4.0 out of 5 stars Good solution until format war is over or smaller HDTVs, January 14, 2008
By J. Gerdom (Watertown, Mass.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I needed an upscaling player for my 37-inch HD television but didn't want to spend a lot of money. I also didn't want a $50 player that would only cause me trouble. After quite a bit of research, I settled on the DN798.

I'm never sure what to think about picture quality comments in reviews, but this rated well with Consumer Reports and seemed to be well-liked by reviewers. Even without adjusting my set or fine tuning the player, I'm very happy with this player. The closest comparison I can think of is that the movies look similar to the film-based movies available through Comcast's OnDemand.

The quality varies a bit from DVD to DVD, but there are a lot of factors in producing a good image. One that really stood out was The Simpson's Movie, but my nine-year-old version of Dumb and Dumber looked great as well.

Keep in mind that to upscale video and watch protected discs, which is just about anything purchased, the player must be connected using HDMI.

Other pros: Sound was great via coax digital, USB port right on front (goofy limitations in the manual, though), couldn't have been easier to set up.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works great so far., December 11, 2007
I purchased this DVD player a few months ago to replace a Denon dvd playe, which I loved. Before hooking this player up, I was worried that the quality would not be great (given the low price). However, after an easy installation, I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent picture and sound quality. (I have the player connected to my receiver via an HDMI cable and a fiber optic cable.)

This player is a great segue between a standard and high definition dvd player.

Pros: Great picture, great sound, easy setup
Cons: Small remote (universal definitely required), not DivX compatible

5.0 out of 5 stars LG DN798 1080p DVD player, February 1, 2008
This has been one of the best DVD Players I have ever purchased. I hooked it up to my LG 32" LCD TV and I am amazed at the picture quality. It was worth the price.

The only beef I have with this player is that I was hoping to watch movies from my flash drive. You can only look at pictures. Except for that, it's a great DVD player!
