As any DVD player you have to read the instructions and to know the TV that would bring out the full potential of the DVD player. In my case, I have to enquired a lot from various dealers and even the Sony Support Center to make sure I don't miss anything, viz. the Sony TV did not exhibit the 16.9 wide screen format. The support was so kind, she enlighted me to turn this feature on by using the TV remote (this was not mewntion in the Sony TV Guide Book). Once the TV gone to another format, I had to turn this feature on once more. Read more

I ordered this dvd player then cancelled within in hour once i saw i was being charged $63.98! It was supposed to be $16.99 plus $19.50 shipping. I then received a remote control for the dvd player and it was in nasty condition! Gross! I havent checked my credit card yet, i think i was charged for the remote. Read more

I've been using my PS2 as a DVD player for about 2 years and figured using the stupid controller as the remote is so 2001. I decided to find a DVD player that could suit my needs. I needed one that would have Progressive scan for HDTV, one that would play burned DVD's (Legally of course, one with 5.1 audio support, and one that would look stylish. I got that and more with this Sony player. At 100 bucks, it's a little more than the standard $40 players you can pick up, but it does have great features. DVD+ and -RW reading, MP3 CD player, 5.1 Coaxial output, progressive scan, pan and scan, a beautiful exterior and a great remote. Also, the thing is almost silent. Only when the dvd loads does it make a peep. I'm docking it one star because Pan and Scan only works with certain dvd's and the fact that Sony left out a Digital Optical output in the back. Also, you have to stop the movie to adjust sound and picture options. I do like how it picks up where you first stopped the video. For the price, it's hard to beat this fully loaded DVD player.

This was my first DVD player, because my kids were getting sick and tired of playing DVDs on my computer. The first one (DVP-NS425P)I got had what I considered to be serious playback problems. While playing various DVD disks, it did not play the video smoothly, but would stop for a fraction of a second at random places during the film, before continuing smoothly. This happened several times while playing the same disk. When I scanned back past the spot where this happened, and then replayed the same section again, it did not happen again. But it would happen again at a different spot, and when I scanned back and replay again, the same thing happened; it played fine. Another way to describe the problem is, that the disc seems to "stutter" at random spots. These are never the same spot on the individual disks. It happened with almost every disk I played. I have only played movie disks, that I own or rent. I have not played any DVD -R, -RW, +R or +RW disks. The last time this happened was with a brand new DVD disk, fresh out of the box. Thinking that I just had a faulty player, I went back to the store to exchange it for a new one. Unfortunately the new one does exactly the same thing. Except it does it worse. The random stops are now much longer. The player is being returned of a refund. I will not get a new one. As far as I am concerned, this is a bad DVD player. On top of that, SONY tech support has been unhelpful and outright incompetent. Read more
