Enjoy highest-quality images that are free from annoying blank spots on the LCD screen. LCD displays commonly have imperfections, termed as 'bright dots' by the LCD industry.

Rating:
- Very good player
I really recommend this DVD. My son just love it. It's simple and user friendly. That's all I needed.
Rating:
- lots of good features; what does mpeg4 really mean?
A lot of good features but rather heavy.Advertised to play "MPEG4" which is similar to MP4 format used in Video Ipod devices or Zune (assuming file of course, is not copy protected.)No one seems to have commented WHETHER a non-copy protected mp4 video on a DVD (not DVD formatted) which would play directly on a video ipod will play on PET824.
Rating:
- Very noisy
Overall decent, nothing exceptional to brag about.
Main gripe is it's extremely loud motor.
It also takes forever to recognize DVDs and start playing.
Have only had 2 weeks, will see what else comes up.

- Works great so far!

It s definitely a great idea to ... Read More
