Coby DVD-207 Compact DVD Player
Player is Highly UNDERrated. COBY's customers support isn't.
I bought this DVD player because it has the ability to play all regions and convert NTSC-PAL and vice versa. It actually works quite well (and I am a tech-geek, so I don't like junk).  <br /> <br />But for $30... you CAN'T go wrong with this baby. I bought a PAL DVD set from UK and I popped it into my player and 1 disc played fine, no flickers, nothing, it worked great! <br /> <br />PROBLEM: the 2nd Disc in the set wouldn't play and there was a \\"Wrong region\\" message, which is BS, because the player plays all region. I called Coby's customer support and they gave me a run around with \\" You need an R/F-Modulator\\" ... I didn't. <br /> <br />All I did was use a code I found online: <br /> <br />\\"With remote control and player stopped, press setup, vol+, vol-, vol+, vol-  <br />Use arrow keys to select region 1-6 or 255 for all region. Numbers appear on TV screen. Press setup again to save and exit.\\"  <br /> <br />To change the region to 2 (Which was my DVD's region) and the DVD played just fine. So obviously, there are some format issues with this player, but once I fixed it, I'm really really happy. <br /> <br />Where else can you get a PAL-NTSC converting DVD player for $30!??? It's quite the deal for the purpose of playing foreign DVDs.  <br />It's a nice little player, tiny too, so it won't take up space anywhere. AND, it plays MP3s well also. For the price, you could plug it into your stereo and use it to play MP3's. So its a win win ... and for the price, if something went wrong in the future, just buy a new one.  <br /> <br />I recommend this! Its a nice player for the price and its versitality!!!
