Amazon.com Item Description:
Forget thinking outside the box--now you can stop worrying about the box altogether. Coby's DVD-224 is about the size of a hardcover book, so whether you're ferrying the player between the kitchen and the bedroom or hooking it up for periodic use by the kids, the DVD-224's small size permits enjoyment of DVD programs and music CDs in just about any room you want. While not portable in the traditional sense--the unit has no screen and requires AC power--the DVD-224 is much easier to move around, set-up, and use than a traditional component DVD player.

It handles not only your DVD-Videos (both NTSC- and PAL-formatted discs, depending on your TV), but it plays your music, too--everything from standard CDs to home-burned CD-Rs, CD-RWs, and MP3-encoded CDs. Further, you can load a disc brimming with digital photos for custom slide shows in the comfort of your home theater.

An onscreen display simplifies setup and operation, and the unit comes with a compact, full-function remote control. Other features include parental controls (with PIN lock), frame-by-frame slow motion, picture zoom (2x, 4x), and multiple-angle viewing (with applicable discs).

Like to travel? The DVD-224 won't hog space in your bag, and an auto-switching universal power supply handles inputs from AC 110 to 220 volts (50/60 Hz) for use in most countries. Accordingly, the unit's onscreen display offers a choice of 5 setup languages: English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian.

A composite-video output ensures compatibility with nearly any television and many newer computer monitors. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (choose from either optical or coaxial) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. A set of standard left/right RCA analog outputs simplifies hookup with traditional integrated amplifiers and most televisions.

What's in the Box
DVD player, remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, and a stereo analog audio interconnect/composite-video cable.

Rating: - * Great cheap player ... this is a second player i bought. I owe 1 and just bought 2nd one for my parents. had no problems. its cheap and works great if you need to play ntsc or pal dvds Rating: - * Broken so easily ... I bought this DVD player in late May and was away for the summer. I started using it two weeks ago, probably 3 to 4 times till now. I haven't been able to played any DVDs since last night. This really sucks! Rating: - * Refuse ... I refused this product and the money didn't came back in my credit card yet. When are you going to do that? I'm waiting... Rating: - * Simple, Inexpensive but quality unit ... I was looking for a simple DVD player primarily for watching movies and space was limited in my entertainment center. This unit is small, easy to install and very simple to operate. Picture quality is excellent for a DVD player in this price range. Rating: - * Complete waste of money ... Worked for 1-2 weeks, after that it stopped working. The unit started humming and discs wouldn't play anymore. Complete waste of your time and money. Invest your money into something that works.
