The topic was lost, but for everyone who is interested in the ending I thought I would let you all know that I have received a new 800D from the M factory.

The first unit had a bad HDMI board and I tried to get it do what I expected it to do for over 20 hours. The new unit that arrived two days ago, was working within 5 minutes .....

I was disappointed with the quality from M. I guess you have all seen that video of the factory, how M has improved and automated quality control. Very unexpected end result, 0 points.

Anyway I was very happy with my dealer (loan DVD player). And I did not have to wait for 4 weeks to get a new unit. This time it arrived within 4 days from the factory, which means they shipped it the day after I returned the defective unit to the dealer. service 10 points!

And offcourse now that everything is working I am again a very happy M owner. This is an amazing piece of Hifi equipment. "You get what you pay for" is very positively true, again 10 points.
