Keeps Breaking Down!

I dislike the fact that it has broken down twice now. Wouldn't you?

Easy to use - when it is working

Stopped reading disc after 9 months. I sent it in for warranty repair and I've used it less than 10 times since getting it back and it is now doing the same thing again! I'm very disappointed. I bought this based on Consumer Reports recommendation

Better than all others

After going through a Toshiba and two Phillips DVD players I decided to try the Pioneer upscaling DVD player with my 32" Sharp Aquos 720p TV. The picture quality is fantastic, and the player has been working without a hitch for the past several months....

Quick Review

Nice DivX player

First, you should know that the USUAL price for this unit is approximately one hundred USD. However, it can be found for about eighty USD during sales or online. I've tried out several different 1080p upconverting dvd/divx players - and this one is...

Love this DVD player

I purchased the DV-400S in a military exchange overseas. One of the main reasons I purchased it was the USB interface. I download Divx shows and wanted the ability to watch them on my big screen as opposed to just my computer. And I must say that this...

Pioneer DV-400V Upconverting DVD Player - Up To 1080p over HDMI, DivX and USB

After trying out the Philips DVP5982 and 5960, I got the Pioneer DV-400V. The Philips was less expensive, but it has usability shortcomings and some DivX files were stuttering on it. The Pioneer is not a silver bullet, but it is much better in some ...

Excellent build quality, features, USB, up to 1080p over HDMI, DivX, MP3/WMA, performance

Not the cheapest, but worth every cent
