Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Samsung's titanium-finished DVD-C631P five-disc carousel changer dishes up favorite movies and music, featuring high-end component-video outputs, built-in MP3 and WMA (Windows Media Audio) decoding, and compatibility with JPEG image CDs and Kodak Picture CDs so you can enjoy a slideshow of digital pictures right on a television.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVD-C631P stands ready to deliver the full potential of DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, provides higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. In addition, top-of-the-line component-video outputs help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts on compatible advanced televisions, while composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television.

A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. Another handy feature is EZ-View letterbox eliminator, which makes it easy to enjoy full-screen pictures on 4:3 aspect-ratio TVs--even when you're watching widescreen DVDs. Supplied accessories include a composite-video/stereo analog-audio interconnect, instruction manual, and a remote control.

3.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Remote, Worthless Carousel, May 5, 2003
By Miguel Muñoz (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This DVD player comes with a very well designed remote control, which makes it easy to navigate the buttons in a dark room with my eyes on the TV. All remotes should be this well designed. Unfortunately, the 5-disc carousel is worthless. You can put five CDs into it, but it will never automatically switch from one CD to the next. If you hit "Play", it will play the current CD, then stop at the end. If you choose "Random Play," it will randomly choose tracks on the current CD, without ever switching to another one. The only way to switch discs is to manually hit the "disc skip" button. This defeats the purpose of buying a 5-disc changer!

The manual claims that Random Play will give you the option to switch between discs, but Samsung Tech Support told me that the manual is wrong.

That said, it plays DVDs very well, and the excellent remote control makes it very easy to use. I especially like the "Instant Replay" button, which lets me jump back about ten seconds to catch whatever piece of dialog I might have missed due to room noise. They also took care to make it very easy to view photo CDs. (This was a problem with earlier models.)

I don't have an HD-TV, so I can't comment on the qualities of the Progressive Scan display.

In summary, this would make a fine, inexpensive single-disc DVD player. It's less expensive than many other single disc progressive scan players, so if you're not counting on a useful carousel, it's a very good buy. But if you want a 5-disc carousel, choose a different model.

3.0 out of 5 stars Mixed Emotions, December 7, 2003
By Stephen L. Cotton (Omaha, Ne. United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I agree with most of the above reviews.I was also disappointed that this changer does not change to the next disc automatically.You would think that a 5 disc changer would play a disc all the way through and go to the next disc number and play that one too.Not so.You cannot randomly play 5 music cds.There are mistakes in the owner's manual.I found this out by calling the 800 number and explaining that the screen does not show what the manual says it should show.Two things that I love about this player:The picture and sound.I hate the fact that on some movies if you stop the player to grab a sandwich and come back and push play again the movie starts all over again.What a pain.Also I wished that when you power up the unit it would not go into autoplay before you get a chance to go to your easy chair and sit down.Subtitles are hard to get rid of.The default position is on.It doesn't matter if you don't speak German or Italian.It will still put the first language listed on the disc subtitles into action.You have to hit Subtitle on remote to turn it off.I like the picture format changer located on the remote.You can changer from letterbox to screen fit with the remote while the movie is playing.I bought mine brand new in box for 69 dollars.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not too bad.. or good, September 20, 2003
By "hotwirez" (Gaffney, SC United States) - See all my reviews
I bought this player a while back, and connected it to my hdtv with no problems, using component cables and progressive scan switch turned on. It plays every dvd I have tried, and every audio cd also. It does not play a standard vcd, instead, it plays SVCDs, which are better anyway, since you can vary the effective quality. I'm pretty sure it will play a DVD-R (Most any player should be able to read this format), but I am sure it won't play DVD+Rs (This is too advanced for most players to play without being designed for it specifically). It plays mp3 cds, but will not navigate through directories, so you'll have to unsort your music and put them all in the root directory of the cd, and it plays them alphabetically. This wouldn't have been my first choice if I was going for the best, but at its price, I don't think you can beat the features that it does have.
