Does anyone know of a DVD player that is fairly cheap, but still decent. I don't need anything too fancy because I don't watch all that many DVDs in my dorm, but something that won't break shortly would be good.
you need a portable dvd player or just a dvd player? BB had some company dvd players for like 17 bucks a while back.
I got a few of the Daewood combo DVD/VHS players for aboug $80 at Target. My kids love em because they can put tapes or DVDs in and at $80 I don't worry about replacing them. DD
uprising. just a DVD player, I can always use laptop if I want to watch them somewhere else, but would like a regular dvd player for my room. dadakota.. that sounds like a good deal for a combo one... I'm tempted to buy one of those really cheap ones like you mentioned just wonder if they last more than a week.. but at that price you can always replace them.. the cheapest one I see on best buy from a brand I've heard of much is a magnavox one for 46 I think it was.
CyberHome DVD player for 36 bucks. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...ragments/product/olslinelistingsortfilter.jsp Also, Oritron - Progressive-Scan DVD Player w/MP3 Playback & JPEG Viewer for $33. Seems they sold out their CyberHome DVD players. I remember when they were like $17 a piece during that christmas sale, everyone had like 5 in their cart that morning.
swoly.. yeah I know walmart sells some just was curious if anyone had actually tried any of them.. uprising thanks. . do you know if oritron is decent or not.. It's probably fine for what I need it for. One more year of college and I'll worry about a better one later.
I am pretty sure these players are decent, and more than likely will last for the time you say you hope they will. There is a cheaper dvd player at circuit city, but don't know the quality of this one. http://www.circuitcity.com/rpsm/cat...72+20012873/link/ref/rpem/ccd/categorylist.do I believe you get like 30 days to return electronics at these stores just in case something happens.
Rocket Fan, check this page out. http://www.circuitcity.com/rpsm/oid/112631/rpem/ccd/productDetailReview.do#tabs has specs on the system and a couple pages of customer reviews of the product and what they rate it.
I bought my gf's mother a decent one at Best Buy for $37 plus tax. I couldn't find it on the website, but it looks a lot like This One There's always ebay, just make sure it plays the right kind of dvd's. Pugs
pugsly. that magnavox one is one I was looking at as well that you linked me too. I'll have to look and see which of these have all the cords etc since Im sure some make you buy them seperately
keep seeing new stuff. that review stuff is good uprising.. always like sites that have customer reviews
The Cyberhome players are very decent, particularly if your TV is less than 40-inches. I own one as my "multi-region" player (there is a trivial hack which allows them to play foreign discs), and even on a big-screen HDTV, I get acceptable performance.
The Philips DVP642 is pretty neat. More expensive than I guess you're looking for, but it plays Xvid and DivX and a bunch of other formats. Just burn stuff you download onto CDs and this can handle it.
If you are connecting to a TV with component inputs, you will get a better picture from a progressive scan DVD player.
both my dad and my girlfriend have that magnavox one. my dad's had his over a year with no problems. it works great and also reads all the burned dvds that i feed it. it's less then 50 bucks i'd definitely go for that.
I've had problems w/ Cyberhome. Got one free from my bank, and one that records DVDs. Both have had issues.
