It's not a problem with the player as such. The Rio logo looked exactly as I expected it too.
The problem is that because the Rio logo is all one shade it highlights the fact that the empeg display has inherant banding. I think my display probably has more banding than most, from the comments on the quality of displays we have seen on the bbs.
The empeg logo does not suffer from this because it does not have any large blocks of a single shade.
I have reverted back to and empeg car...
