Daewoo DVG-9200N Progressive Scan DVD Player
Excellent little player!!!!
I had owned a Cyberhome CH-402 for a couple of years, until it crapped out on me, and by a recommendation from folks on a movie board I belong to, I bought this DAEWOO DVG-9200N player. <br /> <br />I have alot of non-Region 1 Pal/ntsc dvd's, and my main focus was for a dvd player to be able to play my \\"Anamorphic\\" NON Region 1 ntsc dvd's correctly. There are alot of low-end players that you can hack, that will play non R1 pal/ntsc dvd's, but not ALL will play an Anamorphic dvd correctly. By correctly, I mean that the player will display a non R1 anamorphic dvd as you would see it normally with an R1 ntsc dvd on a standard ntsc player, and NOT as a \\"squeezed\\" or \\"stretched\\" look to it. Alot of low-end players will do just that to anamorphic R2 Pal dvd's for instance, w/ the stretched or squeezed look. This, my friends, does NOT do that, and plays all my anamorphic non R1 ntsc dvd's correctly. <br /> <br />This was a HUGE factor in purchasing this player. Well, that, and on the recommendation that it was a stand up player in it's own right. It's played everything I've thrown in it, from dvd-r/+r/-rw/+rw, cd-r/rw. I haven't tried any vcd's in it, as I don't have any, so I cannot comment on those. <br /> <br />The hack is unbelieveably simple. Even a 5yr. old could do it. I got mine at Target on sale for $40, and is one of the best investments I've made in a while. So good, that I bought another as a stand-by. <br /> <br />This player seems to be a little hidden secret, as many folks don't seem to know about it, and it's capabilities, yet. But believe me, it's definetly worth the price.
