Samsung DVD-HD841 Up-Converting DVD Player
Geat DVD player for the price
I have had this DVD Player for several weeks now and only had one major problem; that was the setup issue that several have had.  However, I was aware of this problem and knew how to solve it.  But, it should be noted that Samsung has a firmware updated available that solves this problem.  I am guess that Samsung will have this firmware updated preinstalled in the near future.<br /><br />I rent movies from Netflix, the 5 at a time plan, so I watch a lot of DVD's maybe too many.  I have not had any problems with a DVD skipping.  In fact, I haven't had any problems at all with the playback of DVD's.  The sound is great and the picture is perfect displaying the finest detail and the full range of colors.  I am using the DVI output set at 1080i.  I only wish that I could get the picture to look half as good when watching standard definition TV stations.  I have spent hours finessing the color of standard definition (S-Video) and only a few minutes adjusting the DVI settings.<br /><br />The only gripes that I have are with the remote.  You do have to point the remote almost directly at the DVD player for it to receive the RF signal.  And the buttons on the remote are somewhat close together making it difficult to press the correct button sometimes.<br /><br />I am giving this item 4 stars because of the remote control issues.  Other that these two issues with the remote, I have had no problems with this DVD player.  And the price of this DVD player when compared to the others with the same features almost overcomes these minor problems.
