Page 1 of ARGOS DVD

I have been in the process of trying to buy a budget dvd from argos that will play DVD with reasonable quality (r1&r2). I first acquired the ALBA103 but quickly found 2 problems, No RGB output and lip sinc problems with region 1 disks. I then decided to exchange the ALBA for a DAEWOO. This has the same RGB problem but worst still on just some disks (Halloween restored version from Anchor Bay) really awful picture. The problem can be so bad it resembles something from windows media player. as I cant switch my Philips WS TV to RGB manually I purchased a s-video lead from lektropacks hoping picture would be better but no. I hoped I was not asking to much from a sub £200 player but I only wanted them to do what it said on the box.
Does any one know if the Bush2006 or Philips711 have any problems or can play region 1 disks

DAEWOO is perfect at playing T2 UE no problems at all--strange

If you`re after a budget player go for an updated wharfy or yelo.

I had problems with the alba 103 exchanged it for another one and had the same problem so got my money back and bought the updated Wharfie 750 (not the 750s). Plays R1 & R2 ok, sounds great (DD5.1 & DTS with digitheatre DTS) no problems with playback as yet.
