RCA DRC220N DVD Player
Ken in Denver
This RCA player is a nice buy for [X].  It does almost anything that non-progressive DVD players can do.  The compatability with different formats is impressive, as I can do slide shows with JPEG pictures, or burn those pictures onto VCDs using Nero 5.5.  Actually, you don't need JPEG compability if you do the latter, but you do need VCD compatability.<br />The list of features is broad.  There is zoom up to 4x, and I like the headphone jack with volume control.  The fast forward and reverse is limited to 16x max, which is too bad.  The remote control is cheap and inconvenient small buttons don't make things easier.<br />Like the previous writer, I've had problems with voices in Surround Sound mode.  First I'll get crackling noises with all the sound intact, then I'll lose the voices entirely!  This isn't good, but you can fix it by taking out the DVD, shutting down the player, and starting over.<br />Also, I notice that menu text shows artifacts when selecting a choice, a sign that the laser design is a little cheap.  There is slight jitter or shimmer of still frames when in pause.<br />Other than those quirks, I enjoy using this player.  It's in my bedroom, so having a headphone jack is a must....not that many DVD players have this feature.<br />At [X], this is a worthwhile unit to consider.
