Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The JVC XVN310BK progressive-scan DVD player is a great-value all-in-one player. Not only does it play DVDs and CDs, it also plays recordable CD-R/RWs, DVD-R and DVD-RW discs (in video format), VCD (Video CD), SVCD, MP3, JPEG, and MPEG-4 (Simple Profile) formats. It also features great conveniences such as express play start, which starts a single-layer DVD movie in only four seconds; disc memory resume function for up to 30 discs, which lets you pick up exactly where you left off the last time; quick playback with sound at 1.5x speed, variable and slow search; three-step zoom play; one-touch instant replay; and resume (bookmark).

The player gives you direct digital progressive-scan output using its component-video connectors. On the audio side, the XVN310BK offers Dolby Digital and DTS with coaxial digital audio output for easy connection to any home audio system with a compatible input. On the analog side, the XVN310BK makes use of high-bit-rate and high-sampling-rate digital-to-analog conversion--10-bit/54 MHz video D/A conversion and 24-bit/192 kHz audio D/A conversion--and features a versatile VFP (video fine processor) so you see and hear your movies as cleanly as possible.

The XVN310BK has component video, S-video, and composite-video outputs, a coaxial digital audio output for PCM, Dolby Digital, and DTS passthrough, and JVC's AV CompuLink connection. It comes with a warranty covering parts for 1 year and labor for 90 days.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT a region-free DVD player!, January 10, 2005

This review is from: JVC XVN310BK Progressive-Scan DVD Player , Black (Electronics)

Although a good DVD player, it is NOT a region-free (multi-zone) DVD player, despite technical descriptions posted on various seller internet sites (the official JVC website does not provide any useful technical information on which you can rely). I bought this player (XV N310B/312S) but figured out that it plays only DVDs with the following encoding: ALL, 1, 1-2, 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4-5-6. It does not play DVDs that do not include code "1". When I asked JVC about the discrepancies between technical information provided by seller websites and the player's real technical configuration, I received the following e-mail reply on January 6, 2005: "The information you have seen on the internet is incorrect. All DVD Players manufactured by JVC-America can only play Region 1 or discs that are Multi-Region discs that include "1"." THE SOLUTION: If you plan to buy a DVD player, first ask the manufacturer directly about technical details (do NOT rely on any other websites).

1.0 out of 5 stars I've returned two --the video output hasn't worked on either, June 15, 2005

This review is from: JVC XVN310BK Progressive-Scan DVD Player , Black (Electronics)

The first one I received, my cable man installer told me the video and audio output on the unit were defective. So I returned it, got a second one, and on the 2nd one, the audio worked fine, but the video output was defective. I am not trying for a 3rd time. If I decide a need a DVD player, I will spend the extra bucks to get a decent one. Don't waste your time and money on this product.
