Got the Die Hard Collection last night for ~$15 (so basically I paid $15 for the Die Hard Blu-ray); put it into my newish Pioneer S12UHT drive. After a while it starts corrupting. Not all that uncommon, right?
Only certain discs start artifacting & always in the same spots, but only on this drive, not on my 2012 BDT500 standalone player. What's weird: aside from no commonality with these "faulty" discs, if I rip the disc with MakeMKV,the resulting file has perfect image quality!

TL;DR: I honestly can't work out why my drive glitches video playback on some discs, but rips the same disc perfectly to MKV. I know if I contact the retailer or Pioneer it'll have to be physically RMA'd for what seems a software fault.
