Sony DVP-NC800H/S HDMI/CD Progressive Scan 5-Disc DVD Changer, Silver Reviews
Since I feel that this DVD player should work correctly out-of-the-box as the instructions indicate, I give this product a very low rating for not being easily compatible with their own brand TV. I get a signal to the TV, but Picture is very poor quality (unwatchable). Not True HD, but damn close. Read all the Amazon customer reviews, some positive, some not so positive. I know that this DVD player should work correctly, but for some reason, it will not sync with the same name brand TV.
It is not. Nice deal. I have recently purchased a Sony Bravia 40" LCD high definition 1080p TV for my bedroom from Amazon through a promotional pricing offer, intended to get me to sign up for an Amazon Credit Card. I made the simple connection via a HDMI cable from the TV to the DVD player, and according to the Instruction booklet, that should do it.
No problems there. So, I thought the next item I would purchase is the Sony 5-disk 1080p DVD player from Amazon. Price was pretty good, so I bought one.
Upscaling DVD players are a great choice for people who have a large collection of non-HD DVD's, and don't want to spend the money to replace their Library of DVD's to get high quality Picture from their collection. I checked the TV Instructions booklet, and there are no additional steps to making this work. 1ooo bucks for the TV, 3 Interest Free months of low monthly payments.
I previously had an LG HDMI upscaling DVD player that upscales standard DVD's to 1080i (1080i DVD player and 1080p TV), and the picture quality was fantastic. I will hafta contact the manufacturer, and see if there are additional steps I need to perform in getting these two items to correctly play my DVD's. I set the TV input to HDMI 1 input, which is the HDMI input I first tried (I eventually tried all three HDMI TV inputs individually).
This Sony DVD player is supposed to be compatible with the Sony Bravia TV's.
Although it is true that it loads slowly, it is not a problem for me. I hesitated to purchase this product because of the reviews I read regarding how slowly it loads. I like Sony products, the price was right, so I purchased it. The sound quality and overall performance are excellent.
This DVD player does exactly what I wanted it to. I plugged this DVD player into my TV in about 30 seconds, just like any other.loaded 5 different discs into the player, and voila. I like to play various TV show DVD's at different times, but found it a chore taking them in and out of boxes and into the DVD player.waiting for them to load etc.forgetting where I left off when I came back to them. You hit one button to take you to the next DVD on the tray, wait about 30 seconds for loading and there you have it. I'll get right to the point with no hi-tech mumbo-jumbo. It was worth the vaery reasonable price I paid.
Thank you This piece of equipment works well and does exactly what I wanted it to do.
The worst part of this player is that it has a major flaw where the disc tray will lock up and there is no way to get it open. Now I have a DVD player that works but I cannot open the tray. One thing that did annoy me from the get go was how long it took for this player to start up and to change disks.
I bought this player about 15 months ago. I had to unscrew the cover just to get the DVDs out of the player.
The picture quality is excellent and having a multidisc changer on an upconvert DVD player was a bonus. I searched the internet and found out that other users are having the same problem. Buyer beware.
I contacted Sony and received some instructions, none of which worked.
