Samsung DVD-C601 5-Disc DVD Player

On the plus side... this DVD player moves from disk to disk quickly and quietly, and the video is nice and clean when playing correctly.  Sound is good.  A rented movie played nicely.<br />Now for the negatives... I'm on my second C601, since the first was DOA.  It's a bit inconvenient to have to use the remote for most playing functions (what if it gets lost?).  The major problem I have, however, is that this player SKIPS on a newer DVD that shouldn't have a problem.  I had an RCA DVD player that I was very happy with until the laser broke, and several times a week played my yoga DVD to workout at home with no problem WHATSOEVER.  I've tried twice to play my yoga DVD on this Samsung, and have had a horrendous time with it.  This morning I had to rewind and speed play through skips close to 30 times in a 45 minute regime.  When it's not skipping there is often interference.  Needless to say it wasn't a pleasant yoga session.  I'm putting it back in the box and sending it back this afternoon.  Since there are negligible marks on my yoga DVD, there is no reason why I should be having this problem.
