Ok, a few months back my HDMI DVD player stopped working. I replaced it with a Philips one which does everything I need (like Mpeg & DIVX off USB HDD etc).

However one very annoying thing is that the sound over HDMI crackles. Its noticeable enough that its driving my wife nuts. Doesnt do the same over RCA connection.

Ive returned it to DSE and they sent if off to the repair centre. Came back with "No fault found" and I had to hand over $50 for the displeasure.

So the player is still crackling and wife has offically had enough.

Any ideas what I can do? The DSE guys said if it still happens I could bring it back and talk to the manager about it.

Does anyone have any advice before I take it back?

Thanks
