Toshiba SD-6915 5-Disc Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Psychedelic remote
The piss poor remote layout and user interface is why everyone else is complaining about this DVD-player.  Toshiba engineers must have got bored with the older layout and decided to improve it by using submenu to control things.  I previous owned a Toshiba sd-740 and I love the picture images and ease of use of the remote.  Issues of the layout is the small IR range of the remote, to get it to work you got to point at it straight and level toward the right side of the machine front panel.  To bookmark a chapter, find a chapter, you got to hit the submenu and go from there, how inconvenient not to be place simple commends on the remote.  To forward and slow backward you have to press and hold down the next and back chapter buttons respectively.  What happened to the other length of the movies options display?<br /><br />Other issues:<br />The 5 discs unit here is twice as deep as a single player unit.  You have to manually disc skip instead of each tray having its own distinguish buttons.  Like the other reviewer stated the disc stop per the end of each disc, not automatically changing.<br /><br />Images quality:<br />The DVD images are just as good as other consumer level player made by Toshiba.  I can't really compare this player images to other images from $200 plus DVD-players.  But I can say the color saturation and smoother progressive scan is a lot better then Panasonic or JVC consumer-level DVD players priced similarly.  The sound quality is fine if you hock it up to a good receiver.  DTS sound find also.  Must have a HDTV ready set to use progessive scan.<br /><br />I say avoid this player since most people will find it too frustrating to use, but if you use it to just watch movies without fiddling around the images quality is fine.  I give it a 4.5-stars there.
