I just got one of those dvd players that plays EVERYTHING...
 

fucking sony and their obvious hate towards anything burned...I had to get a second dvd player

this one plays DVD-Video (NTSC, PAL, P-SCAN), audio CD, VCD, CD-R, CD-RW, SVCD, JPG CD, MP3 CD, MPEG CD, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW

also it plays both NTSC and PAL

this thing will seriously play anything, and videohelp.com rates it as one of the better ones

and I got it for $30...LOL

Me too! Best thing to hit the 'center

no shit, and I will tell you what, it actually has some better features than my $200 sony dvd player...

I just can't get over that it was $30...LOL

my ex has the exact same cyberhome dvd player.good quality too for the price

those cheap ass ones play anything but usually don't last very long. apex is the main one i think.

does it play VHS?

Amazing how cheap electronics are these days, Just a few years ago they were 10x more

i don't even thing I own any VHS...LOL

oh wait, yeah I do...I have one single vhs tape....The Devil In Miss Jones

Where did you get it from .. Costco?

Mine plays every format under the sun, but I have to get it modified because it's not region-independant, so now I can't play all my North American dvds :1orglaugh

Pretty cool.

I got the Toshiba dvd player/burner that reads everything and writes to everything. That way I don't have to worry about +r or -r or +-rw or whatever.

It's basically TIVO without the fees. You just program it to record your tv shows...and if you use RAM discs, you can watch a program while you record it, pause it, and do everything else TIVO can do. Pretty sweet.

Lately I've been watching more tv shows and movies on Windows Media Center on my computer though.

Mainly after hacking the firmware ...

Goodbye region codes, macrovision and so on ...

My philips plays everything I throw at it, love it :)

we prolly have the same model. sometimes mine just fucking turns off though. pisses me off

Burning data onto discs is sooooo 1900's. This is what I use. Plays all formats straight from my computer to the HDTV.

Jace: I noticed divx and mp4 missing from that list... :)

I played a divx last night, so I knwo that works

and I don't even own an mp4, so that isn't a worry

well, we have the dual tuner directivo, and that is only $5 a month....so we can actually record 2 shows at once from the same tv...and it is all one unit, so you control everything from the single control panel in the tivo

SACD is awesome if you liked the warm round sounds of vinyl.
