DVD Player & TV

Hi Everyone who owns that DVD player that I want. :D

Seriously, what DVD player do you all have? Do you recommend it? What are its downfalls and good points?

What brand of TV to you have to go with your DVD player? Do you have special cables to connect the DVD player for a better picture?

I went to Vidoefitness and read their recommendations but that list may be out of date by now.
Just curious as to what you looked for in your player.

My goal is so be able to play 3 of Cathe's DVD's and to mix and match the programs on all three.

I can't stand it any longer that you all have those special workouts.....LOL

I have a panasonic dvd player. I never got around to using the program option until after the waranty had run out. So, I highly recommend if you buy one, go to a store where they have one hooked to a TV, learn to use the program option there. Then go home & try it out first thing. By the time I got around to using the program option, it didn't work & now I'm out of luck.

Good luck.
 
I got the Pioneer DV-C503. Got it at Costco for about 125.00. It was the last one left and a floor model. It works great, plays 5 discs and is fully programmable. However, I don't use the programming option because it is faster just to use the remote to go to another disc or section.

Today's equivalent of this player might be called the DV-C506 or 603 or something. Some people said they didn't like this player as much as the Sony (in a thread at VF a while back) because the remote is "not intuitive." But I have nothing to compare mine with. Plus I am a skinflint so I love the bargain. If it has a remote at all, that's a plus for me.
 
Hi Wanda,

I just placed an order for the Sony DVP NC615 that is mentioned on the Video Fitness website. I don't think that information is too outdated because you can find both Sony models mentioned in most stores that I've checked. I bought mine from BestBuy.com...they have free shipping. I'll let you know how it is when I get it!

I appreciate your response to my question, Deborah, Connie and Lori.

By showing my DH what you girls are able to do with these new DVD's, I've finally convinced him that I absolutely HAVE to have them.:D

He said if I checked out the best buys I could have it by March. Currently MY TV has the VCR in it and doesn't have the necessary set up for the DVD player.
So I also have to get a TV as well. But....I'm going to order the DVD's right away before Cathe runs out. LOL

RE: DVD Player & TV

Can you post the link to the VF discussion about DVD players. I could only find the general article, "Are You Ready to Upgrade to DVD". Thanks!!
