Toshiba SD 780 - DVD player - upscaling Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The region-free hack is poorly executed. Item arrives with a manual in English and, I guess, Russian (not the usual English/Spanish/French). From the start it was incapable of playing from the point stopped after being put on standby. All I could do was write down the minutes and fastforward from the start each time. Later, with no input from me, it set itself to the strictest child setting, so refused to play a rental DVD of the Lost series, instead asking for a password I couldn't possibly guess. Trying anything to get around this, I hit "reset defaults." This done, my HDTV refused to recognize the machine, pleading "Mode unknown." So I left it in my condo lobby with a "free" sign.
The bright side? It's picture output was superb, much better than the 1080p Samsung player I bought to replace it. If only I could find a region hack for the Samsung.

(More customer reviews)It will play just about anything including Divx avis (the player is Divx Ultra certified), MKVs, Xvid avis, VCDs, SVCDs, music cds, etc. Lotsa stuff the Curtis 1102 won't play. Also, unlike the Curtis this unit has SPDIF and Optical audio outputs and component video outputs as well as HDMI output. It's NTSC and PAL compatible. To use the USB port to play files, you have to push the "media center" button on the remote. Pretty fast on loading both DVDs and Blu-Ray discs. Also remembers your place on DVDs if you remove them. Something the Curtis doesn't have. Also plays AVCHDs. Files on discs and through the USB port are identified by their name, codec, running time and pixel size.
