Review on Sony DVP SR200P DVD Player Black by Mark Saric

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good basic no-frills DVR

Easy to install. Because it's small, it doesn't dominate my TV cabinet. In addition, he is quiet. The only claim to the remote control; too many buttons, many of which are for a TV I don't have. There are actually 40 buttons, and since I don't need to address DVD titles by number, these 9 main buttons work well: Power, Eject/Load, Play, Pause, Stop, Next Track, Previous Track, Fast Forward and Faster if necessary return. When Sony realizes that someone is buying a DVD player, that doesn't mean that he or she has thrown out all the electronics in the house and replaced them with new Sony stuff. I don't have a single room in the house where all the electronics are the same brand and I doubt that ever will happen. In any case, if Sony wanted to make the remote controls more of their TV buttons down my throat because I bought a DVD player, my suggestion is to make the DVD player's main buttons bigger and easier to distinguish with unique shapes. Put the latch on the TV buttons. If I have a TV I remove the cover, if not I leave it on and just deal with the DVD buttons. Sony, Toshiba, everyone out there in the electronics manufacturing world, if you're reading this, consider this offer. I'm also a baby boomer for us older people; easier is better.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Power outlet required
