Not the best unit in the world
This is by far one of the worst DVD players I've had the misfortune to own. Although it is a 5-disc player, it does not have continuous play - therefore one must press play to move on to the next CD. The player responds very slowly to each command - for example it takes approximately 30-45 secs after pressing the open/close button for the unit to open, or after pressing the menu button for you to be able to select a menu option. The only good thing I'd say is that the sound - once the unit plays (and it is temperamental, is quite good. Frankly, the only reason I haven't returned this player is because I can't find the receipt!

A Good DVD Player,but has some flaws.
This is the first DVD player I ever bought cause at the time it was only $99.It plays well enough but occasionally even if the DVD is new and has no scratches,the DVD will suddenly become like a cheap Japanese movie.The soundtrack is playing while the lips of the characters are off.But for someone who owns this,if you have that problem,simply press "Menu" and then press play once back at the main menu.The film should resume and the problem shall be gone. The bookmark on the player is good,
when you save an entry it stays there unlike some more expensive models.Anyways if you need an exceptional DVD player for a cheap price,get this.

Horrible DVD Quality / Riddled with problems
I have had this dvd player for approximately 2 years and have had nothing but trouble. First of all, it doesn't effectively play mp3 cd's. Secondly, a few months ago, my sound quit working right through my receiver, you couldn't hear any voices (although you could hear the background music way too well). Then, my video wasn't working and all I got was black and white video, but then the sound worked fine. Now, neither sound nor video work. Ok, so I got this wonderful idea to call Tech Support. All the guy there did was repeat the same 5-step routine with me for 20 minutes. By the way, tech support is really located in Hong Kong (Oritron is not a US brand). Overall, I would not recommend this dvd player to anyone.

do not buy
for xmas I bought two products buy oritron. 1 dvd player, and 1 dvd home theater system. which one worked? neither! the player didn't work, right out of the box. the home theater system worked long enough to see a picture, but as perr the instructions once you see the picture you're to stop so that you can run the set up. after that it never works again. AND....the problem is inconsistant. sometimes it won't scan. sometimes it won't open, which is really frustating when your rental disk is STUCK IN THE DAMN MACHINE. also what's with the long delay on any command you give it? not just from the remote, but even when you use the ones on the console it's self it takes so long before anything happens your sure it didn't register when you pushed the button. AND...the remotes for both units [stink]. even if your laying on the floor with the player right in front of you, you still have to wave the remote around don't while pushing a button repeatedly. now i'm not just some lame tech challanged dork whose not how sure how to get a vcr to stop blinking 12:00. i've been an AV guy for decades, and have stayed up with all the latest, and all i have to say about these oritron products are DO NOT BUY!!! they are crap and a lesson in frustion. OH, and here's the topper. the main reason we bought this system when we did was, cause of the rebate. which oritron di not honor. they sent me an e-mail stateing "we did not qualify because our purchase was before OR after the specified rebate period". my girl friend works at the store where the system was purchased and not only do I have a reciept showing otherwise but I also have the computer print out from the stores register print out dated well within the "specified time period". and apperntly everyone at oritronis one vacation or maybe their computers are down. I hope they don't use thier own products.

do not buy this - horrible (I'd give it 0 stars if I could)
This machine goes into some wierd mode every now and then that requires it to be unplugged and reset. It lacks features, is poor quality. I regret buying it. I suspect all Oritron products are bad given they could make this one so bad.
