Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Philips DVD950AT DVD player uses discrete dual-laser pickup technology to provide the best possible picture and sound with both DVD- and CD- formatted discs. This model also provides the ability to upgrade features using a DVD software disc. Upgradable features include backgrounds, search speeds and modes, audio processing, display parameters, interactivity, titles, CD text, languages, screen savers, and video processing.

Along with a 10-bit video digital-to-analog converter and a 96-KHz, 24-bit audio digital-to-analog converter, the Philips DVD950AT offers coaxial and optical digital outputs, and virtual 3-D surround sound. The built-in Dolby Digital decoder supplies the 5.1 channel outputs that can be connected to a Dolby Digital-ready receiver and a powered subwoofer. Other technical features include a perfect still-picture frame advance function, allowing you to watch one clear still frame at a time. Other options include multiple viewing angles and an onscreen bit-rate meter.

Additional features include a headphone jack with volume control, an icon-driven onscreen menu system, and the included PhosphorGlow remote control. The three-jack (YUV) component video output, for televisions with a corresponding input, offers maximum signal quality and color accuracy. The Philips DVD950AT is also equipped with a PIN-lock parental control system to prevent children from watching up to 80 preprogrammed discs on the family DVD player.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good player, bad manual and menus, January 24, 2002

I have not had any issues since instaling this DVD player. The picture and sound are very good. The manual and on-screen setup menus are very weak. I am very technical and had to wing my way to getting this thing to work. If you want to play MPEGS on this player you need to check the compatability.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great DVD, January 1, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Philips DVD950AT DVD Player (Electronics)

After researching several DVD players we settled on Philips due to the fact that we have a Philips TV. So far its been great. No problem with movies or music cds, easy to hook up, set-up and install. Intutive instructions and display, good remote. If you are willing to spend the money you'll have a good piece of equipment that will last.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet DVD Player, October 29, 2000

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Philips DVD950AT DVD Player (Electronics)

This here is the best dvd player on amazon. It's not too expensive and it's got everything that you'll need. Nice remote and it won't screw up your tv like other ones do. This is an average price for an awesome system. If I were you I would buy it! Right away!
