by radioguy Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Jan 31 '02
Pros: Jog-shuttle knob, sturdy construction.
Cons: Only one type of digital output.

A good DVD player but I found a better one...

by marcman , Jul 27 '01
Pros: Good performance and features
Cons: Had a problem with remote, weird resume feature implementation

I have had three DVD players in the last three years. This one is by far my favorite. My last DVD player was actually a Playstation 2. I recently sold my PS2 because it lacked VCD, MP3 and CDR capabilities. Not to mention the lack of quality games....

Cons: Can't see name of MP3 files
This is for the new Panasonic RV31 which just came out Feb-01. It's a great machine especially for the money. All the bells and whistles. You don't need DTS decoder etc... since your home theatre receiver will have one. Anyways, it already sound good...

Very good all around DVD player

by jrrglobe , Jun 19 '02
Pros: Many features, easy to use, very progamable
Cons: MP3 list is difficult to manage. No COAX output.
I searched far and wide for a DVD player that was capable of shuffling a list of MP3's. There isn't one. So I can't hold that against this player. It does play mp3's... but only in the order they were burned.

The DVD playback is excellent....

More Bang for your Buck!

by nethermind , Dec 11 '02
Pros: Excellent picture quality for budget minded consumers, lots of formats accepted on this unassuming player
