Tech Talk
Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending a field comprising the odd lines to the screen first, followed by the field with the even lines, both fields are written at one time. A full image is created instantaneously, using the maximum resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives a sharper picture with no line structure.

What's in the Box
DVD/VCR combo, remote control (with batteries), AV cable, RF cable, printed operating instructions

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice product for the price!, December 31, 2005
By 
IntrepidOK (Oklahoma City, OK USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Philips DVP3050V/37 DVD/VCR Combo (Electronics)
I just purchased this VCR/DVD combo at the local Wal-Mart (sorry Amazon, I had gift cards to spend, otherwise I would have purchased it here). =)

It was extremely easy to set up, and it played the first DVD flawlessly. I noticed in another review that someone complained about the DVD tray. I did not find it anymore flimsy than other DVD players in the same price range.

My only wish is that it did have an eject button on the remote. It does seem odd that Philips didn't include that feature.

Overall, I am pleased and highly recommend buying this product. If you're looking for a ton of bells and whistles and something not encased in plastic, then this isn't the product for you. But it is a decent product to watch the occasional movie, whether it be on DVD or VHS.

No eject button from the remote and the VHS rewind is slow as molasses. Otherwise OK but you can get something more up to date for the same price.

1.0 out of 5 stars Piece of Crap, December 10, 2006
This review is from: Philips DVP3050V/37 DVD/VCR Combo (Electronics)
I bought this for my elderly mother - not a whiz at electronics but she knows how to insert a disc and hit play. However, it seems the machine doesn't know how to scan a disc and play. We would get various screen messages, "insert a disc," "faulty disc," "loading," but the thing wouldn't kick in. We'd eject and clean the disc. We'd eject and and re-load the disc. We'd turn it off and on again; "insert a disc," "faulty disc," "loading." Sometimes, after who knows which combination, Oh! it would play! Pretty darn frustrating for an elderly lady and her daughter so I swapped it out for my Samsung 4600. Now she is happily watching Christmas with Andre Rieu and I am listening to jet aircraft approching as I try to watch a VHS cassett. (it's pretty loud)
