DVD Player Reviews

I bought this DVD Player last month and it would freeze on every movie I'd watch. Sometimes it would stop then start then stop and start again. Other times it just froze solid and I'd have to turn off the power because none of the controls would...

Had trouble with the sound, same as the other person. Went into settings, sound, downmix and chose stereo instead of 5:1. This got the sound working okay.

The main reason to buy a PVR is to record TV shows to watch later. The problem with this unit is it freezes regularly (approx every 2-3 weeks at the most) and the hard drive is wiped of all recordings when it resets. So you cannot keep your recordings....

We're on our second one - it also stopped playing after one month - I think it's because the venting is on the bottom and it overheats easily.

I have been very frustrated getting customer support from Sylvania for this player. (I wanted to use a universal remote to control DVD player) Finally I was told by Sylvania that Sylvania DVD players generally are not compatible with the Universal...

Finding a good DVD player requires some patience and research, but STAY CLEAR of this product!

This is the fourth one of these I've owned, which may sound like I like them alot. That isn't the case, however; this thing plays ANYthing, it even has a USB drive so one needn't transfer everything to DVD just for a quick watch. That being the case,...

i agree that the picture is good -- that's why i bought this machine, which was pushed on me by best buy. but it hardly ever comes on! and when the dvd player does read one of my disks, it suddenly shuts down -- poof! dead as a doornail. and this is...

This unit is defective right out of the box. I bought two: one for myself, and one for my sister. BOTH UNITS CONSISTENTLY OVERHEAT. Both units skip, shut down, pixelate, and reject various DVDs. Stay away from this one.

My LG LRA-516 recorder is a few years old by the time I'm writing this review but I think a review can be helpful to people looking at LG DVD Recorders in general. One thing that should be considered right off the bat is the warranty. They claim 90 ...

This is a very simple DVD recorder. Very simple menus, nothing complex about this machine, just a good basic DVD recorder that your grandmother could use. My first DVD: (without reading a manual) I just plugged the unit in, loaded a DVD+R/W, formatted ...

When LG were building up their market they provided excellent service to their clients, today I don't think they give a S***.

We received this portable dvd player as a gift last Christmas. I have used it 6 times in the past year. It shuts off all of the time while playing a dvd. The sound is still there but no picture. I used it last week and it worked fine. Went to use it...

I wish all these reviews were made prior to my purchase. When it arrived, it looked as if it had been in a war zone, but I kept it as it appeared to work. But after a few plays, I got similar problems to others here. Fortunately, Amazon's shipping back...

I returned this item. I could not get TV reception anywhere. I called Mustek customer service. They suggested I sit near a window or plug it into cable. I told them if it did not work where I want and when I wanted, the unit was usless to me. Dvd...

First, let me say that if it worked as advertised, I'd be happy. Heck, I'd even be happy if it mostly worked as advertised. However, I had a VERY different experience. I bought mine in September 2003. It always had problems playing over a WiFi network...

Don't whatever you do buy a Grundig product - I have had four PVRs and each time they lasted about a year before they started to freeze whilst watching or recording. In fact it happens almost immediately but only gets to the untenable stage after about...

Overall the STRONG SRT 5425 is good HD set top box with the added functionality of USB recording and playback, however as a budget STB you get what you pay for. The menu is quite simple and easy to use but the HD receiver quality is quite poor when...

OK... if you are desperate for a DVD recorder. Quality of recording = poor, even on SP or HQ. Biggest problem, No Freeview, nevermind about Freeview+ or HD. So you will need an external Freeview box sandwiched between the aerial and the DVD recorder...

My children each received this DVD player for Christmas. Neither of them work properly. They will play movies and have sound but no picture. This was of course a huge disappointment for my kids. That's not the worst part though. Both players are under...
