Summary: Panasonic DVD, and well everything Panasonic, sucks. Between the often pixelated dvd picture and the Ho2 error death, save yourself the headache and buy any other brand. Someone should really start a class action lawsuit against Panasonic for peddling junk, and Best Buy should boycott them for the same reason.
Strengths: It was sub par in every aspect to my other dvd player.
Summary: wtf??? H02?? ok this sucks big time!! we got this player from a friend for xmas, they never used it was still in the original box and still in the plastic, ya it was old but they never used it!!! f_cking thing came up with the H02 error before we even got more than two weeks out of it!! if you ask me someone should start a lawsuit! this is bullsh_t! gonna try and do what you all are talking about and take the top off. hope it works will let you all know. stupid piece of sh_t do not buy this machine!!!!!! lmao wonder how many people had to go back and blank out some of the profanities
Strengths: good picture and player.........when it worked!!!
Summary: I have had this DvD player for 2 years now and i use it occasionally (2 dvd movies a month) and so far i have not recieved this HO2. The picture quality isnt the best but its not bad either, it lacks contrast and deapth however im surprise by how quite it plays the discs (sony's comparable model sounds like something is scratching). The mp3 disc playback is slow, and takes sometimes up to 10 seconds to find the next track, Not a bad dvd player for the price.
Strengths: Quiet disc read, modest quality
Weaknesses: MP3 read, modest quality, H02 error that i havent recieved yet, im waiting.
Similar Products Used: Sony, Kenwood, Toshiba, Daytek

Summary: panasonic dvdcv-51
"Throw it out the window." I had the same problem (HO2) that most people seem to be experiencing. I too was a big panasonic fan, but never again unless they write me a check for a brand new, warranteed machine.
Strengths: Ignore them.
Weaknesses: HO2 error. What the f is it? And if there is a little screen that can tell you there is an "error," why can't it be coded to at least explain what is going on?
