Apex AD-1200 DVD Player
DVD playback flawed
The MP3 and CD playback of this player are great, but its main function, DVD playback, is worthless.  I have tried two of these players (did an exchange), and both have a flaw in which during DVD playback, the video constantly fluctuates from bright to dark, with increased saturation while dark.  I know this is the fault of the player because the menu and &quot;screensaver&quot; modes do not present any fluctuation.  Also, I made sure I was playing Region 1 coded DVDs to be certain of compatibility.<br />Perhaps the store where I purchased the player received a bum shipment, and I'm not saying you shouldn't try it out yourself.  Just make sure all the features work before you throw away the receipt.
