I was more worried about the playback stability (non-skipping). Do Samsung DVD players perform well when playing back movies?

Hmm, are Phillips generally rock-solid? In case I can’t find that model at BB.

That should be your basic, “does what its meant to do” player. Remember, when it comes to technology, you get what you pay for.

Oh yeah, but that’s cool. My last DVD player couldn’t even do that. It was 4 years old. Paid $140 for it at some seedy NYC electronic shop. This is half the price, and views JPEGs. Cool. I just didn’t know if Sammy’s were stable.

Well, I bought the Samsung. Couldn’t resist it for $60. Runs my “troublesome” new DVD’s perfectly. Has a cool zoom-in feature if you want to make things full-screen. Will work nicely with my next TV set (HDTV) someday, with its component-out.

I just use my PS2. Play games and DVDs. How nice.
DVDs will be out done soon by the new blue ray disks that are coming later in the future.

my PS2 has been having trouble with DVDs lately. Thats all I have to play DVDs too. I have an XBOX but I don’t have the DVD accessory.
