from abt electronics Summary:
I purchased this player in May 2002. The 2 reasons I went with this is b/c I just did purchase a Toshiba big screen tv and wanted to keep it Toshiba. The 2nd is it gave me a dvd and vcr player in one. This is my first dvd player and the vcr replaced my sony one which I put in my bedroom to go w/ my older 27" sony tv.
Everything has been fine up until about a few weeks ago where when playing a dvd, near the middle/middle end of the movie...I can only guess b/c the inside of the machine is heating up some...its causing flickers of small "color boxes" to show on the tv screen. Please excuse my lack of better words but hopefully you know what I'm talking about.
I put a fan to the player but it doesn't seem to do the trick.
Yes, it could be I've a defect but I just wanted to put in my 2cents for the sake of those who take advantage of this site.
Besides my disappointment in this. The player does fine with vcd, cd, cd-r, mp3; although shuffle is missed and the screen does not show any folders. The remote is light as a feather (as well as the player itself)and does its job. Fits nicely in your hands and buttons are easy enough. I never thought I'd go on to say so much about a remote but I've come to notice its a big deal to some people so......
for me, if the sensor picks up easy...thats good enough for me. (My other dvd player, Daewoo 5800 has been a gem but...BUT, the remote sensor SUCKS! VERY WEAK & small whine when starts up but goes away). I'm pleased w/ my Daewoo. Strengths:
fair price for what you get.
the obvious; a 2in1 player. Weaknesses:
overheats and thus causes dvd to flicker/stop!
folders won't show when playing mp3. (my daewoo will show your folders on the screen). Similar Products Used:
