Is anyone else running into this on 752 flights, or am I just a magnet for technical glitches?

I was on flight 1800 (FLL-EWR) yesterday. AVOD didn't work at all on the 752 and there was no effort to restart of which I am aware. I think it was completely broken as they did the safety demonstration without attempting to use the AV system. No announcement about it either, which was a little odd. But it's a relatively short flight and I had my I-pod so I can't say I cared.
