mom3981,
I believe a firmware update is available for that.
Go to this link:
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/main/supportMain.do
Type in the model number (no dashes) and you'll see the model appear. Click on that and go to the DVD-VR357 support page.
There you'll see an option for firmware. There's the file, and the instructions on how to update your unit. If this doesn't work, you may have to call 800-SAMSUNG to assist in getting the unit repaired.
