Keep looking...unless you want a disposable DVD player........2003-09-06

I'm glad to see that I am not the only one who has had problems with this machine. It worked great for months (but much less than a year) then suddenly it would no longer play discs. I took the cover off to see if there was anything I could possibly fix and a piece had totally come loose, the main part responsible for spinning the disc. Needless to say it was beyond my help. It's dumpster material now. Please don't waste your money, too.

Disposable DVD player-.......2002-11-25

This dvd player worked fine for about 7 months starting last January, and then started to exhibit a small amount of occasional skipping, and would freeze up every so often. Player would become frighteningly hot during/after playing a movie. It is now fully non-functional, a movie will skip constantly- there is no point to even try to play one. All of the reviews are true, this machine is an honest LEMON. Amazon.com needs to add a no-star rating, one star was far too generous.

horrible!.......2002-10-02

Skips/Freezes on disks. Just when you get into a movie it will freeze/skip so horribly that you cannont continue watching. We didn't discover this until after the 6 month warranty ran out and Philips' solution was for us to pay ...for them to replace it with the same defective model. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

Great at first, but now...?.......2002-09-20

This machine ran fine for a while then we started having problems with it skipping repeatedly and freezing. You can't get the disk out when it has frozen...you have to wait for it to finish "thinking" and that is so annoying! Some days, it works fine, then a rash of skipping and freezing again. Plus, it tends to overheat..the disks would come out very, very warm. Right now, it plays the disk, but there is no sound, so the kids are having to watch their movies on the computer DVD-rom. I think my husband would agree, this player doesn't hold up at all.

Don't even bother.............2002-08-31

I just was recently given this DVD player as a christmas gift. The DVD player worked perfict with great video and stereo sound when I got it, and only skipped on a few DVD's. Then in augest the DVD player just suddenly decided it didn't want to turn on anymore, and now I'm stuck with a broken DVD player. I tried to replace the fuse in the player but it still didn't want to turn on, and when I tried to contact Magnavox support, they had nothing on this issue. In my opinion, this player isn't worth your time.

If you even paid $1.00 for this out of the bargin box at a Garage sale, your being ripped off. It Takes FOREVER to load and play DVD's and follow commands. freezes in the middle of Movies, and doesn't play CD-Rs. (...) Never again will I buy a Philips brand anything I was so dissatisfied.

ALGUIEN SABE SI ESTE DVD ES MULTIZONA, ES DECIR, SI LEE ZONE 1 AND ZONE 4 (LATINAMERICAN).?
GRACIAS

It plays...DVDs!.......2003-07-08

This player does not seem to hold up after much time. It has trouble reading some discs now and when it does takes a long time. Okay, so it's a Philips and it is complete garbage. With what's out there now that's cheaper and better, I give this one 2 stars.

I have found this to be an good player for DVD's but not much else. A few things on some of these reviews are just not true for this player, and I have tested these formats and been successful:

-Video CD (VCD): ONLY ON CD-RW'S- It does play, even has a light up icon that says "VCD", just doesn't play very well- will fail to load sometimes and may skip
-DVD-R's: The ones I've tested work perfect every time, don't know about DVD-RW's yet

So, this is not the greatest of players ...

very good.......2003-04-30

I read some of the other reviews and just do not not see what is wrong. I would say that this is a very good D.V.D player. I bought a little over a year and a half ago.And it has always been fast effective and done it job. A must buy and very,very underated. Buy this D.V.D player

I wouldn't buy it again.......2003-04-22

In my experience, it's a okay player for the price (purchased a year and a half ago). No complaints about the design of the remote, and the player has has some cool features (like zoom). My biggest gripe is really just a nuisance: it takes forever to load. Occasionally, however, it will freeze completely, and none of the controls on the machine or the remote will work, including power, eject, etc. I have to unplug it and then plug it in again. That's why I've given it two stars instead of three. If I were to go back in time, I wouldn't buy it again. I spend a little more and get something better. On the other hand, if you don't mind a long wait for your DVD to load or having to unplug it to reset it sometimes--it's never happened to me *during* a movie--it might be [economical]enough to consider if price is the most important factor.
