Advantages: Very neat compact unit
Disadvantages: not easy to set up

...haven't tried transferring my camcorder fims on to VCR or DVD but it looks very simple so I don't foresee any problems. The Toshiba DVR3 can record on most types of DVD including -R, -RW and RAM and can read even more. I would recommend this combination machine. ... Read review

Advantages: Good Upscaling DVD player, HD Titles are now rock bottom price
Disadvantages: Slow to load, clumsy remote

...myself this Christmas to a Toshiba EP-30 player. I had the HD capable tv and decided to see if it was a major difference. I purchased mine from Amazon for about £190 but with vouchers my outlay was less. Part of the attraction was the fact that you were given two dvd's in the box, namely 300 and The Bourne Supremacy. You could then mail in your receipt and receive a further five titles free. This made the deal fairly sweet and there certainly wasn't ...
...was good to see that Toshiba give you the leads to experience HD straight out of the box rather than giving the retailer an upsell opportunity. The first thing I noticed is that access to the film is not as quick as normal DVD. There is a loading time that can seem like an age although it's probably only about 45 seconds. Then it hit me, you think dvd quality is great well HD raises the bar. Watching 300, a film created in the digital realm was ... Read review

Advantages: as good as blu-ray , extreamly cheap , bargins to be had everywhere
Disadvantages: no longer supported format

..., with the announcement that Toshiba is to withdraw from the hd race for the next format it leaves hd-dvd players in a very poor position in the market place , however do not let this put you off , there is already a great library off hd-dvd discs out there and as there is no region coding on the discs ,this means you can order via eBay direct from use for even more titles , of course the likelihood of new movies coming out on this format are very ...
...and the latest firmware via Toshiba brings it right unto date with picture and sound , if your savvy you can get one of these and a collection of discs for a fraction of the price of a blu-ray player and start enjoying high definition discs , the money you save get be put to one side to but a blu-ray / ps3 when they inevitably come down in price later this year ...

Advantages: USB, DivX, multi-region
Disadvantages: Periodically loses multi-region, no USB access from remote

Had this player for over a year now and has been brilliant all round. Used remote hack to make multi-region and changed video system from PAL to NTSC (hold Pause until display on player flashes) to stop judder on playback. Has played everything I've thrown at it. It did lose it's multi region setting recently but used remote hack to re-set factory settings and then Zoran file burnt to CD to access region setting menu and now fine again. One drawback ...
...have to press a button on the DVD player to access the USB stick and this can't be done on the remote. Not a major problem though. Has HDMI out which provides better picture quality. Coaxial out for digital sound. Decodes Dolby 5.1 and DTS. As a bonus, it looks pretty sleek too. ... Read review

Advantages: Great quality
Disadvantages: Not very advanced interface

This DVD player is the one that i have in my lounge and is a great one in my eyes and i think i will have it for years to come. It goes very well with my sony LCD HDready television and was very easy to set up and also very quick. It plays pretty much anything and has great quality and is very easy to use, i.e. the remote is very simple layout but with most features available. Plus this dvd player is also a great buy because it is under £100 and ... Read review
