Burning the fire at both ends

Curious about the burn in process with Bryston components.
I know the amps get a thrashing of a four day torture test.
Does the digital side of things say the BDP's get the same beating.

Hi James,trying to understand, say my BCD-1 I had sent in where she wouldn't read the same discs any more,would always say no disc,Error,no disc ect,at times the number counter would jump  say from 01-01-01-02 ect and then play.
Sent her in as still under warranty,then within a week the same things started happening again and of course sent her in again.
I'm not complaining(sort of)just wondering that shouldn't it be more or less like new or at least work a lot longer than a week,especially if it went thru the four day process again.
She worked flawless for 5yrs so I's just askin.
Actually she should be back home here next week so hopefully all's good to go.
#2,my BDP-2 I have for about a month and have only used the accompanying TD(played once).
I do leave her on 24/7,the other day I looked and for some reason she went into ERROR without any playing(just powered up).
I power her down and disconnected the power cord and reconnected,it's two days and all's good.
Perhaps she needs to be playing more than just the one time(I'm lazy).
For a new digital BDP-2,you wouldn't think after an intense factory burn in that it would read out Error with nothing inserted,just powered up.
Just asking as you would think that all the nasties would sent packing their bags,thoughts,thx.

If it is an intermittent problem it can be difficult to track down so we usually replace the expected problem part.
