Plays Princo printable 4x DVD-R disks. I tried first Thomson 195E, movie was like jumping rabbit. Same effect was when I tried Sony DVP-NS433. So I bought Panasonic S31 and I haven't had any problems with my Princos.

Comments:
It's impossible to browse a CD for MP3/WMA and JPG at the same time.

When playing MP3s, it doesn't show the song title in its own screen. It's necessary to turn on the TV.

It's impossible to sort the MP3 tracks, it only plays them in path-alphabetical order. Also doesn't have random play. Otherwise the browsing menu is very nice and easy to use.

I think the audio/video output is very good.

Perfect Player - nice Design - very good On Screen Menus - MP3 Folder and Longnamesupport.

Plays all of my DVD / SVCD / VCD Disk.

Not perfect on DVD-SVCD (MPEG2 on DVD-R(W)) - but it's ok.

This Player is able to Play DVD+R and DVD+RW (It's not clear if you read the Productspecification)

My best Player to a fair price.

Got a Toshiba SD-K620 from costco, returned it because it can't play my VCD/SVCD, got a Pioneer 653 from COMPUSA, same problem, returned it. Got a Pioneer 260, same problem, will be returning to Walmart tonight. Got this player from Costco tonight, after rebate will be $70, it plays all my VCD/SVCD without any problem, just like my good old Pioneer 525! Get this new player for MP3s, only problem I have to get an optic cable for the reciever, there's no coxial PCM. I would rate this a 10 if it has coxial PCM output, silver color don't match my other units.

Excellent picture and sound.
Transport mechanism a bit noisy, but only during menu selections. Bought for MP3 and DVD-RAM playback, both of which work. Can playback DVD-RAM discs recorded with my E30 recorder while the E30 records other programs.
