Samsung DVD-P421 Progressive-Scan DVD Player
This DVD player is  for real.
The playback performance of this DVD player is outstanding. I have played many DVD-Rs on this unit and it never skips.  Even ones that have many scratches.<br />While the Digest lable might be misleading, ( I like the word index)this preview feature of video and audio is excellent. <br />Not all current Samsung DVD models perform as well as this one.<BR>Other models look simular but do not perform as well. I recorded a DVD-R, using the highest quality option that the Pioneer PRV9000 will record. Other Samsung DVD players would not play it back.<br />The only item I found this unit that was weak, is the round knob on the large remote control in the center, it is not always a positive action and somtimes you have to hit it 2 or 3 times to get the option wanted.  That is the operation of the remote control and not a DVD player performance issue.  I can overlook that minor issue.<br />A great product at a great price.
