Digital camera reviews of Philips DVP3980 Hi-Def 1080p Up-Conversion DVD Player
Digital camera Review: A Great Up-Conversion DVD Player that Converts PAL into NTSC
Summary: 5 Stars
I was looking to replace my DVD player with one that would also play my DVDs from the UK. I read some reviews and picked this player up for around $40 at my local super store. I have had this player for 6 months now. I have to say this is a wonderful player that has the same functions as players that cost many times this. I have had no issues with the player at all.
I was very pleased to see that with a setting change (see below), the player is able to play DVDs from any region (region free). It also converts PAL format to NTSC with amazing results. I can watch all my DVDs from the US and the UK with no issues. The upconversion of DVDs to high definition looks great on my 1080p 42" LCD television. The DVD player even supports DivX playback. I am very happy with this player for such a reasonable price.
To make player region free....
1. Open the DVD tray. - The splash screen displays.
2. Press 'Setup' on the remote control. - A menu pops onto the screen.
3. Scroll to 'Preference Page' using the left and right arrow keys to move along the top of the screen.
4. Enter the following number sequence: 1 3 8 9 3 1. - A menu will appear with the current region code displayed in the center of the screen.
5. Use the 'up' and 'down' arrow keys to select 0 for a region-free player or select a specific region from the Basic List of DVD Region Codes below.
6. Press 'OK'.
7. Press 'Setup'.
Summary of Philips DVP3980 Hi-Def 1080p Up-Conversion DVD Player
Your dream player with flawless, true-to-life picture quality and the ability to play virtually any disc! The Philips DVD player delivers your movies and music entertainment experience. 12-bit Video DAC is a superior Digital-to-Analogue-Converter that preserves every detail of the authentic picture quality. It shows subtle shades and smoother graduation of colors, resulting in a more vibrant and natural picture. The limitation of the usual 10bit DAC becomes in particular apparent while using large screens and projectors. The 192KHz sampling enables you to have an accurate representation of the original sound curves. Together with a 24-bit resolution, more information is captured from the original analogue sound wave form, giving a much richer audio reproduction.Categories
