Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Samsung's DVD-P241 features high-end progressive-scan component-video outputs, built-in MP3 decoding for your home-brewed CD compilations, and even compatibility with JPEG image CDs and Kodak Picture CDs. Now you can enjoy a slideshow of your digital pictures right on your television.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVD-P241 stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

The DVD-P241 also performs 3:2 pulldown. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24-frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture. Another handy feature is the player's EZ View letterbox eliminator, which lets you enjoy full-screen pictures on 4:3 aspect-ratio TVs--even when you're watching widescreen DVDs.

A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. Composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television.

2 out of 5 stars Walter B Reed = slave to the Samsung Corporation.......2007-01-02

Having recently replaced my BetaMax cassette player with this hunk of junk, I learned that it is not "Not bad", as W.B. Reed gushes, but rather would serve well as an oversized paperweight. It performed so poorly, I took a poop in the DVD tray and sent it back to Samsung. They were less than pleased with my "statement", but I think we've all learned our lessons: They will stop making bad electronics, and I will stop pooping in them.

5 out of 5 stars amazing product.......2006-10-20

yes, I proudly own it and would not trade it for anything else in the world. trust me, go buy it now and u will never regret it, its worth every penny.

5 out of 5 stars Never had a problem with it........2006-03-28

I've owned this DVD player for over a year now and it has never gave me a problem. The component hook-up really makes the quality of the picture much better. A little better than S-video. However, I have an HDTV so now I have to buy a 1080i High Definition up conversion player. I am so satisfied with this one I will be sure to purchase a SAMSUNG.

2 out of 5 stars Looking for a replacement.......2005-06-05

Pretty easy to set up and use, but it stalls half the time. I generally prefer to watch movies WITHOUT it locking up every 5-10 minutes. I'm definitely looking for a new DVD player. I don't recommend the P241 to anyone.

1 out of 5 stars surprise its junk.......2005-02-16

i bought one of these dvd players and fell in love with letterbox eliminator and the excellent picture and sound it played several dvds well but then about aweek after owning it it started to severly skip on every dvd old or new so i had amazon send another once again after a few days it started skipping and theres no reason to pay more for a sony and thier([precision drive 3) the sonys skipped even more! i recently bought a zenith thin line dvd player for $50 bucks and so far so good its picture and sound is great and it hasnt skipped so aslong as it doesnt severly skip in the future im going to keep it but beware panasonic samsung sony all have 1 thing in common regardless of price they skip the sonys also are very loud and load slowly like an old pc you can count to 10 after hitting play on a sony before it loads then halfway through a movie it skips just like the others shame on sony for selling overpriced dvd players that work no better than a noname brand and shame on samsung for not correcting known problems and continuing to sell defective players on amazon and i wont even shame cybertron they make such awful dvd players i actually pity them lmao i guess when you work for 50 cents a year youre not exactly happy at the factory and the result is a dvd player thats reliable as a square tire ok even at 10 dollars i couldnt recommend the cybertron cause you would have a 10 dollar non working metal box and trying to find customer support for cybertron is like trying to freakin find hoffa ok now lets hope the zenith keeps working well

5 out of 5 stars the player is great.......2006-03-29

[...] the unit is very slim (very low profile) and silver. I was after a basic DVD player for my kids to use and this fits the bill perfectly. They (my kids) tend to be ham-fisted with DVD players and TV's, etc., and this one has already demonstrated its ability to tolerate their nature.
