United DVD 1951

I took out my United from the cellar, and it is still working very well.I bought it some 5 years ago at a Rimi store here in Norway.And thanks - it is zone free so I can see photocd`s from my family, - which I cant on my Pioneer DVR -930 H-S 400GB disc, and in addition plays only zone 2, and will not even allow me to store an old Elvis song.That Pioneer was the worst thing I ever bought in my life.

I bought my DVD on RIMI in kr.sand/norway. for 1000 NOK.. that is were cheap here in Norway

Bougth this player today and is very happy with it, reads burned discs like a charm, you can't beat the price... =)

The United DVD 1951 dvd player is very cheap.

I bought this player from RIMI in Norway. Before, I had an Oritron dvd200 diamond. The United player is much better. And the control works very well.

The design is very good.

The player can also get upgrade (flash).

Resume - after 1 month use of the United DVD 1951 DVD player.

This player is worth the money (and was sold out quick) at the RIMI-market. It's possibile to buy simular players from the brand UNITED for about 1500 NOK - so THIS one was very cheap for it's 990NOK.

It's code-free (tested it with a DVD sone 1).

Perhaps you can use the hack for UNITED 2255 player

locatet at http://www.vcdhelp.com/dvdplayershack.php?select=United%20DVD%202255. if you want a disired sone.

For the remote: They talked about in the newsgroup that is too powerfull! SO in case it is not working (and batteries are good) - DON'T use it directly torwards the player, but rather at against a wall.

Playing VCD/SVCD. Normally the player has no trouble playing these format's. You don't even need to burn a VCD, since the player can play back most mpg-files from any PC-cd. Just keep in mind that the file is named *.mpg.

I had som mpg2-files named *.m2v. That didn't play back - but renaming them to *.mpg and these mpg2/svcd-file did well.

My friend told me that the chip inside is "cheap" and will hang/freeze some frames if they are coded too hard/powerfull. I saw that on some mpg-files (they hack).

I've had no problems with my United DVD 1951 DVD player.

I've had it for 1 month now. And I'm very pleased.

Now I got Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS. And a good picture on my TV.

Of course any Stereo/HIFI/Movie freak can say: "It's not bad, but you can get better". Of course you can get better, for a lot more money. I think the sound and picture quality is VERY good for the price you pay.

I like good sound and a clear picture and now I'm pleased.

The United DVD 1951 is a very cheap DVD-player (990 NoK). The remote control is not of the best kind, but if you aim a bit high, it works out well!

The digital updating on screen is not of the best, but it is no problem.

Hey, i bought this United DVD 1951 DVD player 3 days ago, had some problems with the remote control as well.. Yesterday i found out tht i had to doubleclick on the buttons, then it works perfectly hehe! So far i like my new DVD player!

Yes, I got my United DVD 1951 DVD player at RIMI-supermarket too!

Play's almost everything!

Most impressed I'm at playing picture-CD's (with JPEG).

No other player offers that so fare.

minus

-for the colour (I would prefer BLACK)

and some problems playing CD's with many MP3's/dir's

(Best to select them in SmartNAVI=ON)

The United DVD 1951 DVD player even plays mpegs, jpegs and mp3s on CD with Mac filesystem (and Joliet/Mac hybrid too).
