No DVD-AUDIO/SACD, but There Are Few Titles Available in those Formats Anyway.,
By Machrohn (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yamaha DV-C6860BL DVD Changer (Electronics)
Ever since I discovered this player, I have been highly impressed with how much it met both my normal and oddball demands. As a student of Musical Theatre, Opera, Classical vocal and choral literature, and Jazz and Classical piano, 192-KHz, 24-Bit conversion is of great importance to me. One thing that sets this player apart from the other manufacturers' players is Yamaha's CD UpSampling feature. For those titles which are currently only available on CD and possibly will never be released on DVD-AUDIO and/or SACD, this option converts standard CDs to the quality of DVD-AUDIO. On the Musical Theatre, Opera, and choral side of things, this player is capable of playing both NTSC (North American) and PAL (European) DVDs on corresponding as well as opposite TVs. For certain titles in these genres, the North American editions are either four percent slower in tempo and picture movement and flatter in pitch than the European editions due to the method of PAL-to-NTSC conversion used by the distributors of such DVDs, or do not include as many bonus features as their original European counterparts. Sometimes, it can be the other way around, except the European editions might be four percent faster and sharper and have less bonus material than their original North American counterparts. On both ends of the spectrum, if the audio pitch is corrected without changing the audio speed to keep the picture and sound in synch, a subaudible breaking-up effect may be noticed as the result of slight artifacts from slightly bending or stretching the pitch in the conversion process. However, because of this player's bicompatibility with both color systems, I have the freedom to choose and purchase whatever editions are the best. Although it is not in the manual, this player can be made multi-region compatible including RCE DVDs. Turn on the DVD player. Make sure there are no discs loaded. With the tray open, using its supplied remote control, slowly press 99990. Wait for the 'Region 0' message to disappear. Close the tray. Now you can play any kind of optical disc without thinking about it. The only little flaw with this player's firmware is that when the 'All Discs' repeat mode is selected, when playing DVDs, after playing through all the titles, instead of moving on to the next disc, it returns to the home menu. If Yamaha could do a minor revision to the firmware which engages that same menu bipass as when repeating a single DVD, the machine would change DVDs automatically. I discovered this by reauthoring DVDs without any of their menus using DVD Shrink Version 3.2. In conclusion, if you are looking for a DVD player with high video compatibility*, you have come to the right place! *Others have reported problems playing 'Dual Discs'--a type of disc which includes DVD-VIDEO on one side or layer, and CD DIGITAL AUDIO on another, also known as 'Hybrids.' However, big names, such as Panasonic, Sony, and Pioneer, do not recommend using these discs in their players.

Excellent DVD player,

This review is from: Yamaha DV-C6860BL DVD Changer (Electronics)
I wanted a five disk DVD player that would play Region 1 and 2 DVDs, and wouldn't cost over 200.00. That's this DVD player. I don't know much about the other formats of video inputs that previous reviewers wrote about, but I do know that the quality of picture and sound from this player in regards to DVDs is excellent. I also like the remote, you don't have to read the manual to figure out how to work it. This appeals to me, as lately it appears that the industry is moving towards remotes that require a college degree to use, let alone understand.

PIECE OF GARBAGE,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Yamaha DV-C6860BL DVD Changer (Electronics)
This DVD Changer is a PIECE OF GARBAGE. I have had it for only TWO WEEKS and it has siezed up on me FOUR TIMES. I had to unplug it just to turn it off when the picture froze on a scene. Unfortunately the scene that froze had a loud noise at that point so instead of just a muted picture, I had to deal with a sustained squeal until I unplugged the DVD Changer.
