overheating in DVP S9000es?

i have my 9000 installed on a shelf in my TV stand. it's somewhat closed off. but not entirely. there is at least 2" of space on all sides of the unit. it got pretty hot in there nonetheless...unless it just runs hot normally?

after playing CD's for most of the day yesterday, i put in a DVD and experienced some major video problems, i.e. digital "block" noise, jerky rate rates, etc. i have never seen these problems before, even with the same DVD disc. the player is running in progressive mode hooked up to my wega HD-ready TV. btw, it played CDs fine the whole time.

any ideas?

I noticed my player was very warm while running a DVD, I wlaked in and the picture all of a sudden had serious problems I turned everythin off and thought I tracked it down to a bad/loose cable on the component out. Mine is in an open rack. As with any component that runs warm I would try to keep as much air around it as possible and hope thats solves the problem.
It seems to only run warm in video mode ?!
