Panasonic DVD-S68 HDMI 1080P Up-Converting All Multi Region Code Zone Free PAL/NTSC DVD Player. Plays DVDs from all Regions
This DVD player plays all NTSC/PAL DVDs in my collection flawlessly. It automatically detects the format and region of the inserted DVD and plays it without any further user intervention. I have no problem navigating the DVD menu of a PAL format DVD unlike my old all region/format dvd player. Another great quality of this DVD player is that it can play all Ghibli studio DVDs (NTSC Region 1) from the beginning to the end smoothly without any noticeable pause or freeze in the middle of movies (my Samsung DVD player often freezes in the middle of the Anime movies despite of the DVDs are meant for US distribution).
This DVD player has one set of RCA composite output and one set of component output in the back plus one HDMI output in the front. Since I am still using an old fashion TV, I do not know how good the up conversion of this player is. But, the picture quality is excellent. I chose this model because of the up conversion capability in case of my future TV upgrade.
The vendor shipped the item very quickly. One thing I did not find in the package was the mail-in registration card. I assume the vendor tinkered the player to make it all format/region and, thus, voided the manufacturer's warranty. Anyway, I would recommend this player to anyone who wants to watch PAL format DVDs or Anime movies.
