I guess it would depend on how many of your collection produce this flaw.

The instance of rot in my collection is very small, about 5 out of ~150, but
a couple degraded discs are recent as well.

I'm no expert, but i believe rotting
is initially started by pressing flaws
or impurities when disc is built.
Trapped air between layers catalyzes
the process over time. It's always
been described to me as colored
specks or line segments that flit
all over image, typically starting
at the start of a side and gradually
spreading further into program material
as rot progresses over time.

I have this model of player, as well
as a 79, and any disc that i suspected as rotting, would reproduce the same
effects on both machines.

That is not to say that there is not something wrong with your player,
i've just personally never heard of
this type of malfunction. But i suppose
if enough of your discs are simultaneously showing up with defects,
it can't be software.

The clincher would be to take a selection of discs and try another player, just to rule out any software
issues.
