I've had this player for almost 5 years now and it still works perfectly with all my original DVDs, whatever region they come from.
However, I'm looking into buying a new player that'll read DVD-R better as the Orange BULKPAQ 4x keep freezing aound the end |

Good player but plays no (X)SVCD of any kind.
Not 100% compatible with DVD+RW (sometimes works, sometimes not - with the same disc). Not very tolerant to any non-standard DVDs. |

The drive is great. I just burned my own made DVDs(-R, -RW) with the Pioneer DVR-A05. Both DVDs play correct without any problem.
It was an expensive drive to buy, but clearly worth the investment! |

Fine DVD player.
This player play all kind of disks but something I have problems wiht DVD+RW playback.
When I'm watching a movie on a DVD+RW after a hour it give problems after eject and start this problem is over for 10 mintus. It is not a laser problem because I have replaced it yesterday. So the 717 play DVD+RW with a little problem. The best disk to play your movies are the DVD-R. |

| No problems with VCD. In fact, using VCDs created from DVD2SVCD (build 1.1.0 + patch) as 16:9 anamorphic (3rd option in DVD2SVCD) play just fine, with excellent resolution on my 16:9 tv. |

Successfully recognises DVD-R media by Apple, Verbatim, and Bulkpaq when burned with Ulead DVD MovieFactory. DVD-R discs burned with Nero (version 5.5.9.0) only work with good brand media (Verbatim, Apple) and sometimes freeze when searching.
VCD compatibility is extremely good. Works with a huge range of CD-R media (branded and unbranded). I use Nero to make VCDs.
Have not tested CD-RW or other DVD formats.
Build quality is superb. My player was region-modified by the retailer and works with Region 1 and 2 discs. |

I don't try DVD-R and DVD-RW but Pioneer say me that it works well.
They tell me the SVCD don' t works on Pioneer DVD players.
This player is a great player but it has 3 years hold now.
it doesn't support the last standard (SVCD , MiniDVD, etc ).

Generally the best of my players. I bought it codefree and it plays almost all DVDs that I tried ("My blue heaven" (Code 1) does not run, however). I lately played around with VCDs (made some with WinOnCD 3.8) and found that these VCDs do NOT work correctly (sound is miserable). I'm not sure if it's the plyer or the software that I used to make the VCDs. On my very cheap CyberHome player everything works fine...
Any suggestions (of course it's out of guarantee)? |

Even though it's old, it's still a great player. There is a known bug in the older models (lipsynch), the later revisions (including the one I have) have this fixed.
It does NOT play svcds, as most owners seem to agree. It's a riddle to me why some owners report it does, as SVCD is a standard - it should play it or not. It does play VCDs fine, even though it does not like cheap quality cdr's, and you can forget about fast forwarding and rewinding smoothly.
As far as I know the hack posted here somewhere to disable regioncheck does not work either. You need to upgrade the firmware of the player. Some upgrades give you access to that specific menu, but NOT in a player you buy from a shop without mod. |

This player does NOT play svcd, so remove the support for svcd on the comparison list for this player.
This info is from pioneer.no and the retailer where they sold me this player..
Otherwise, this is a very good player.. |

Playing DVD works great on this machine.Awesome.But when it comes to VCD and SVCD I hate to admit,but it sucks.to play a VCD is no problem.But when it comes to
rewind and fast forward,man it´s lousy.Takes a lot of time and if I forward to much,it freezes.Thia is my secand 717,and the act the same,,,,............ |

I have only had positive results with my DVD-player untill recently...
It played everything I put in it... untill recently.
These days it only accepts DVD's ... if I put in a CD or a VCD it doesn't recognize the format and opens back up... |
