3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, but it isn't region-free, March 7, 2009
This review is from: TOSHIBA SD 5000 REGION FREE UPCONVERTING 720p/1080i HI-DEF DVD PLAYER. PLAYS DVDs FROM ANY COUNTRY ON AN AMERICAN TV.
My older DVD players (2) were both having different problems with some DVDs. Usually, I could play the DVD on one of them if the other didn't like it. One day while I was out at Circuit City, I saw this DVD player marked down to $60 and on impulse, I bought it. Now I had an upconverting DVD player (which only works if you have HDMI cables and a TV to connect it to) but more important to me, I was able to play almost all the DVDs that were problematic in the other older players.

I don't know why this is advertised as being "region-free" because I put in a Region 2, PAL DVD yesterday and a message came up telling me it was the wrong region. There are no instructions on how to make this player region-free that I can find. The PAL format is supported, but that doesn't do much good if you can't change the region.

All in all, for $60, I am pretty happy with this player.
