Samsung / 20th Century Fox DVD Glitches?

My current DVD player (as of 9 months now) has been the Samsung DVD-M301. I've been extremely pleased & impressed with it's performance and output quality for being in the $150 (M.S.R.P.) price range.

However, it seems that more often than not (or more often than I'd prefer) 20th Century Fox DVDs seem to skip on this player. I also currently own a Toshiba SD-2008 where I don't encounter these problems at all.

Does anyone know of any kind of Samsung / 20th Century Fox DVD glitches out there? If so, any small amount of light into this extremely frustrating situation would be greatly appreciated. Any possible remedies would also be welcomed (if any).

Thanks.

Nathan

I own a Sensory Science Go-Video DVR-5000 which I found out a while back is made by Samsung. I have also had some problems with certain 20th Century Fox titles. For example I couldn't play Me, Myself, and Irene past the layer change (didn't matter because I didn't like the movie anyway). Also I had problems with Tora, Tora, Tora. Finally I got it to play after turning the player off and on several times. I had problems with The Sand Pebbles, but that could have been a bad disk because I exchanged it and the second one played fine. Those are the only three I've noticed problems with. Other 20th Century Fox titles play fine on my player.
