Mixed feelings: DVD player and recorder

I agree with most of the comments above. not automatically switch to the next disc. You would think that a 5 disc changer would play the entire disc, skip to the next disc number and play that too. It's not like this. You cannot randomly play 5 music CDs. Error in the user manual. I found out about this by calling 800 and explaining that the screen wasn't showing what the instructions were supposed to show. I like two things about this player: picture and sound. I hate the fact that in some…

Pros
  • Dual-mode CD-R/CD-RW optical pickup, built-in MP3 and WMA decoders
Cons

unusable as a progressive scan DVD player

I do have an HDTV capable TV (one of the Sony 1080i models) and can comment on the video quality of this player. My old Pioneer progressive scan player broke, this one was cheap and I think it will probably be a good choice. My TV accepts 480p signals and automatically converts 480p signals with anamorphic compression. My biggest criticism of this player is that it doesn't properly output an anamorphically compressed 480p signal. What is anamorphic compression anyway? As you may have noticed…

Pros
  • compatible with Kodak Picture CD and standard JPEG CDs
Cons
  • slightly torn

Great DVD player for people on a budget.

Good. word of warning. I'm not a techie or audio/video expert. I can't define "progressive scan" or anything like that. I'm just a guy who had to replace the first DVD player (KLH Audio Single Disc Player) with a better brand. I went with the 5 disc model if I ever get my hands on a DVD movie like the extended version of The Lord of the Rings or the Steven Spielberg Film Festival or can listen to music for several hours without switching discs need or DVDs. In fact, what I was most concerned…

Pros
  • The mailbox remover EZ-View allows you to display images in full screen mode on 4:3 TVs.
Cons
  • Weight
