Panasonic DVD-CV50 5-Disc DVD Player
DVD functions are solid, CD's were a little suspect
This is my first DVD player, so I don't really have anything to compare it to.  I'm running this through a pretty old Kenwood receiver that does not support the 5.1 channel output or S-video hookups.  Nevertheless, the sound (on my Bose acoustimass speakers) and picture are pretty incredible.  I haven't really had a chance yet to test all the intricacies of this system, but I have a feeling I won't be disappointed.<br />However, on the CD side, I am not able to play &quot;burned&quot; cd's that I have made.  Regular store bought CD's come through fine, but as soon as I throw in a mix I have made myself from Easy CD Creator, etc., it says that the disc type is ineligible.  Needless to say I'm a little frustrated knowing that I have to keep my old Kenwood CD player hooked up so that I can keep playing these discs.  I'm not sure if all DVD players experience this shortcoming, but for me it's keeping away that fifth star.
