Does this player show what point you are in DVD? example, 23 minutes in a 60' dvd- useful for dance/yoga etc? If not, could you recommend one. thx

It doesn't have a display on the DVD player itself, so you cannot see it there. However there is a button on the remote that allows you to have the video time displayed on the top right hand corner of the screen, so it is possible - just depends whether having it on the screen bothers you or not.

No - this is a basic DVD player. I was looking for a low-price, fairly quality player just to have on my desktop while I work. Right now, I feel like the Blu-ray versions are higher priced than they are worth and since I've gone through two different portable DVD players (not this model or brand) and I didn't want to waste that amount on something I was unsure of.

I use my player for what it is, a DVD player and it works very well. I am not interested in downloading therefore I have absolutely no idea.

Mine plays DVDs better than any DVD player. Return your unit and get another one.

I have the same model. And the DVD stoped working after shortly after one year. We only used the DVD several times. Sony basically told me I was SOL. The one your warranty was up. Stay away!!!!!

Sorry, I have never tried to play a dvd that I recorded myself. It seems like the process should be the same as the motion picture companies use to create dvds so my guess is that the player should read them.

So far it had been the best DVD player I've ever owned. Yes I know it does blue ray it this is my first br player. Also the international DVD playing had been flawless. I think it has been about a year since we've owned it. I do make sure to turn it off when finished playing, something I wasn't great about with other players.

This player will play Blu-ray and regular DVD's equally well. It is a good player. I use mine on the treadmill. For the price it is excellent. They have great customer service. This player came out three years ago. That is why the price is low.

We played regular dvd's on ours, only a couple, and it gave out! If you are looking at a used one, don't buy it! The replacement battery is too expensive.

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?

My Unit never played DVDs from the beginning. Never played DVDs from the box. I thought it was a region code issue but it is not. Then I though it was an Firmware issue so I upgraded from V26 to V29. Still does not play DVDs. I bought it from Amazon LLC directly. If I would have found out this after I purchased the unit, I would have gave Amazon a piece of my mind. But it's too late now as a couple years has gone by. Please learn from my mistake. I bought a VERY EXPENSIVE CD Player (Philips HTS8100/37).

Where did you by the sound drivers and how much?I finally got mine working but before Brian's post. He is correct' as best I can tell, and the problem rests with our computer software. I purchased a " DVD Decoder" download load on line from Roxio (I paid $20.98 but you can get it for a one time only down load for about $15 -if that is what you want). It now plays DVD movies and installs software which is what I wanted. I uninstalled the Hero program from my computer. Happy with the results but I only wish that I had been able to read Brian James post before I purchased the fix.

My question is to anyone out there. I'm experiencing the same old problem I've come to expect with DVD players - they eventually - sometimes the next day or two - get to where they refuse to play an increasing number of discs. Present Sylvania VHS/DVD combo has lasted 2 years, but is beginning to skip and refuse more discs. Is this Sony or another player the best bet for playing all discs? Most of the refused discs show no signs of damage to my eyes. Thanks much!
