Review on Toshiba SD 4980 Player HDMI Playback by Travis Chavis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great buy for the money

This DVD player is a great buy for the price. I've had it for about 3 years now and the only problem I can report is that it randomly pauses for about 3-5 seconds throughout the movie, usually about once an hour. Considering this DVD player usually costs under $60, plays DIVX, plays recorded DVDs/CDs, and is a Toshiba brand, that's a great deal! Also, I have HDMI support so I can easily connect it to my HDTV. The picture quality that the DVD player puts out is excellent, as is the sound. I've never had a problem playing a DVD or CD and the fact that all my .AVI/.WMV files play is GREAT! The player also has a title command that shows how much time is left on your disc, how much has elapsed, and what title it's on. I think another thing that Toshiba could improve is the fast forward and rewind commands. When you press FFW or RW, it doesn't respond to the remote very quickly. If you need a DIVX/DVD player and are on a budget under $100, I definitely recommend this player!
