CyberHome DVD Player
It Dies...
These things are the greatest thing since sliced bread, IF THEY work.  Unfortunately, my experience is the first died after five hours use and the replacement unit died after half hour.  The first had the picture freeze during playback.  After that, it would not recognized any disk.  I tried several.  The replacement unit audio died after about half hour.  As of this writing, I have no unit (except my computer) to finish the movie!<br />I'm not really disgusted.  I'm actually kind of sad.  I got my daughter a CyberHome some 18 months ago and it still works. When it was running, the thing was a screamer.<br />The biggest open secret on the internet is CyberHome can easily be reprogrammed to be region free.  They'll play anything from anywhere on any media.  I tried.  I have an extensive collection from around the world, including some homemades.<br />You pays your money and takes your chances.  I mean if I only had gotten a year, I could deal.  At $35 what the hay?  Maybe I'll go to somewhere and get a warranty!
