RE: 5.1 DIVX DVD Player - £32.99 at Aldi

I got this player today. Tested +/- DVDR and worked great even the cheap nasty ones. I think the player looks smart and dont agree with the above post about the blue light on the loading tray *its cool* . Tested around 15 movies various divx/xvid and a couple of raw mpegs played all perfect except for 1 with no sound.

As someone stated the manual aint that great. To be honest you dont need a manual to use this "or any other"

The firmware question i think you are best to leave well alone unless it starts playing up. If it aint broke dont fix it. And has anyone else noticed that the buttons on the remote look a bit glow in the dark?

RE: the answer to the alba 103 region changeing

Hey robert b
I have been looking into this and in the 2 magazines and website i have been looking at this also states the the alba is multi region so your region 1 should play ok. check out this web http://www.techtronics.com/uk/shop/510-rce-regional-coding-enhancement.html and see if this helps!

1. Try putting in a region 2 disc and when the menu screen appears stick in a region 1 disc
2. This is more likely to work if your can switch the region manually do it that way instead of the automatic switching.

Good luck

RE: Scan DVD Player!!!!!! Help

Thanx to everyone for there 5 pence worth Cheer ;-)

Scan DVD Player!!!!!! Help

Well i was chuffed to see the reviews of the scan dvd until i came to this forum i was gonna get it tommorrow but now i am not that sure. :-(
Someone please instill some confidence in me that if i buy it that it won`t be a big mistake. Maybe that guy from scan has a few comforting words!

Anyway if i was to buy one i have a JVC dolby surround sound TV with Nicam it auto PAL/NSTC tuning i was wondering would the scan spill out the sound as pro logic through my rear speakers or am i just dumb.

P.S What does anyone think about the ALBA DVD 103?

Cheers thanx and all that stuff
