Re: Upconverting Question

I recently bought one of those $60 Sylvania BR players from Amazon (Funai built - like the Mag the O.P. is considering). I also have a Yamaha DVD-S1800 and Oppo DV-981HD (both with Faroudja chips). ...

re: Last BD or 4K UHD disc you watched?

Pandorum

Had a number of poor reviews, but I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. Very taut, tense Sci-fi/Horror flick. Ben Foster did a good job as lead for a relatively unknown actor (was...

Re: Sylvania NB530SLX Blu-ray Disc Player $74.63 @Amazon

Just grabbed one at that price. The Funai built players are actually pretty reliable and BR image quality is fine for such a cheap player.

Re: I told an eBay customer of mine to boil the DVD...

This reminds me of the threads I saw last year about baking your dead/dying Nvidia video cards in the oven for five minutes to bring them back to life.

Re: Amazon Prime Trial Part 2 - Another Free 3 Months!

I'd pop for Prime (and did) without a free trial. I use Amazon for almost everything I buy and it's really nice to get stuff in two days.

Re: The oldest DVD play you own and does it still work?

Mine are pretty recent:

Yamaha DVD-S1800
Oppo DV-981HD

Both 2007 models, but purchased in 2009.

Yamaha DVD-S1800 $79.99 at Amazon

You'll have to search Amazon for this one, I don't have the requisite post count to let me link a web site. Considering it started out at $449 a couple years ago this is a very good deal.

This is...

Re: Last DVD you watched?

Solaris (2002). Really interesting, well done movie. I like Sci-Fi that makes you think.

Re: HDMI DVD player help (I'm totally ignorant about these things)

If the O.P. is still checking this thread try turning off sharpness altogether on both the TV and the DVD player (if it has that setting). Do the same for noise reduction. The fewer "enhancement"...

Re: Last DVD you watched?

Just watched 2005's War of the Worlds again. Its actually quite a good movie (if you can overlook Dakota Fanning's incessant screaming).

Re: Buyer's Remorse

That just kills me. I bought a copy of "Stander" with Thomas Jane (great "based on real life" crime drama set in South Africa) from an Amazon seller for $9. Three days after I got it I saw it at...

Re: do you think blu ray will over take dvds?

I bought a BR player on Black Friday (Toshiba BDX2000 from Amazon for $79.97). I make an attempt to watch BR whenever I can, but a quick look at my Netflix queue shows out of about 175 titles half...

Re: Buyer's Remorse

I'm a Big Lots bargain bin diver as well. Just recently found "Stander" with Thomas Jane and "Gosford Park" for $3 a piece.

I honestly don't see myself purchasing BR discs (even though I got a...

Re: What's The Latest DVD You Bought (Part VI)

I was digging through the $3 movies at Big Lots and found a double DVD of "Diner" and "Liberty Heights". I enjoyed Barry Levinson's "Baltimore" movies and hadn't seen either in a long time. For el...

Re: Last DVD you watched?

10,000 BC. Perfectly adequate way to spend a Sunday night. Story was pretty ho-hum, but the movie looked very nice. I can somewhat excuse a bad story if they give me something nice to look at.

Re: Any cheap upconverting/region free DVD players out there right now?

Amazon.com has a great deal on a Yamaha DVD-S1800 - $79.99 new. Very good upscaling via Faroudja (I've owned two Oppos, it beats the DV-981HD and matches the DV-980H imo), great audio, plays almost...
