Oritron DVD-100 DVD Player
for 10 Months use
This unit was my first DVD.  I was looking for a low cost model just to watch movies. This unit was on special at an electronics store for [dollar ammount]so I figured \\"not much to lose\\".  The unit was purchased in February 2001 and worked fairly well.  Picture quality was good and the audo output feed sounded ok through my TV's Dolby system.  About 5 months after purchase I began to have problems with the unit not responding to the remote or to the on-panel menu buttons. About a month later a while viewing a movie the unit skipped about 40 miutes of content.  After checking the DVD at the rental shop (it played fine there) I rented another DVD and it appeared to play fine.<br />The final shot came in December when I found that the unit would not turn on or open the drawer.  At this time all I see are the red power light and the green function light.  Not much entertainment there.  I am looking for a replacement model but I would be very careful abou trusting Oritron again.  I would look at a more recognizable name
