Quality of the player
917975
This machine has some issues and limitations! While it works and plays both VHS and DVD, it is designed to record only in the VHS mode and not the DVD mode, and the digital display is only for tracking the play of VHS tapes. The machine often makes noises in the play function of both the VHS and DVD modes which I find annoying, as I have to turn up the volume a bit on the movie to drown out the noise of the player. The Sony machine I had for over 10 years before it developed an issue with the DVD player was way better quality wise.

so far, so good. I just wanted it to be able to play vhs or dvds without needing 2 different players since space was a premium. have not tried recording to either yet.

Probably the best value in terms of quality. Built well and lasts a very long time (my previous one only died after a child pulled the DVD door to prevent it from closing and dropped the entire unit 6 feet to the floor with the door stuck open). Playback was and is always very good.

No problem, it is a very nice player, nice picture, and it will go for 6 hrs or better, hoped that helped, enjoy flight....,

Hi Marilyn...I'm sorry to be completely useless with answers for this item. It was shipped to a teacher for her class and is with a new teacher now. I will try to find out but they are so busy that no-one has ever responded to my questions about this player. I hope someone else can answer for you sooner. I understand it works well but unfortunately that is all I can help you with.

Absolutely. I run it all day long sometimes and it's flawless. Love this player.

Sorry Nathan, I never had a chance to try it. The player died after a few hours out of the box. I wouldn't recommend this player.

Picture quality is great if you use a good quality HD video with the HDMI hook up. I have no complaints with this video player, it has a great picture quality for a little player. The quality of the picture all depends on the quality going into the player and the hook up used.

Depends, most cannot. These players are not very sophisticated. Go to a "pad" or netbook if want games as well as music, video, pictures, ebooks plus you can use the internet as well, r00t

Be sure to get a good set of earphones to take advantage of the sound quality of this player. RIPTIDZ are fairly inexpensive (< $10) and work really well with this unit.

I just bought a DB30K player. I freaked out when I saw your post. What LFE issue are you talking about and how will it affect a novice user?Michael

I'm going to ask you one more question if you don't mind. If I just want the best player I can find to listen to music and don't care about lists, album art, interfaces or anything else. I just want to put my songs on the player and listen to them in the order they come up, which do you recommend? (Can you tell I'm an old lady and just love to listen to music? LOL!) All that matters to me is good sound, ease of putting songs on the player, number of songs I can add to the player and how long it will play music on one charge. Even the Cowan 160 GB player sounds interesting to me.

I've only downloaded one time from Amazon, but yeah, it was fairly easy. I'm no techie either. I think this player is far better than Coby. The sound quality is incredible. When Sony makes a product, it is very well thought out. I actually bought two of these players, one for my mother and one for my girl friend. They both love it.

I honestly don't remember. If pressed, I would say no, but I'm really not sure. However, either way I would recommend that you DO NOT buy this player. It's just awful, and there are many better players available now in the same price range.

I've had mine for about 2.5 years and it is working flawlessly. This is, by far, the best Bluray/DVD player that I have ever owned - 2nd best would be my Oppo BDP-83. FYI, I have not loaded the latest firmware because I want to retain ISO file playback capability. These are exceptionally good players, I highly recommend them.-RW-

Have had mine for over 2 years and no problems yet. But then it might depend on how much you use the player? Mine doesn't really get used that much.

I don't think it is a quality player , the one I have gave a distorted image after only 9 months , I won't be another from this brand

I also have an older Sony 6 disc player.(a little newer than yours) Mine also failed and the speakers crapped out. This new player is, in my opinion, much better and a great replacement
