Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This upconverting DVD player is very small and slim and lightweight. The quality of the picture on my new plasma TV is excellent. I compared the same DVD played on my previous (5 years old) Samsung player with this player and the difference was obvious. I'm guessing this improvement is due to two reasons: the upconverting process plus the HDMI output. The player also has Component and Composite outputs, but the picture is much better using an HDMI cable to the TV. One slim cable for excellent picture and sound compared to the five bulky cables required by my previous player -- that is also a big improvement. ** Update 8/14/2011 ** This DVD player and remote are still working very well. ** Update 9/13/2012 ** Still working perfectly after a couple of years of frequent use. ** Update 10/9/2013 ** Player and remote still working perfectly. ** Update 02/9/2015 ** Everything still working perfectly. In contrast to some other reviews, my player is fairly quiet. And it resumes a disk left in the player right where I stopped it.
