Digital camera reviews of Pioneer DV-393-S Progressive Scan DVD Player with Div-X
Digital camera Review: Pay attention to what this DVD player can/can't do
Summary: 3 Stars
I unfortunately did not do my homework on this DVD Player. I read and trusted other customer reviews which said that it played multi-region DVDs. This DVD player is NOT a multi-region DVD player. In the manual it states that it is a REGION 1 player (US) only. Although the player did play 2 of my British (Region2) discs, I had a dozen more that it would not play.
It's a great DVD player for the price, just not what I thought it was.....my fault entirely but I want to make sure no-one elsemakes the same mistake. Shipping to return the item was costly!
Digital camera Review: BUYER BEWARE!
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought the Pioneer DV-393-S DVD player for its multi-region capabilities. A friend of mine bought this very same model, and he received a region 3 player that played any region and was PAL and NTSC compatible. The player I received was a region 1 DVD player and it DID NOT play my region 2 DVDs. I was able to play a region 0 PAL DVD, so it still can translate PAL to NTSC, but other regions were now locked out of this player. So if you're in the US, and it's a multi-region player you're looking for, go with something else.Digital camera Review: Failed after about a year
Summary: 1 Stars
My 393 just failed after about a year of use. Was great up to now, but out of the blue (we just watched a DVD a few days ago) it has started showing distorted images on and off. Even with no disc in the player, the default Pioneer image or the setup menus are distorted so I know it's the player.
Maybe just a fluke, but I wouldn't buy another one.
Digital camera Review: I like it...
Summary: 3 Stars
s'OK I suppose. It's a fairly bare-bones DVD player that has so far played every format I've thrown at it. I really have no gripes with it functionally and it looks nice. If I had to choose a defect, it would be that it responds a little slowly to commands. I'd buy it again but not at this price.Digital camera Review: Wayyyyy worth the money!!!!!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been watching my English DVD's on my X Box, which means a fight with the kids for user time. I saw this unit on Amazon, and thought, $75??? How can that be? But with the good reviews I thought why not?
I hooked up the unit out of the box and played flawlessly whatever I put it. I gave my much more expensive Samsung to my son, as this "Cheap" unit plays everything.
What a steal!
