A bargain to be had.

Advantages: All-in-one, Popular make. Good price
Disadvantages: confusing remote control!

I purchased my unit from Sky.buy for £110 so i was already happy with the all-in-one combi before i even took it out of the box. It is a standard 'Region-2' dvd player althgouh, after much searching, i managed to find a disk which unlocks it to 'Multi-region' and is RCE compatible. In general this is a superb machine, the picture quality is above-par, the design is fantastic and there are more than enough choices for connecting htis unit to your ...
...I must confess that it took me over half an hour to tune the VCD into the TV (maybe i'm now too old for new technology!) but once it was set it did the job. The remote control is cumbersome and i tend not to avoid using it. You can re-program the remote to work on your tv so avoiding loads of controllers on the arm of the sofa! Copying DVD-to-Vidoe is very straightforward although this will only let you copy 'un-copyrighted' material. If it is your ...

Sturdy player, if a little dated.

Advantages: Bargain basement price, reliable all round performance, mpg support
Disadvantages: Only supports region 2, outdated model

Being a bit of an X-Files nut I bought this DVD player two years ago so that I could get the series boxsets that were coming out on DVD. I had been put off buying a DVD player for a while as I wasn't prepared to pay the prices that the top of the range models were going for but I saw this model on the high street for £70 and I decided to take a chance on it. Obviously two years is a long time in the technology world and this model wasn't that new ...
...the range picture quality and sound with all the bells and whistles of a new player then this isn't for you. However if you are on a budget and want a player with decent sound and picture quality then I would recommend this model. It also has a compact design which makes it a good choice if space is at a premium in your living room Over the last two years my DVD collection has expanded and my player has seen some heavy use. In this time it has proved ...

Pros and Cons of the XV-E100

Advantages: Sound quality is awesome! Spacious and stylish design.
Disadvantages: Doesn't play MP3s.

I own my very own JVC XV-E100 and love it. The sound quality and design is awesome. Picture quality of the DVD is also great. Tip: Sound does sound best above a hardwood floor. The only draw back is that the player doesn't play MP3s. If I would have to buy another DVD player, it would have to play MP3s. Sound sound is very theatrical and realistic. The best DVD I seen yet playing on this system is XXX. The soundtrack and fast paced action make s ...

Excellent quality and even better value for money

Advantages: Multi-Regional straight from the box
Disadvantages: None whatsoever

I've owned this DVD player for about 3 years now. After considering several other makes, I decided to buy this and I don't regret that decision one bit. The main thing for me, because I moved to Australia only a couple of months before I bought it, was would it play my English DVDs, given that Australia is a different region DVD to England. No worries here, it plays them with no problem, no having to get special discs to load up the information it ...
...them the minute it came out of the box. Extremely easy to install - just plug it in and away you go. The picture is clear and it automatically changes region according what DVD I put in it, I don't need to do a thing on that score. In fact, I half think that if I put a dinner plate in the tray it'd play that too! I paid the equvalent of about £40-£45 for it, so it was a real bargain and no mistake. It's so easy to operate it's almost unbelievable ...

JVC PLAYER

Advantages: Beginners - kindly through clearness, stylish design, picture - and Tonqualität
Disadvantages: ---------------

I dear cinema-films, and such, that pleased me especially well, would also like to have I at home then. Therefore, I have a quite big collection at videos. Through the miracles of the new technology impresses I wanted also to afford a DVD-Gerät approximately one month ago finally then. Therefore, I set out, with the solid resolution, no longer than 150 Euro, to spend, as also, with my constantly empties account *sfz *. Nevertheless, I wanted ...
...DVD-Laie an as operator-friendly as possible appliance. I could be discussed and finally decided me for the DVD-Player " XV-N33SL " of JVC, that lay in the limit sedate by me in price and had even some addition-functions, that I had not at all expected. But to it later more. What does one get for the money? Besides the appliance itself still the long-distance-service including batteries and an audio-video-cable with which I could nothing starting, ...
