Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Sony DVP-NS78 - DVD Player With HDMI & 1080P Upscaling Comment: Very nice item. Easy to use and install. Super quality and produces excellent results with a good TV. Well worth the money. I am glad I bought mine when I did as the recently prices have gone up. Customer Rating: Summary: Very Good DVD Player (Plays Region 1 too) Comment: Highly recommended for anyone wanting a uncomplicated great quality DVD Player. The up scaling is extremely good, and it is already Multi-Region. Mine plays Region 2 as well as Region 1 discs. There is unfortunately one word of caution however this doesn't affect the product's rating: This machine is sold by Pixmania and they are based in France. The machine therefore does not come with an English Manual or English Plug. They don't even provide an adapter, so if you do buy this you will have to replace the plug with a UK one. For the price though, a UK model will set you back about £30 more on Play.com, so it's still worth while! Customer Rating: Summary: Great DVD but be aware of a few points Comment: Just to add two points to the reviews on this DVD. It is an excellent DVD for the price but: It comes with four instruction booklets, none of them are in English. You can download the instructions off the internet, but if you're buying this for someone who may not have internet access be aware of this. It comes with HDMI 'off'. Ie if you buy an HDMI cable, be aware you have to go into the controls of the DVD (which you need the instructions to do) and set it to 'on', otherwise it won't work. It works fine with SCART if you have those and don't want to spend on an HDMI cable. Customer Rating: Summary: Still remarkable at twice the price point Comment: This piece of technology is a slim, unobtrusive addition to your TV stand that will truly transform your DVD collection. Accepting that the price difference of Blue R and ordinary DVDs remains significant AND the price of a BR player is still high, this upscaler provides a meaningful compromise. Only the most discerning movie watcher will notice the BR/Upscaled DVD differences. Until the prices of BR technology reduces this is an excellent product at 2 or 3 times the price point. Removing the region code is a simple task, although be very careful regarding sites which offer codes which do not work. And finally, for the best results do use a full 1080p TV. While very capable on lower specifications, the higher quality is worth the experience. Customer Rating: Summary: Highly recommended player Comment: I sold my xbox 360 HD player as soon as i heard that HD had lost the format war, no big deal for me as i only had a couple of HD films anyway, i now needed a decent player to hook up to my 40" Bravia, i could have gone the whole hog and gone for a blu-ray player, but i dont really watch enough DVD's to warrant the cost, so went for, in my opinion, the next best thing, an upscaling DVD player, i have to say, the picture quality via HDMI is EXCELLENT, after trying a few DVD's i was amazed at how good the picture was that this player puts out, if like me, your not quite ready to jump on the Blu-ray band wagon, you cant go far wrong with this player for £70.00 More Reviews
