Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Panasonic's DVD-RP62K offers a cool combination of features and quality. DVDs look great on both standard and high-definition (HD) televisions, thanks to the RP62K's multiple video outputs--crowned by its stunning progressive-scan video output when used with an HD or HD-ready set.

Video Features
Whether you currently have HDTV capabilities or you're merely thinking of "someday," the RP62K stands ready to deliver. 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 higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. Other features include Cinema Mode, cutting down glare and improving color resolution in a darkened living room, Quick Replay, which jumps back seven to 10 seconds, variable zoom, which converts any widescreen image to full screen on a 4:3 aspect-ratio TV (eliminating the black bands at the top and bottom of the screen), and high-speed smooth scan.

Audio Features
The RP62K is compatible with standard CDs, audio CD-Rs and CD-RWs, and discs encoded with MP3 or WMA (Windows Media) audio files. The player even offers an onscreen audio navigation menu for searching for MP3 and WMA files (and it works with CD-Rs that feature multisession recordings). A 192 kHz/24-bit digital-to-analog converter ensures optimal decoding of all disc formats. RP62K is also equipped with an optical digital-audio output to feed a surround-sound signal to your Dolby Digital-decoding or DTS-decoding AV receiver, as well as a dedicated subwoofer output to let you enjoy those dinosaur stomps and timpani rolls to the fullest with but one additional speaker (see all subwoofers). If your subwoofer is hooked up to the player's dedicated subwoofer output, Bass Plus jacks up the low end.

To further round out the stereo experience, Advanced Surround (V.S.S.) simulates surround-sound effects using only two speakers, dynamic range compression limits the peak levels of Dolby Digital-encoded programs (found on most DVDs), and the Dialogue Enhancer increases the relative volume of the center channel, making center-channel content easier to hear.

Connections
In the video realm, you get the works: standard composite-video, S-video, and premium component-video outputs. The latter, of course, can be switched to deliver either 480i or 480p (progressive-scan) video. A single optical digital-audio output channels stereo and multichannel surround signals to your receiver, and the player also has a single set of stereo RCA analog audio outputs.

Product Description:
Have a seat. You're about to enter the digital dimension. Inside the DVD-RP62K, you'll find a digital Cinema Mode that combines brightness control with picture noise canceling. The result is a clear and crisp image that appears on your screen. Built-in Advanced Surround (V.S.S.) and Bass Plus provide channel surround sound that will blow back your hair. It's like going to the movies or a big concert without ever leaving your home. That's the digital dimension.

2 out of 5 stars Will never buy a panasonic again.......2007-01-07

I got the HO7 error code too -- supposedly means the motor has a problem. I've had this DVD player for about 4 years. I expect them to last longer than that. Also, I'm sick of the machine's delayed DVD eject -- you have to wait like 5 seconds for the DVD to eject after you push the button.

2 out of 5 stars H07 error-me too!.......2006-03-10

Yes, my Panasonic DVD player just died today (3/9/06) after a long and illustrious life of 1 1/2 years. I would not call that durable. It did well while it worked, but it's gone now!

1 out of 5 stars HO7.......2005-06-13

I was pleased with a friend of mine that got a Panasonic DVD player. I bought this player brand new. The manufacture is Sept. of 2002. I think I got it between Thanksgiving and Christmas that year. I liked it to some degree. However agreed with others that the buttons are small and hard to find. It was about 6 months ago that I started noticing the picture was not as sharp as it was. The moving pictures would get "lines" in them like it was interference or something. This was very noticeable when I would pause, FF, RW, or stop the movie. It was like it was having trouble "tracking" the object(s) on the screen. I have a brand new digital big screen TV so I know that was not the problem. Then just tonight I was watching a movie and it just stopped. I hit the eject button and nothing would happen. I then had to turn the unit off and then back on. It was not overheating or hot to the touch. It kept seeing error H07. I followed the instructions to how to clear the issue up and that did not help. Now I am in the market, even more so, for another DVD player. After reading all the other reviews on the H07 error that others are getting, I am to know I am not the only one with that issue. It might be just a matter of time before the other DVD players would come up with the same problem. Maybe they would not do that at all. I know that I am not the only one that got a defective DVD player after three years it died. I will have my funeral for it and go replace it ASAP. I do not think that I would get another of this brand however.

Stay away from this machine. The minute you get the "HO7" error, you will regret ever spending a penny on it. I need to buy a new player now, at a time I can least afford it!
