Nice player for the price September 19, 2008

I've owned this player for about 4 months. I am using it with a Samsung 1080p DLP TV. This player does a very good job of upscaling dvd's. When the DVD is encoded well (good bitrate, anamorphic 16:9), the results are outstanding. Upscaling an older DVD with a poor transfer will show the limitations of the DVD (blocky, poor shadow detail). When you watch animated movies (Like Pixar's Cars) the upscaling results are *very* impressive.

i bought this item to go with my samsung 37" 550 series hd flat panel tv. after i bought it i thought that maybe i should read the reviews! that's when i became concerned. br /areas of concern were audible noise and losing signal. thankfully i don't have these problems withg this unit. when i first hooked it up i attached the hmni cable in the "hmni/dvi" socket. i got no signal. then i plugged the cable into a dedicated hmni socket and have had no problem since. br /i must say that i'm amazed with the picture quality with this dvd/tv combo. my favorite movie of all time was made in 1966( the blue max) and i have it on dvd. when i played it on this dvd/tv combo the picture looked equal to when this movie was released in the theaters all those years ago. on my computer and my old tv the dvd looked very dark. now i'm seeing many shades of colore that i forgot were in the movie. i'm seeing stained glass windows in the background of a room and seeing the colors that i've not seen before. i just can't say how impressed i am with this dvd player and also the tv. br /forget about blu-ray. it's not necessary!
A great little wonder for the conventional dvd blues September 13, 2008

This neat little machine take ho-hum dvd and and converts it wonderfully into something that can be watched on an HD. I'm using a 42" Samsung 720p plasma and it works nicely with each other. I suggest using HDMI so you don't waste any of the conversion. Format compatibility was important to me so divx users can buy this. I couldn't compare this brand vs. that but this one works. It's isnt Bluray but it removes the pain of watching a standard dvd on an HD set at a resonable price.
It does work! September 8, 2008

I was surprised on the way this DVD player improved the quality of the picture. I can truly compare the quality to the blu-ray quality. The same DVDs looked so much different. i don't remember being that excited about a piece of electronics for a long time. This is the best way to hang on there till the prices on blu-ray players drop to the point of being reasonable ( though i would pay the today's price on them again). br /Since i have the player for less than a week, i can't tell anything about reliability, but i'd better give it 5 stars now and decrease the number is something ugly happens. br /Another feature i loved - it turns out together with TV. This is very important since quite a few ( around 5 ) DVD players died on us because we forget to turn them off and this is great to find that when you put the TV on timer, the player will turn off as well. This is pretty much the reason i'm getting the 2nd one though i have an XBox to play DVDs on. br / br /
