Samsung DVDC600 5-Disc DVD Player
Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Samsung's DVDC600 DVD player is an affordable multidisc machine that holds up to five discs. It plays DVDs and CDs, so even if you're not inclined to use the DVDC600 for marathon movie sessions, this versatile carousel player is great for playing music CDs.
The DVDC600 outputs Dolby Digital and DTS signals. The player incorporates a 10-bit video digital-to-analog converter and a 96 kHz, 24-bit audio digital-to-analog converter for superior sound and images. It also has a dynamic range compression switch for late-night listening, as well as a 3-D sound mode for a simulated surround effect.
Other features include 2x audio scan, parental lock, and black-level expansion for superior video contrast. The DVDC600 also offers a disc view feature, which displays the beginning scene of each DVD track or chapter. You can also display nine views simultaneously with the index view feature.
The front panel is very extensive. In addition to open, exchange, and disc skip buttons, you can program, clear, and activate random play from the front-panel buttons. The front panel also incorporates play/pause, track skip, and stop buttons. There's also a jog-shuttle dial in the upper right corner, which enables you to advance DVDs with ease from frame to frame. A small LED light indicates when the player is in standby mode. Five lights to the left of the main display indicate which of the five discs is currently in play mode.
The main display is as impressive as the front-panel controls. A Saturn-like icon lights up to show which disc is playing. Another indicator shows whether it's a DVD, audio, or video CD. Logos for DTS and Dolby Digital indicate the format. The main display shows disc title, chapter, and elapsed time. It also shows whether the repeat function is on. There's also an icon showing whether the parental lock function is active. Finally, a grid of squares shows the tracks or chapters for a given disc.
The rear panel offers coaxial and optical digital-audio outputs; unfortunately, they're very close together, which poses a problem for some cables with extra-wide plugs. In addition to the digital-audio outputs, the DVDC600 has two pairs of analog stereo outputs. Samsung thoughtfully provides two composite-video outputs, plus an S-Video out and a set of component-video jacks.
The full-function joystick-style remote control is smartly laid out, with the main functions arranged like spokes around a wheel in the center. The enter button rests in the middle as part of the joystick, which is less finicky than most joystick remotes. Three large buttons above the joystick offer access to the player's functions and the DVD disc menu. Below the joystick, you'll find quick-access buttons for audio, subtitle, and camera angle. Large play, pause, and stop buttons are centrally located and easy to find, as are the chapter skip, fast-forward, and rewind buttons. The universal remote control can also be programmed to operate most TVs, and has buttons for channel skip, volume, and channel number keys, which can also be used to program discs.
An oversize platter slides open with the touch of the remote or front-panel button, enabling you to load your favorite discs. An exchange button allows you to load discs while a DVD or CD is playing without interrupting the movie or music.
Although you can play random discs through the DVDC600, like other multidisc DVD players, it does not allow you to play random tracks from disc to disc.

Customer Reviews:
A lot for the money as currently ($$$).......2001-12-18
As you read the overview here on Amazon notice that it does have a very complete feature set and as currently ($$$) represents a heck of a deal. Remote is well laid out and operats cleanly. It is nice to be able to mix and match DVD's and CD's as I doubt I will have a marathon with 5 DVD's - hey maybe if I am really board...:-)
The unit has all the various inputs and outputs you could use and produces a very nice picture, especially through the component outputs.
There is not much difference between this and the 601 so if you are looking for a lot of features for minimal $$ this is a great player. I have other Samsung gear and have not had a problem as well with any of it but I usually buy their mid range gear.
I view this as a good utility player where you can put in one or two movies and your favorite CD's and extend the party without having to load and re-load the player.
better than I expected.......2001-11-29
Beware!.......2001-07-24
