The buttons on the player itself work erratically. Power off/on and disc tray open/close work only when there is no disc. Play does not work at all. Returned one player to RadioShack today, the replacement player has the same problem. Corresponding buttons on remote work fine.

petraman7 is kinda right. The machine has an inherent problem. If you use the HDMI cable to connect it to, presumably any TV (the store tried several) this problem arises when the TV is turned on. Use the left-right-video cable and everything works fine. I'm very surprised I found no mention of this on any other forums! So, if you're really looking forward to the upconverting feature of this inexpensive machine, you've got a trade-off to consider. Use the remote for all the functions, including disc eject or turn off the TV to get the machine's buttons to work.
