Great DVD Player

I just got this DVD player for my birthday and I like it a lot. It has a stylish look and plays great. I have already watched 3 DVD's and each looked great on my screen. I like the remote and it's easy to locate and use buttons. I recommend it. :)

Flawed

Unfortunately, this product has flaws that can not be overlooked, and I returned the next day.

1. There is no position memory for DVD stopping, to return to your last spot of viewing, once the disc is removed. In fact, after 22 minutes in the stop mode, the player shuts down and you lose the disc position. When watching shows over several days this is a must.

2. There are several view modes to resize the screen picture, but none of them work on my widescreen TV, with this player. The 1.33:1 all stretch and fill the screen. The older 2.35:1 that are not formatted to fit the screen all remain narrow and can not be expanded or zoomed. I tried the same discs in my older Panasonic DVD player and I was able to fill the screen, shrink, etc. I tried every combination available and many discs. I use the view mode quite a bit for older TV shows and concerts on DVD.

3. The remote response is lacking and it is very small. It needs to be pointed at the player straight on. My other equipment  more

Not Toshiba's best product, but it's OK

When you think Toshiba, you usually think of great, solid performing products. However, this DVD player is just OK. It was very easy to install and I was playing a DVD in minutes. Though, I noticed that the machine has a slow response when you want it to do something and makes this slight clicking sound when I skipped chapters. The image quality is good and it works. It's good as a low end DVD player.
