Although I purchased a different unit, the GoVideo 8440 Portable DVD Player, it played exactly 6 movies before dying. GoVideo replaced it with a refurbished model, which arrived in non-working condition. I received a THIRD replacement unit (new)from GoVideo, which failed within minutes out of the box. Please note that I have since discovered that GoVideo Inc. is NOT a member of the Better Business Bureau of Central/Northern Arizona and has MULTIPLE complaints against the company. Purchase at your own risk!!

My DVD Player died after 4 months.

It used to play everything. But one day suddenly it stopped playing and gave a message "Wrong Disc".

I faced the problem with remote functions.

It always interfered with my Harman Kardon remote. When I operated my Harman Kardon remote, it used to behave funny.

Very unreliable.

I tried contacting customer support. But the email bounced back.

I wasn't very impressed with this product however very impressed with Amazon.com. They are some excellent vendors and I'll do more business with them in the future. They were excellent.

in terms of this product I was not very satisfied with it and should've gotten the Toshiba which was only a few $ more. I have used Toshiba for many years but never owned a Go Video product before.

What made me get this one was the cost and the ability to read DVD+R media, which is doesn't read I must add. I purchased some DVD+R media not knowing that most machines only read DVD-R.

I would pass if I could've knowing what I know now.

but Amazon is AWESOME

The unit itself was hard to set up for progressive scan, as it didn't output the menu on the progressive scan outputs until you used the menu to configure it to use progressive scan.

My main problem is with GoVideo's support. My unit had trouble reading store-bought DVDs after 7 months. There was no response to an on-line service request after 8 days. When I called (after waiting on the phone for 40 minutes) I learned that it would cost more than the purchase price of the unit to repair, since the "labor" part of the "parts and labor" warranty had run out. That means the warranty is effectively worthless after 90 days.
