds which gives it a nore balanced feel and it doesent seem like somone is just flipping down the knob.
Might that be the problem?
If so, maybe you oughtta try borrowing a buddys DVD player and watching the same problematic parts in movies...
or is this more of a freak occurrance? not really specific to any point to a movee and more random?
if this seems to just happen out of the blue, then swap out the dvd player still, and give it a shot. if it keeps happening, i got 10 bucks that says your processor is messed up
hope that helps
