Toshiba SD-1200 DVD Player
Excellent for the money!
Very solid performance from a quality player.... This player works very well - quiet drive mechanism, rock-sold pause and zoom, and I love the screen-darkening to make movies look less gray-ish if you choose. I have this hooked up via  s-video and I am very happy with the picture. Yes, the remote is made for  people with toothpicks for fingers but I can live with it. You really  cannot get more bang for your buck.  Get this one - the choice is clear.
