Panasonic DVD-CP67 5 Disc Progressive Scan DVD Player
Horrible remote, front panel controls, and manual
I've owned dozens of audio/visual products and remotes. This Panasonic is incredibly frustrating to use because the remote and the front panel controls are the worst I've ever seen. Nothing is intuitive and the play/stop/rewind/forward buttons on the remote are about the size of grains of rice and are difficult to find among the sea of buttons on the remote. The play/stop/rewind/forward buttons the ones used 90% of the time -- make the bloody things larger than the others and easy to find. The remote isn't backlit either, and to activate the buttons you've got to mash them ALL the way down.<br />Changing discs is a pain, too. Sometimes it just doesn't want to, no matter what you do with the remote. Changing DVDs at the unit is maddening, too. I'd go into it, but I'd be writing all day. Oh, the manual is horrible, too.<br />That being said, once you get the ...thing playing the disc you want it to, the picture and sound quality is really good.<br />...
