Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Proving that big performance doesn't necessarily mean "big ticket," Panasonic's DVD-S25K DVD player handles standard DVD-Video, DVD-R, CD-R and CD-RW, MP3-encoded CDs, and even JPEG picture discs. A handy feature called Quick Replay jumps back seven to 10 seconds in case you miss an important bit of action or dialogue, while high-resolution 24-bit/192 kHz audio processing and 10-bit/54 MHz video processing ensure vivid sound and picture from all compatible sources.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVD-S25K features a progressive-scan video processor that doubles the scan lines of an interlaced signal (from 480i to 480p) by scanning all 525 lines in 1/60 of a second for each pass. The result? Higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. A composite-video input offers compatibility with nearly all televisions; use a video modulator (not included) if you have an older TV with only a threaded coaxial audio/video input.

The unit offers audio features like Dialogue Enhancer (which boosts the volume of the center channel during Dolby Digital 5.1-channel presentations) and a coaxial digital-audio output for channeling DTS and Dolby Digital surround sound to a surround-decoding audio/video receiver. Also included are Hi-Speed Smooth-Motion Scan (which enables fast-forward/reverse at up to 200 times normal speed, offering a quick way to access desired scenes), repeat play, random play, track programming, and resume play (which picks up right from the point where you stopped, current disc only).

What's in the Box
DVD player, remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, and a stereo analog audio interconnect/composite-video cable.

1 out of 5 stars Worthless.......2005-12-04

This is my second panasonic dvd player. The first one started freezing after about a year of consistant use. Well, needless to say, I didn't learn from my mistakes. I bought this model and after about a year it froze. I have tried cleaning them both with a dvd/cd player cleaning disc. Neither dvd player will even read the disc. I held on to the other one just in case. I just threw both of them in the garbage. I will not buy anything panasonic again!

This dvd really didn't have anything special on it either. It played discs fine until it died! There isn't a big display screen; it isn't fancy at all. For the price of something like this, you can find a better model, make, and quality at a cheaper price. This thing is useless.

1 out of 5 stars mine's dead.......2005-05-02

had this model for about 16 months, it was nice... now it can't seem to find its place in the disk... its spins and whirs and jumps around the disk like a monkey... then plays 10 seconds of the video and does it all again. I've tried many disks, cleaning the lens, etc... its headed for the dumpster

2 out of 5 stars won't play video discs.......2004-11-18

For all this money, this unit is nothing special, It don't play SVCD or VCD movies.These are movies usually burned to CD-r discs. from a home computer.

1 out of 5 stars Plays for 20 min. then freezes.......2004-10-24

I received this S25 for father's day. It played well for about 3 mo.Then it started freezing (error U11) which says disc is dirty.Cleaned it...samr thing happened. Tried all my DVD's and apparantly they are all dirty. Panasonic won't help me. Some people have advised me to use the CD cleaner to clean the lenses.I have never received H02 or any H errors. Please e-mail me with your input.Thanks Bluecat33@aol.com

5 out of 5 stars Good one.......2004-10-20

I bought this dvd player about 2 months ago and its been working good so far. I played about 10 dvd's and few MP3 discs in it till now. And I never had any problem. I can't comment on recommending this product to others yet because I myself didnot use it much so far.But for the price$56 its best compatible one with my Sharp TV so far.
