Toshiba SD-5915 DVD Player Reviews
DVD's skip, remote sometimes does not respond, sometimes a DVD will freeze. As alot of the other reviewers said, I agree.your just throwing your money away here. I thought I'd purchase a Toshiba DVD player since I love my TV. I put the same DVDs in another DVD player in my bedroom and they all worked fine with no skips/freezing. I currently have a Toshiba TV and love it. I have completely wasted my money on this piece of junk.
Then 4 out of 5 DVDs played will freeze. I wanted to go with Toshiba because we have a Toshiba TV, I thought we could use the new remote with the our old TV and consolidate some remotes. I thought that the rented DVDs were dirty or scratched so I have taken to cleaning them before playing, but the sub fifty dollar DVD has had no problems playing the same DVDs that this player freezes. I discounted the bad reviews on this site and bought this DVD/CD player in July. We have been using a sub fifty dollar model for a couple of years and I wanted to replace that and our CD changer with one unit.
Avoid this piece of junk. This is the worst purchase I have ever made. It's all most unusable. The first disappointment is the remote control's layout, it is the worst.
Audio CDs play fine, CDRs will skip and pop, the same CDRs will play fine on other systems.
Being cheap, it doesn't remember where it was and you have to scan through the movie to find your place. Other reviews say it's slow to respond - they aren't kidding. Push "open" to access the tray and it grinds away for ten seconds deciding what to do.
More often than not it'll stay closed and go back to the movie. I got this to stop getting up all the time to change disks in my single DVD player.
Sometimes (not often) it freezes completely and has to restarted. Avoid like the plague. Now I'm getting up lots more trying to get this to work.
Also ultra susceptible to scratches/fingerprints so the picture stops and jumps frequently.
I bought this DVD player brand new.
Overall. cannot rewind or fast forward these because that initiates the frozen pause I discussed above and ends the movies or home movies or whatever on these dvd's immediately). (And indeed, it is in the design of the product because I returned 1 to the Toshiba factory for the problems it was giving me only to be given another one that merely gradually developed the exact same problems).
Toshiba damages their reputation with this dvd player. You are throwing your money away if you buy this product. After owning my Toshiba SD-5915 for about 1.5 years now, I just don't even use it anymore because: the movies pause for about 5 seconds, 10 or more times during a single movie viewing; sometimes the movie will not finish, instead freezing up and requires being unplugged from the wall to turn the player off; the remote has few buttons left that work; the picture warps sometimes during the movie; any discs made from a computer or a recorder (like the one that I use to record TV shows) are difficult to get to work usually will play partially and stop or just do not start at all (and I esp.
I've never owned anything as buggy as this DVD player.
I've also had problems with skipping & many movies become "pixelated". The only way was I was able to get the DVD out of the player was to unscrew the top and remove most the of pieces to remove the DVD. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone, and I'll will never purchase any type of Toshiba home audio/video equipment again. I purchased this 5 Disc DVD player to eliminate two of my console pieces from my audio/video rack. It ruined 1 of my child's favorite DVD's because the DVD somehow jumped off the spinner and got scratched while spinning on the player's inner electronics. This DVD player does not like scratches on DVD's or CD's (which caused the pixelation).
When I purchased this, it was under $100. After about a month or so, I realized you are definitely getting what you pay for. I was hoping that this item would replace my current DVD player & my 5 disc CD player as well. And that's exactly what it is.a $100 piece of useless electronics.
