As I burn lots VCD's, & SVCD's because I don't have a DVD burner
(there not really economical considering the
price of the media).
I have a Samsung S328J that my friend gave me. I wouldn't recommend it
to anyone.
I often go to local Joshin or dekiya, find any Pioneer DVD player
(they play just about anything) to test them.
So.........What kind of DVD player do you all have?
Have you all had any problems playing multi-region DVD's, or
VCD/SVCD's?
Have you hacked it?

I have a Marantz 4200 which I believe won't play SVCD, but will play mp3.

My 'Shinco' DVD player (bought three years ago) plays just about
everything - and with Macrovision disabled too - not that I've ever copied a
DVD to video - just couldn't see the point. My Sony DVD player (bought
three & half years ago) plays practically nothing other than retail DVD
movies and CDs. The DVD player in my Panasonic Q cube is a fixed one out of
http://www.lik-sang.com/default.php in Hong Kong. It plays practically
anything.

I'm considering a DVD-R/RW burner for the next 'evolution' of my
workstation, but just because it's going to be a whole lot easier to send
home video footage of mr.sumo jnr. to his grandparents in the UK if I can
encode them to PAL format DVD through a computer. I burn them to VCDs at
the moment - but I'm not a patient editor, which is necessary when you're
dealing with limited space. A 10-pack of DVD-R discs at my local Yamada
retails for about 2800yen at the moment - personally I think that's fairly
reasonable.
