Mine died after less than two years of very little use. One day, the tray just opened and started spinning and does not stop even if you turn it off using the power button!?!

Just purchased the Onkyo DV CP702 to replace my Onkyo CV C-601. The picture quality of the new unit is excellent, resulting primarily from progressive scan circuity. Audio playback of CDs is also improved over my previous model.
There are two problems with this unit based on evaluating it for the past couple of weeks. First, the remove control sensor has a limited vertical and horizontal field. I find myself having to hit remove buttons more than once to get a response back from the DVD player.
The biggest disappointment is in Onkyos inability to play JPEG files. I loaded a CD with .JPEG files, and although the Navigator came up and worked as it should, when it came to looking at an individual picture of starting a slide show, the unit scanned each picture line by line, resulting in it taking over 30-seconds for a complete picture to be displayed. I contacted what Onkyo calls Customer Support. After waiting 21-minutes to be helped, I was told by the Representative of the company "thats the way it works, and theres nothing you or we can do about it".
Since Onkyo is obviously aware of the limitations of this DVD player in presenting .JPEG file ls in a "reasonable" amount of time, I believe it has a responsibility to report this to customers in their product description, so that customers would be able to use this information in making a choice as to spending $165 for this DVD player, that it some respects cannot perform things like playing .JPEG files as good as a $60 JVC or Sony (entry level) unit is capable of doing.
I will be returning this because dissatisfaction of the product and misrepresentation on the part of the company as to its capabilities. Ive been a loyal Onkyo owner for nearly a decade, however, this experience will result in my having to reevaluate my trust and confidence in Onkyo as a viable manufacturer of consumer electronic equipment.
