sanyo dvd-x5

does anyone know a region free hack for this player????

RE: Very simple questions to start me off with DVD

answers;
1, no it cannot, it can be only be connected using one of the two most common methods, either by a `scart` connector or by using s-video. Scart being the better of the two
2, Look for a dvd player that can play audio cd`s the majority can. All depends on budget with regard to sound quality.

hope this helps

Any good

JVC XV522, £150. are these players any good, are they region hackable, picture, sound quality ??
How do they compare against market leaders M5, LG3200, Sammy 511

RE: samsung 511 vs wharfie m5

Clayts,
is the M5 worth the extra £30 in terms of performance against the 511 though. I have a couple of friends who have the 511 and say it is a decent player for money, but i don`t know anyone who has an M5

samsung 511 vs wharfie m5

which one, my budget is £150, unfortunately too late for Tesco`s vat free offer on dvd players
