I don’t know where to begin. I was disappointed with this product from day one, and now after 6 months its in the landfill. First, the buttons on the remote would have to be pressed 1,2 or 3 times before the device would respond. Second, sometime it would refuse to turn itself on or open up and I’d have to unplug it for a minute before it would work again. But it was the third thing that did it in when while watching a movie a neon green snow storm took over the image and persisted without end. Maybe the thing can be of some good to someone who is mining old electronics for gold.

We have a Samsung 1080p HDTV so this player was a natural fit. The picture is awesome and the sound is great, but we are a really lo-tech family. The part I have found I don’t like is the relationship established between the player and tv. It seems like if you watching tv and look at the dvd player wrong, the tv will switch to dvd. It really doesn’t take much to switch to dvd. Then to watch tv again, it has to break the relationship (not instantly). Maybe I’m just one of those idiots that doesn’t read the owner’s manual!

This is as good of a product as I expected from Samsung. Love the integration with the software on my Series 6 46″ Samsung LCD.A good value.

Well, this DVD player got good reviews, so I was disappointed. Maybe it has all the flashy things for the techies, but I’m not interested in that. I just want a humble DVD player that does its job simply and with little fanfare.
It does perform its most basic job–playing DVDs–flawlessly. But as for other “features,” I have some burning questions. For instance, why in God’s name is there that terrible high pitched “music” when it is cueing up? It hurts my ears! And speaking of cueing up, why does it take so long to cue up in the first place? I keep wondering if something has gone wrong, and then finally the movie appears. And why in God’s name do English subtitles come up every time I turn it off mid-movie and then come back to it? And why doesn’t it hold its place when I’m watching the extras, e.g. the commentary?
Perhaps all of these questions could be answered and the problems solved if I read the manual. I did try reading the manual to solve the problem of it not holding its place when I shut it off mid-extra, and there is something about “bookmarking” written there, but I tried it and was not able to figure it out and make it work.
If I knew these things about this DVD player before I bought it, I would have chosen another one. Be forewarned.
