    Panasonic must be having some serious QA issues. Started the initial set up. Tried to update the firmware, and immediately, I had a rapidly flashing red light indicating that it could not start up. I decided to return the unit, and buy a similarly priced SONY.

      Thank you for the review! When you select to update the firmware, the unit shows the firmware download progress on the TV screen for approx. 6:30 minutes. After the firmware is downloaded on the unit, the unit starts updating the firmware. This process takes about another 6:30 minutes. During this time there is no display on the TV and the unit shows a RED LED blinking rapidly. This is not a malfunction it will take approx. 13 minutes in total to download and update the firmware. After the firmware is updated, the unit displays the Home screen on the TV. If you require further assistance or have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact us directly via Live Chat on our website: https://shop.panasonic.com/pages/contact . -M Panasonic

    I received this product and thought that it was hook-up ready, but it failed to provide and HDMI cord which apparently I have to order separately. Had I known this, I would have ordered the cord. As it is now, I have not used it because I don't have a HDMI cord......Very frustrated as that should have been included in the box.

    This DVD player is now 2 years old. It did a firmware update, and then is dead...well, almost. It just emits fast red flashes but is non functional otherwise. It has a library DVD in it which I can't get out. I guess I'll contact Panasonic.

    Just set this up. Horrible UI looks like it is from 1999. No Panasonic remote control app for my phone. No VUDU connectivity. Regret my purchase. POS to replace a Samsung POS that had its own crappy problems. This is just as bad or worse.
