LG LDA-530 skips

[whargoul]

So, I picked up one of these the other day. It seems pretty good, except it skips. And not with a burned disc either - the first movie I played was brand new, right out of the plastic wrapping. The movie skips forward in the same two spots everytime, so I thought it was a problem with the DVD itself. But, I just watched another movie that I rented and it does the same thing. It doesn't stall, or grind, just jumps forward about 10-15 minutes like nothing happened.

Anyone else had this problem? Should I take it back and exchange it?

Well, if it did it a 3rd time, that's what I'd be considering.

welcome to the forum

i would take it back asap (without hesitation).
also, note if the box it came in is/was damaged ?
