I think so but we've eaten up several blue ray players in less than 18 months. Seems like the sound keeps going out and no one either with the blue ray player or Samsung knows why. I'm hooked up to a 25 dollar DVD player and the sound is okay and the picture is okay. I've mostly given up and watch movies on my Mac Laptop and enjoy it very much.

120HZ is a must for 3D movie watching. If your DVD is not 3D, it probably would not go that fast. I wonder anyone had experience in 3D playing on this player?

I really do not know, I would not purchase this particular dvd player, if was you.

My advice would be to go for the LG. The Samsung is a good player but the LG is multi-region Blu-ray with a remote code and a simple hack makes it multi-region for DVD too. The Samsung has a Reon scaler & the LG a QDEO scaler, both are excellent. I had the LG for almost 3yrs, it's a solid piece of kit and with the right firmwares (go to avs forums for these) you can play burnt BD - Rs & - REs, it plays all the HD audio types & it was updated to 'BD Live' for all the on-line stuff some discs have. The Samsung is a good machine & has its fans but I think the LG offers more.

I use Imation dvd+ and dvd-, this player does play both formats, though would occasionally skip/slow up. Not sure if it is due to dirty discs or the dvd player itself. Good overall unit though.

I forgot I posted this. We noticed that it is significantly less loud when playing a dvd vs a blu ray. Trying to decide if we should return it and get a different one or not. So if anyone has this please let me know is you BR player loud?

It's A Good DVD Player... Philips Have Good DVD Players... I Recommend Joe Haven't Had Any Problems With Mine

I have not had an issue with sound with the unit. I guess it depends on what you are trying to achieve for sound. I think the unit is a bit slow for response is my biggest concern. Otherwise I just use it to play L&H; classic films. Because it was much cheaper to buy the region 2 library disc set than it was for ntsc by about 200.00.

The slow version moves very little, just enough for most system to realize that there's movement and it doesn't really impact normal use. You can see the cursor jerk back and forth by just a few pixels when you're watching it. The fast version moves a lot and makes it very difficult to use the computer when the jiggler is active, but some systems need the extra movement.

It does offer variable speed slow and fast playback, from 1/16 to 32x, but no audio at other than normal speed. I used to have a VHS machine with the feature you describe and I used it for watching things like the news, but I can't imagine wanting to watch movies like that? But good luck with your search just the same.

I don't think that this fun is quiet enough for that purpose. The first speed is too fast, which makes it noisy...can you imagine the third speed?On the other hand, I also have the Lasko performance series with the remote control and that one is very quiet.

Personally I would not recommend this camera for slow motion. Because it only records in 1080i (interlaced) it doesn't produce individual frames that are clear enough to show off a video in slow motion. You end up with vertical lines which make the video noisy. In fact, the true limitation of this camera, and any camera that shoots interlaced footage is that it suffers when there is lots of action going on in the scene. I would recommend a 720p camera over this or any other 1080i camera. Another issue is the frame rate. If you want to capture something in high enough quality to be played back in slow motion you're going to want something around 60fps.

No. It is not a dvd player. Dvd's are almost antiquated now as we move into the digital world.

After returning Orei, I purchased Philips 9" LCD Portable DVD Player PD9000 / PD9000/37 on May 2. I don't know if it is the best, but it has been working very well (and I've been using it quite often).

it plays back the video at 30fps showing slow motion ... you can speed it up to real speed (as much as 1000fps) during playback

I have only noticed a minor motion 'jerkiness' on a couple of TV shows, but I attribute it to my satellite receiver, otherwise Sports in HD and DVD viewing are phenomenal! I will look into the owners manual, to see if I can find anything. You say it is intermittent...for all viewing or on certain shows? Also, are you viewing via cable or satellite?
