Scrambles video and freezes player

If you, like me, are one of the owners of this player who is experiencing playback problems (scrambled video and frozen playback) there is a way to reset the player. This does not solve the problem, but will allow you to unfreeze the device and try...

Excellent sound and sharpest picture, no problems at all.

 

Excellent sound and sharpest picture, no problems at all.

After reading the other reviews of this item, I had to respond. Without arguing with them, I shall mention that I have owned this item for the last 1 year and have had no problem at all - no pictures or frames skipping, freezing or other malfunction....

It breaks soon after....

I had been given this machine in a sealed box brand new. After less than two weeks of use I began to have the same problems the previous reviewer has reported. It began to skip portions, got stuck and froze - then finally refuses to read any disc...

I have owned this model DVD player for a little over a year now, and for the most part I have been quite pleased with its performance. The video output is sharp and detailed, and I have had no problems with digital artifacts crawling onto the screen...

I like this dvd player except it is extremely picky playing dual layer dvd's. This unit will play cd-rw's but not CD-R's

I bought this player in December of 99 and ever since have had no problems with it what so ever. It has been a great player, not only in picture and sound quality but also in price. There aren't many players out there that offer the same quality,...

Product Specifications

Get a great picture and the best surround sound with this full-featured JVC DVD player. The XV-D701BK features a built-in Dolby Digital decoder with a 5.1 channel output for state-of-the-art surround sound with any Dolby Digital ready receiver. Both a fiber optic and a co-axial digital audio output with Dolby Digital & DTS pass-through are provided for easy connection to any system. With high-bit/high-sampling (10-bit/27MHz) video D/A converter picture quality is dramatically improved because of reduced signal loss and aliasing noise. Colors are reproduced with higher purity and finer gradation. Thanks to component video outputs- separate outputs for Cr, Cb, and Y- the viewer enjoys pictures that are free from smear and bleed while all colors are reproduced with depth. Separate filtering of component video signals, delay compensation and noise reduction combine to provide noise-free pictures with crisp edges. For picture quality, you can choose from three positions: Sharp, Soft and Manual. 1-bit operation, JVC VANS noise sharper and Fine Pulse Interface combine to achieve high performance and sound quality. Now refined for the higher sampling frequency of 96kHz, it helps to realize an extra wide 106dB dynamic range. Enjoy 3-dimensional theater sound from just two speakers up front. JVC 3D-Phonic is ready for 5.1-Channel Dolby Digital as well as Dolby Pro Logic. Multi-brand remote with joystick control comes preset with control codes for operating audio/video equipment from other manufacturers. The joystick allows versatility during play. "illumi-Guide" Control gives you step-by-step instructions by illuminating only applicable keys, to let you easily create desired image quality or sound effect. GUI (Graphical User Interface) uses your TV to display operating menus for ease of operation. You can also choose the language you're most comfortable with. The digest function shows the first scenes from nine titles or chapters on the disc on screen in a 3 by 3 grid. Choose the desired titles or chapter by moving the cursor to the appropriate scene. The strobe function shows a series of consecutive stills in the 3 by 3 grid. The Zoom function enlarges the image four times its normal size.
