Customer Review:
Nice HD-DVD Player
This is a nice HD DVD player that outputs 1080P. I have watched both DVD and HD dvd with this player and the video quality is amazing. HD-DVD was consumer friendly with a relatively low price to get High Definition video. HD-DVD is going away, so there will not be new movies in HD-DVD format which is ashame, but you can still play regular DVD on this player and it will scale the DVD to 1080P. This player does not play BlueRay discs. The movie industry has picked BlueRay to be the standard HD disc format.

Customer Review:
Toshiba A35 :)
Fine equipment! When will Blue Ray catch up? Next year maybe, doubtful; but for sure – more money for both equipment and media! The A-35 used side by side with my son’s Play Station 3 with Blue Ray matching Harry Potter media the A35 provides a superior picture and audio signal on our Sony (oops) 60″ HD TV & through our 7.1 Onkyo/Klipsch audio system. What else can be said other than “what a sad state of affairs!!!” Thanks a lot Warner Brothers. How about allowing the consumer to make the decision of which technology we want!

Bring your audio and video to life with an excellent HDMI DVD player for your TV.

Customer Review: Interesting feature set, but terrible menus and abysmal warranty service. Bought this from Amazon for the upconversion and the front panel USB port media player. 70 days after purchase, it has started to fail, but I’ll try to be fair: The Good: -Excellent video quality in 1080p upconversion (to my LG LCD) and component, to my AV reciever -Neat feature: USB port in front will play many (not all) media file formats from my cheapie USB drives -Reasonably well packaged when shipped from Amazon -Codes available on virtually all universal remotes in my house worked great on the first or second try -Optical audio sounds great The Bad: -Completely non-intuitive menu set. I’ve seen better menus on $15 generic digital cameras. Possibly the worst I have ever seen.

I WAS able to get advanced features configured, but it took an hour and was not described at all in the manual. -Coaxial digital audio and Optical digital audio do not coexist well -Poorly vented enclosure…too thin, feet too low to allow airflow underneath…see below. -Failed after 70 days of ownership (front panel is blank, overheats mid-playback despite being all by itself on an open shelf) -ABYSMAL warranty support from Philips.

READ CAREFULLY: THE WARRANTY IS ONLY 90 DAYS, and even then, they expect YOU to pay for insured, priority return shipping BEFORE receiving the replacement unit. If you return it non-insured or non-priority, they will refuse to replace it. I may wait until the 90 day warranty is expired, just to take advantage of my credit card’s warranty extension service. I guess I should’ve expected this from a $59 DVD player, but I guess I was spoiled by my last $59 DVD player: an Apex that played any horrible disc I threw at it and lived for 5 years.

Customer Review: Love It. This is a great DVD. I love the USB capability. I have used it several times to play avi files I downloaded and it worked great. I have not used the up converting feature yet. Great price.
