Toshiba SD-4109X 6-Disc DVD Player
As It Happens Review - Continued
RE:  Toshiba SD-4109X CD/DVD Player. On MONDAY my husband became the proud owner of a brand new CONTROL, and he is doing fine! Personally, I think it somewhat of a pain to possess so many controls, yet it appears to be a   status symbol for the 21st Century. About the Toshiba DVD/CD CONTROL, it is  awesome for its DVD use, which I now believe to be the main function of  this machine.  There are about 50 million features on the control (I'm  exaggerating).  Along with the normal stuff, e.g., reverse, etc., there are  some new features: slow motion, zoom, 3-D sound, locating specific frames  from a movie (they call them chapters or titles or something), repeating  these frames, extracting them into your favorite order, and actually  programming up to 28 of these frames and placing them into memory.  You  become the director at your own movie show! You can even change the angle  of a scene. I realize this is difficult to believe, and I certaily wouldn't  unless I had seen it (I'm still in awe of the fax machine).  A word of  caution: DO NOT, under any circumstances, look at page 14 in the Toshiba  Owners Manual ( a diagram of the control naming and locating all of the  features).  If by mistake you do, as did I, squint your eyes and make the  page blur into an abstract piece of art (nobody understands abstract  art).On TUESDAY I dismantled my stereo amp and Infinity Speakers (he  wouldn't let me have the Logans), and placed them near the Toshiba player  (but not too close).  I'm ready to rewire, maybe tomorrow.  For today, I  remain ecstatic about my new Toshiba machine and also the proud owner of  the Matrix DVD.
