I think that this product is awesome! It never freezes or skips, and the sound is great, with the DTS! I was first infulenced by a friend saying,

"You going to have to pay a lot to get a lot."

I thought,

"Well I'll get it and see if it's good."

And was I suprised! The sound, the picture! I plan to buy another for my house, and a sound system to accompany this bad boy! So want if it dosen't play CD-R's? A DVD player is a DVD player, people don't buy these things to play CD's in them; they want good sounding, great picture DVD technology. So if you want a great DVD player at a great price, then this is what you want!

I recently purchased this Oritron DVD600 as my first DVD player. I figured for under [dollar amount] what do I have to loose. I was very impressed with the quality of the player. Yes it has a few features missing like the front display but I did not care. I have watched many DVD's on my friends players and this one is about the same quality and they spent way more than I did. If you want a first DVD player that is affordable and nice. then this is it. Lots of features are nice but most of my electronics have them and I rarely use them. This is a simple DVD player with good quality.

This DVD player was not worth the money, it was returned the same day I got it! The digital out was not in its 'normal' form and it had typos in the menus. As soon as I put a DVD in, it flickered for awhile before the DVD started playing.

I was not impressed by the quality of the workmanship or the quality of the player.

I suppose if you want a DVD player to just play DVD's, this is for you. If you actually want to get use out of the great quality that DVD's have to offer, I suggest spending a little more money and go with a brand you trust.

I purchased the Oritron DVD600 as a second player and it works great no problems. I read the reviews listed here and was skeptical about the product, however, for the price I took a chance and have been very pleased. Maybe the products early release had the bugs and have since fixed the problem? I dunno, but once again give it a try I have been pleased and plan to buy another for a christmas present. Oh one other thing, I had read people could not play Disney DVD's well mine plays all Disney DVD's I have including the Dinosoar DVD and has not had a problem on any DVD I have watched, which is about 25 so far, this is what makes me think the newer product is a better product.

This is my first DVD player, and I only was able to get it because I could afford this one. I have had it almost a year and am quite satisfied with the purchase. If you occasionally unplug it for a day, the software resets and it works fine. I learned this from tech support, which was helpful and available. Is it the greatest DVD player? Probably not, but for less than 100 clams, it is good enough. It is infinitely superior to a VCR and not much more expensive. Using a good DVD player cleaner occasionally also helps. Since I hooked it up so that there is no electricity to it when it is off, I have had fewer problems. It is constantly resetting the software and avoiding those messy glitches.

i just bought one for my daughter for Christmas.

I bought a DVD600 when I saw the price. Finally the prices for DVD players are starting to come down. In playing with it, I found that it is a cheap player, it does not work well running through another component (like a VCR) - when connected directly to my TV, it's great. It does not have 5.1 audio out's. If you want an affordable, entry level or second DVD player, the DVD600 is for you - when connected carefully, the video and audio quality is great. If you want more - spend more.

I brought the Oritron dvd600 for my parents for christmas 2000.. They hardly ever use it and 8 months later it doesn't work. (It doesn't read the DVD or CD)..So my advice is buy a brand name like Panasonic or Toshiba.. You get what you pay for.

I saw an ad in local electronic store for even cheaper. However, after I purchased and used it, I've decided to return for a few reasons. 1. It doesn't play VCD 2. DVD player loses connection to TV for no reason. I have to manually unplug the cable and replug it a few times, and I don't even move TV around nor the player at all. 3. The remote control doesn't work half of the time. Not to mention the buttons on the DVD player itself.

I just plugged this up yesterday and it works fine. I had it up and running in 15 min, with my digital ready receiver. The 5.1 sounds great and the picture is good. I would say for the price this is a good deal. It also has a nice icon menu on the onscreen display. If your looking for a basic DVD player with a few extras, I would recommend. You could always give it to the kids later, when you decide to upgrade.

As my introduction to DVD's, I got this player for Christmas. After reading some of the reviews posted here, I just feel that I had to put in a good woord for this player. I find it hard to believe that I managed to get the only GOOD one of these players out there..

I have been VERY pleased with the DVD600. Connecting it to my television and audio system was easy. I have NOT experienced the problems I have heard others talk about with stuck disks or disks that would not play. It has an excellent output for both video and audio. I did notice, however, that unless you have really good cables, you may experience your picture going from dark to light. Once I replaced the cheap cables I was using (which may have even been old audio cables) the problem went away. While I don't have an extensive DVD collection, so far, every DVD I have played has worked flawlessly. From the Matrix to the Cell to Charlie's Angels, each one worked without a hitch.

The bottom line is that from my experience, this is an excellent player if you are on a budget or to use as a secondary unit, kids room, etc..
