Samsung DVD-HD941 Up-Converting DVD Player
Do not waste your money - stick with a progressive scan
I was hoping this DVD player would be different but again I was disappointed.  It does have a nice design BUT... <br /> <br />DVD-R's seem to be the most difficult DVD's to play.  It did play some BUT not all of them.  I have read about how you cannot create a readable backup DVD-R or cheaper DVD-R's cannot be read.  I found this to be untrue. When I purchased another Samsung DVD player (progressive scan model) it had no problems playing any of my DVD-R's. <br /> <br />The second problem is the upconvert process.  I have a Hitachi Ultravision, and I saw no difference when upconverting, even with a Monster HDMI cable.  After speaking with several individuals, allegedly knowledgeable about this subject, I found that the upcovert, when it does work, doesn't make any significant impact.   <br />
