4.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the money, July 1, 2008

I bought the JVC to replace a panasonic DVD-recorder the suddenly died (I realized that with ONDEMAND that I rarely ever used the recorder features anyway). The only thing it could have used was an optical audio connection, but the digital coax works just as well.

The picture is great; it obviously doesn't have as many bells and whistles as the DVD-recorder that it replaced, but it definitely gets the job done.

When my wife and I first got this DVD player a few months ago, we were very happy with it. The quality of picture and sound playback is good, and it'll resume play where you left off if you turn off and back on later. The draw is a little flimsy, but not enough to be a big problem, and it looks nice enough too. If it wasn't for the bugs, we'd have given this either four or five stars as a player.

A few months on, though, the bugs have become very, very annoying. Today, we both hate this DVD player, and really wish we hadn't bought it.

Sometimes, the menu will load, but the option to move around and select one of the menu options will be missing, so you can't choose ANY of the options. That happens on a lot of DVDs we have, almost always on some of them, and only occasionally on others. And these are DVDs that all worked perfectly on our old player.

On another DVD we have, we select "play", and then instead of playing the movie like it did on our old player, it jumps into the previews again - the only way to start the movie is to go into scene selection and choose the first scene. It's not a critical problem. Really, none of them are, and you can get around them. But we shouldn't HAVE to be "getting around" problems on a DVD player that we've paid for.

All these things are annoyances that engineers and testers should have been found and fixed LONG before this DVD player ever hit the market. And because it seems like it's a software problem, not a hardware one, I imagine this is something that'll be sitting on every one of these players. The playback is the only reason this player gets 2 stars at all. I'd be strongly tempted, otherwise, to give it only one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good for a low price, November 18, 2011

I wanted a simple DVD player to do some video work and this fits the bill. So far reliable, lightweight, and easy to use
