Tbooe-
I also own a CDP-202. It has the same pattern on the screen. But, when I put in a dvd-a, or dvd, the pattern does go away. That is how I know it isn't a screen defect. If it was, those "finger prints" would still be there. I do agree that they should have done something different. I wish they would simply design a new background sceme. The cool thing about their open software architecture is that if they wanted to, they could.
