3 out of 5 stars ok dvd player, crappy remote.......2007-06-11

This dvd player is alright. Picture and sound quality are good, especially considering the cheap price. However, the one big drawback is the remote, this thing is tiny and the buttons are not very responsive.

5 out of 5 stars Reliable and Good Performance.......2007-06-10

This DVD Player is great! Works for all regions, and it is compact. I've used it a lot and carried it to different places. No problems. I tested several dvd discs from different regions and they all work! Much better than those named brand like Sony.

1 out of 5 stars Glitchy product.......2007-05-17

We purchase the Coby DVD-537 5.1 Channel DVD Player with Progressive Scan thinking we were getting a good deal for the price however within one night we regretted our purchase.

The Coby will not allow our TV to play Closed Caption and the subtitles from the player kept missing whole converstations. This is a very negative feature for a deaf person or those who watch tv using captions/subtitles.

The picture was quite grainy compared to our last DVD player.

The Coby remote kept glitching our sound system (we have a seperate sound system with it's own remote). We finally had to cover the sound system with a heavy towel to prevent the Coby remote from constantly ajusting the sounds up and down.

When I placed a call to Coby Electronics about their product, their response was lackluster and there were no offers to help, compenstate or even thank me for letting them know. All they said was for the price we paid, glitches are to be expected.

Thankfully a call to Amazon much more satisfying and I was able to return the DVD player for a different one.

5 out of 5 stars Coby DVD-537 5.1 Channel DVD Player with Progressive Scan.......2007-04-10

I am very happy with this DVD player so far. It is nice and small which is what we were looking for. Very easy to use too. My 5 year old son can manage to use it on his own. Also the price was right

Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Stopped working after 4 months!.......2007-06-05

Do not get this DVD Player. It's been only 4 months and this player is now completely dead. I've used it a dozen times over the past few months. Also, it has the worst remote I've seen on any electronic device ever.
It's junk. Spend extra cash and get a real dvd player.

1 out of 5 stars Don't bother buying!.......2007-05-25

It freezes up in the middle of the movie, and the remote doesn't work even though I changed the batteries. It's very frustrating, and I have contacted Coby support even though I've found that DVD-514 has been discontinued. I'm not sure they will reply on a discontinued product.

2 out of 5 stars Worst remote control ever........2007-05-16

This is lightweight, which is good. It plays most (not all) of the CD/DVD types that it claims to, and does a pretty good job with them, with occasional skipping issues...

But the remote control is the WORST. You have to press the keys incredibly hard to get them to work at all, and if you're not within three feet of the device you have to press the keys more than once.

I would avoid this, unless you already have a programmable remote control. If so, throw away the remote that comes with it and use your own. You'll spare yourself strained fingers and muttered curses.

3 out of 5 stars Remote not as shown.......2007-05-07

I specifically did not want one of those credit card size, flat, non ergonomic remote controls. My thought is that the DVD would be used in a darkened room, and I do no want to have to turn on a light to read a DVD and try to use those tiny buttons. As soon as I opened the box and saw the remote control, I sealed the box and sent it back. I talked to Amazon.com and they saw the mis-representation and were very apologetic about it. I returned it immediately. Perhaps by now, the onsite picture has been corrected.

5 out of 5 stars Just as expected.......2007-03-20

This DVD player is working well for us.

Has all the inputs for my "older" 5.1 receiver and puts the sound just where it should.

The remote is cheap, credit card type. Although, what do you expect for ~ $35.

Only, downside is there is not a fast forward or reverse. You can slow down play and you can go to the next chapter or the last.

Overall, it's cheap, disposable, and suited our needs.

Good luck.

      Tech Talk
      Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

      4 out of 5 stars Coby DVD Recorder that works..........2007-02-23

      We had two other "inexpensive" dvd players that died recently and needed to replace them. This unit jumped out at me for three reasons, the ability to record to DVD, built-in TV tuner and the price. Setup was pretty simple and now the kids can watch their DVDs again. The recording quality of this unit is "ok". The unit has three different types of inputs: CABLE, RCA and S-Video, so it should work for most situtations. I gave the unit 4 stars, because it is not a high-priced or high-quality system and it met my low to medium quality device expectations.

      1 out of 5 stars didn't work out.......2007-01-04

      This Coby product arrived defective: power would come on but unit would not function. Otherwise, Coby products are great and this unit would have had great "bang for the buck". In fact, after reading the manual I have to say that this product would have been too advanced for this user.

        1 out of 5 stars System is Horrible .......2007-06-26

        This system is the most unfriendly system that I ever operated. The unit has no controls except eject, play and stop. The track button and skip feature are on the remote only. The remote has a 1 second delay when a button is pressed causing you to take 5 minutes to get to a track and repeatedly miss the track that you want. On the remote, the skip and advance buttons are the same and we had a very difficult time with advancing to the next track since the unit wanted to keep skipping through the songs instead. We also had a problem with the unit skipping involuntarily through the CD's we were using but when we played the CD's on another unit, they worked fine. Very Very disappointed in this item !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 Star !!

        1 out of 5 stars Terrible Karaoke Machine.......2007-02-08

        I purchased this mainly to have a karaoke system that would connect to my existing entertainment system. I was extremely disappointed in the performance of this item. The main reason for my dissatisfaction is the sound of the microphone. There is way too much "echo" on the voice & no way to adjust it. I will end up using this as a DVD player in my camper since it's size makes it very portable. Don't waste your money on this. Purchase another machine if your looking for a cheap karaoke console.

        3 out of 5 stars It's OK for the price.......2007-01-07

        I only give it 3 stars because the machine works all right but there are a few things that I don't like:
        (+) Price is right
        (+) Works OK as a DVD Player
        (+) Karaoke works fine (need to turn the TV volume up to hear your voice well)
        (+) Comes with a microphone which is about $10 value
        (-) Doesn't play all DVDs (machine is too sensitive to read old or slightly scratched discs)
        (-) Doesn't play DVD subtitles that can be switched off right
        (-) Takes a little longer to load some DVDs
        (-) Makes noise when reading a disc
        (-) The remote control isn't user friendly
        I use the machine mainly as a Karaoke machine and to play VCDs. In general, it's fine for the price.

        1 out of 5 stars Cheaply made.......2006-12-17

        We thought this would be a great idea for our 7-year-old girl who loves to sing. It would be a great idea if it worked. The disks play fine but no matter what we did, you could barely hear voices throught the mic and what we did hear was delayed, like an echo. The remote was difficult to navigate, very poorly made.

        We have searched high and low for a karaoke player that works. We thought this was the answer, but the search continues.

        We are sending this one back! At least Amazon makes it easy to return!

        5 out of 5 stars Great product.......2007-05-12

        This DVD recorder is awesome. We have family videos from 26 years ago & are in the process of copying them to DVD's. The set up was easy & so far everything is working great with no problems. It has some neat features so that you can enter titles for your DVD's & label them, etc.

        2 out of 5 stars Great when it would work........2007-03-25

        When I first turned it on it would power up, but wouldn't do anything. Coby customer service tried to tell me it was because I used the component out instead of the av cables from the box. While on the phone the picture finally came on. Dvds looked great on it until it froze. Froze while playing from the hard drive. I sent it back.

        2 out of 5 stars Worked well, until it didn't work.......2007-03-24

        I purchased this in December 2006. I wasn't thrilled with how all of the features worked, but it did do everything as advertised. Once I became accustomed to the limitations of this machine, I was actually happy with it. However, about 90 days after purchasing the recorder, which comes with a 90 day warranty, the DVD drive completely died. The rest of the machine still works, but what am it's not worth much any more. I guess I should have bought a better brand name with a longer warranty.

        3 out of 5 stars Works fine; poor user interface.......2007-03-02

        The unit works fine and offers a wide range of capability, good capacity and accepts lots of different inputs. The user interface and controls are very poorly done. The unit remembers nothing so you have to keep track of where you are in a program that isn't fully viewed in one sitting. Frequently used functions are buried so that several entries are needed to program, play, fast forward and what have you. The controller is of poor quality and I fear won't last long. Otherwise, seems a fine unit but the poor interface would have prevented me from buying it if I had known of it in advance.

        Tech Talk
        Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

        4 out of 5 stars A great deal.......2007-05-14

        This DVD player is a good choice if you want something cheap that, perhaps, you won't be using all the time. I bought this for my exercise room so I can do exercise videos and it's perfect for that purpose. It was easy to use...just plugged it in and it was ready to go. The only problem I have with it is the remote control - I often have to press the buttons several times before the player responds. It's annoying, but not enough to make me send it back.

        4 out of 5 stars Works on all sorts of DVD's - remote is weak.......2007-02-06

        Very good DVD player, plays all sorts of DVDs, which is what I was looking for. The remote layout is odd, and not intuitive, plus it is weak (tried 3 sets of batteries) and you have to line up and stand within 7 feet to make the remote work the DVD player. However, this is a very good machine compared to the SONY I overpaid for. :*)

        5 out of 5 stars So easy a 6 year old can do it........2007-01-27

        I got this for my son for his 6th birthday. He has it down, the drawer works easy, the digital readings are easy for him to read and understand. The remote control is larger than our other DVD players with larger buttons so he manages it easy. This one is so easy a 6 year old can do it.
