Fantastic Product For The Price.

I bought one of these after purchasing my first HD TV. My regular 10 year old Hitachi DVD player just looked horrible on it so I took a suggestion from my friend and set out to find a good deal on an upconverting one. I had never purchased a Magnavox product prior to this one and for the price I really didn't know what to expect but I thought for the price I had to try it out. The set up is easy and I immediately noticed a drastic difference. The upconversion on this thing looks fantastic on my 46 Inch Panasonic Viera. It's almost as clear as HD content from cable HD channels. Almost, which is what you should expect, it obviously can never be full HD since the data is not on the disc to make it full hd. Those saying the upconversion sucks are clearly expecting too much, this isn't a blue ray player. All in all this can't be beat for the price and I'll definitely keep Magnavox in mind for future purchases.

Great Upconverting DVD Player

What a bargain! I hooked this thing up to a 46" 1080p LCD television, and have so far watched DVD's in both widescreen and letterbox format. I would not have believed how well this player upcoverts if I had not seen it with my own eyes. I won't go so far as to say it's just as clear as BluRay, but it is really close, even sitting eight feet in front of a 46" 1080p screen. Sure, it's not quite BluRay, but it means that my DVD collection is not obsolete after all, as I feared it would be. In fact, I have actually started buying DVD's again, instead of paying more for BluRay's, because I know now that I can watch them on this player, and lose very little video quality.

Just remember that you must use an HDMI cable to get the best picture, and make sure that your TV is receiving a 1080p signal from the player. (Or 720p if your television is only 720p)

If there is one complaint, it is that the movie you are watching will not automatically start where you left off when you ejected the disc. I have owned much lesser, and older, DVD players which do that very well, and I don't understand why they left such a basic feature off of this otherwise amazing player? (But then again, the PS3 doesn't do it either with BluRay's!? Go figure!) Yes, this forces you to fast forward, or chapter skip, to get to the point where you left off in the movie when you re-insert the disc, but it's a small price to pay for such a quality picture. I still recommend this DVD player.
