Pioneer DV-343 DVD Player
2 lemons in a row
Back around Christmas of 2001 we found this unit for sale on base (Military) ... so we bought 2 of them for the house.  The first one started having all kinds of track search problems on the DVD side of things and is waiting for me to drive it to the nearest Pioneer service center.  Now I just got back from a vacation and powered up the 2nd unit to watch some DVDs I bought ... NO DICE.  It won't play anything.  It recognizes DVDs as what they are, but fails on finding the menu.  It sees VideoCDs as regular CDs, but won't play them.  It sees music CDs for what they are, but won't play them either.   2 in a row.  Needless to say, my family will not be buying anymore Pioneer home equipment.  Must be under a different quality control division than their car stereo equipment I guess.
