Product Description
The DVP-NC85H five-disc DVD player offers 720p/1080i upscaling through an HDMI connection (High Definition Multi Media Interface). HDMI allows the transfer of uncompressed digital audio and video signals to other HDMI equipped components, providing an uncompromised picture. It also features Precision Cinema Progressive technology, which delivers accurate and vivid images to the television. Unlike other DVD players that detect image changes at the Scan line level-Sony's Precision Cinema Progressive (PCP) system detects them at the Pixel level. This results in images closer to the original source data, because separate, optimized algorithms are used to handle the differing Pixel behavior. Precision Drive III mechanism is also included, which helps maximize the performance of DVD collections by reading data even on some physically "warped" discs. Other benefits include a 12bit/108MHz video DAC (digital to analog converter), and 24 bit/192KHz audio, providing high-quality video and audio processing for vivid images and crystal clear sound.
Amazon.com Product Description
Store hours upon hours of entertainment in Sony's DVP-NC85H/B five-disc carousel changer. This versatile unit plays DVDs and a variety of older disc formats, such as VCD and SVCD, as well as your favorite music CDs. And since the unit supports HDMI connections, you're sure to get the best picture possible.
HDMI Compatible
High-Definition Multi-media Interface (HDMI) is an interface format that provides uncompressed digital audio and video directly to a digital television. It represents the current state of the art in high-definition video and sound because the information never has to be converted into an analog format. Another benefit of HDMI is that it puts all that information into one cable and one easy-to-use connector.
An added benefit of connecting the DVP-NC85H/B to your set with HDMI is that the unit can "upscale" commercial DVDs, which are rendered at 480p resolution, to a digitally interpolated 720p resolution, which makes for a much sharper picture.
For analog sets, the DVP-NC85H/B includes a 108 MHz 12-bit digital-to-analog converter for sharp picture and clear action. It features composite, S-video and component video connectors, as well as optical digital, coaxial digital, and RCA analog audio outputs.
Precision Cinema Progressive
While other DVD players detect image changes at the scan line level, Sony's Precision Cinema Progressive (PCP) system detects them at the pixel level. This makes the picture more faithful to the source--whether film or video--because the technology uses separate, optimized algorithms to handle the differing pixel behavior. It also uses separate algorithms to process the moving and still parts of an image, resulting in sharp backgrounds with moving objects that are virtually free from motion artifacts.
Precision Drive 3 System
Sony's DVP-NC85H/B delivers excellent picture and sound quality--even from damaged discs. How? The unit's Precision Drive 3 system allows you to playback some DVDs that may have been damaged or warped without a degradation of picture quality. This feature comes in handy when watching rentals or other heavily used discs.
MP3 and JPEG File Playback
The DVP-NC85H/B plays MP3 sound files and JPEG photo files. Simply insert the disc and use the remote control to navigate through your folders to your files.

I really love this player!.......2007-12-21
After over 40 hours of play time thus far, I just love this DVD player. Some might think it's slightly slow but I am not that impatient! I think it works extremely well and the only slight drawback is that it does make some mild mechanical noise while loading or waiting to be loaded. This is not a big deal at all and it stops as soon as a disc is loaded. It's totally a minor thing. I can't believe that I was able to get this fabulous 5 DISC SONY DVD Player for $120!! Merry Christmas to Me! ;-) (yeah!)
Great Picture, Great Sound & Easy To Use.......2007-12-12
I bought this unit to replace several CD players and a single disc DVD player. It is all I hoped it would be. I've got it hooked up to an HDTV and a Home Surround Sound System. Picture and sound quality are great. The system was easy to kook up. The manual is fairly straight forward. The multi disc feature makes it easy to load up on music and sit back and enjoy without the need to swap out discs. I'm not into random play, so negative comments in some other reviews had no impact on me. I bought it based on the features I knew I would use and wanted. The price also was quite good. I would highly recommend this unit until an HD version comes along that can match it.
Buy this instead of a CD changer.......2007-12-02
My Denon DCM-390 died after 3 years. Just up and died. (It had replaced Denon's earlier, cheaper model that had lasted for ten years (it was cd-r's that killed the beast).
When my first Denon died after 10 years, I upgraded. I trusted the brand. And HDCD! (woo hoo cares.) It was always glitchy, anyway.
3 years. $300. I paid $200 for the one that lasted 10 years!
So I painstaked over this purchase. I wanted a disc changer. Our Music stereo is completely separate from our DVD/5 channel surround sound setup (we don't do network television).
Why consider a DVD changer to replace your CD changer?
The higher bit-rate sampling? The cheaper cost? The wider compatibility? The flexibility when your dvd player finally dies?
What the hell, I thought, let's try it.
(Sorry Amazon) I bought this one directly from Sony. Refurbished for $95 with a 3 year replacement guarantee.
After my experience with the higher end (not super-high end, I know) Denon, I was more interested in how long will it last than how perfect will it sound.
Yippee! It sounds better than the Denon ever did. Even with the HDCD discs.
Sure, it takes longer to load--it acts more like a DVD player than a CD player--but, man, it sounds great through my Denon amp and Polk speakers. It sounds even better through headphones.
I was tempted, almost convinced that I needed to spend another $200 at least to get a quality CD changer (with a 1 year limited warranty). I was sure there must be a reason the Cd changers cost so much more than the DVD/CD changers. I'm glad I didn't.
I'll be happy if I never hook this thing up to a TV. It sounds great!
good dvd player.......2007-11-19
Good upscaling dvd player. A big improvement over my old non-progressive player. Haven't had any reliabilty issues yet, but only had for 2 months. I am enjoying this machine!
Works perfect as I expected.......2007-11-05
This player was a replacement for my 1992 Sony that was quite similar to this one. The 1992 worked well for years and had slowly passed away. The new one works perfectly as I expected. The controls are on a bevel slanted towards the top though and not as easy to see and use as my old Sony. But still a very very good product.

Save Your Money!.......2007-12-13
This product worked flawlessly as long as the warranty was good. Then....
It shut itself down. I checked Sony's website and found that they would
exchange it.....for $103.04....almost exactly what I paid for it in the
first place. No thanks. I will never buy another Sony product, save for
their TV's. By some fluke, they are excellent.
Great progressive scan 5 disk DVD changer.......2007-12-07
I've been using Sony 5 disk DVD changers going back to the 1990's and they've all been great. The last DVD player was a progressive scan 5 disk changer with SACD, and is now in the bedroom because the Sony DVD player I bought back in the 1990's finally died.
This player works great I've only had it for a few months, but it has never given me any trouble, and I like features of the player.
My earlier main player had a great picture with its progressive scan, and to be honest I was a little disappointed in the up-scaling. But a 5 disk DVD changer with progressive scan at this price is a great deal regardless.
By the way I have it hooked up to a Sony 55" 1080i LCD HD TV, and have both the HDMI and a component cable hooked up, and when I switch between the two video input's I do see a subtle difference, but it's not an overwhelming change (however I do view the HDMI input most of the time).
Over all it's produces a great picture, and has all the features I look for in a DVD changer, and at this price level it really is a great buy.
Outstanding Picture Quality.......2007-08-25
I've had this player for 9 months and have been very satisfied with its performance. For those that own an HDTV with an HDMI connection, this is a great alternative to the currently high-priced HD-DVD and Blu-ray players and provides a near-HD quality picture at a much lower price. I've compared this player's video output with cable HDTV broadcasts and the DVD picture quality is very close to actual HD.
The player is connected to a 42" Sony HD microdisplay with an HDMI cable. I've also connected a standard 480p player to the same TV using a component cable and the picture quality was far inferior compared with the HDMI connection. The HDMI cable I use is reasonably priced at around $20 and works very well. It isn't necessary to buy an overpriced and overhyped cable like Monster's.
I'll eventually buy an HD player once the HD-DVD vs. Blu-ray issue is settled. I'm very happy with this player in the meantime.
Excellent unit.......2007-08-22
I've had this player for over a year and have had absolutly no issues with it. Like most upscaleing dvd players it will only upscale to 720P and 1080I through HDMI-not componet. If you have an older hdtv without either an HDMI or DVI input you will have to look elsewhere-there are a few dvd players that will upscale through componet. I don't use it for playing cds-I have a Panasonic DVD-F87 5 disc player that excells at cds. The picture quality at 720P (at least on my hdtv) looks better than 1080I. Highly rated player in my book.
Disappointing.......2007-07-09
I received this player as a prize, and was really looking forward to using it. It worked fine for about 2 weeks, then the "locked" message was displayed on the unit, and the tray would not open. I followed the directions in the manual, which didn't work. I unplugged the unit, which didn't work. Finally, I contacted Sony, who told me that it would need to be sent in for service. After searching for a solution online, I've found that this is not an uncommon problem. I wouldn't recommend taking a risk with your money on this Sony.

Denon DVM 1805.......2003-12-07
Purchased this to be both a CD changer and a DVD Player. The sound is good and the video is great. Unfortunately, the system has no sequential play mode between disks even though it holds five. If you put five CD's in for instance, you can only play one CD then it stops. To play the next CD you have to physically tell the player to switch to the next CD and start it. The same problem occurs with DVD's so for instance if you have a 2-CD Lord of the Rings, it will not sequentially play the second DVD. This is a bummer as I've come to expect better from Denon.

Broke after 18 months.......2006-12-27
I have two of these changers, a black and and a silver one. The first broke after 18 months. After sending back to Yamaha certified repair Center, the option to repair was about $230. Guess what... A new one costs about the same.........
DVD Changer.......2006-12-03
The Changer is nice and the remote has a lot of features like repeat all disc and things like that however my DVD changer broke after a year and a month and of course it was out of warranty. If you buy any DVD changer please get a warranty. That's my opinion
Product Description
Samsung's latest generation DVD players bring a new level of performance and prestige to this fast growing format. Samsung DVD players are specifically designed to deliver the ultimate in picture quality and convenient features. The DVD format has grown incredibly over the past few years and Samsung has delivered players with all the features you are looking for.PRODUCT FEATURES:5 Disc Progressive Scan DVD Player;Slim Design (less than 80mm);Mecha Speed Changer;MP3/WMA Playback;VCD/SVCD/DVD-R Playback.
Amazon.com Product Description
Samsung's titanium-finished DVD-C631P five-disc carousel changer dishes up favorite movies and music, featuring high-end component-video outputs, built-in MP3 and WMA (Windows Media Audio) decoding, and compatibility with JPEG image CDs and Kodak Picture CDs so you can enjoy a slideshow of digital pictures right on a television.
Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVD-C631P stands ready to deliver the full potential of DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, provides higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. In addition, top-of-the-line component-video outputs help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts on compatible advanced televisions, while composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television.
A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. Another handy feature is EZ-View letterbox eliminator, which makes it easy to enjoy full-screen pictures on 4:3 aspect-ratio TVs--even when you're watching widescreen DVDs. Supplied accessories include a composite-video/stereo analog-audio interconnect, instruction manual, and a remote control.
Customer Reviews:
Seriously...what's the deal?.......2004-03-30
The picture quality this player produces is quite up to par. The sound quality is also good. I have but one qualm with this product...a major qualm, actually:
It is not good at actually playing DVDs. The tiniest scuff or scratch results in audio/video skippage. I have attempted to clean the player numerous times, but to no avail. Perhaps my room is far too dusty? I don't know. I routinely find myself trying to use it, hoping it won't skip, but to no avail. I almost always end up having to watch the DVD on my computer.
Again, perhaps the skippage is due to the environment that the player is in. In any case, I find it practically unusable.
Mixed Emotions.......2003-12-07
I agree with most of the above reviews.I was also disappointed that this changer does not change to the next disc automatically.You would think that a 5 disc changer would play a disc all the way through and go to the next disc number and play that one too.Not so.You cannot randomly play 5 music cds.There are mistakes in the owner's manual.I found this out by calling the 800 number and explaining that the screen does not show what the manual says it should show.Two things that I love about this player:The picture and sound.I hate the fact that on some movies if you stop the player to grab a sandwich and come back and push play again the movie starts all over again.What a pain.Also I wished that when you power up the unit it would not go into autoplay before you get a chance to go to your easy chair and sit down.Subtitles are hard to get rid of.The default position is on.It doesn't matter if you don't speak German or Italian.It will still put the first language listed on the disc subtitles into action.You have to hit Subtitle on remote to turn it off.I like the picture format changer located on the remote.You can changer from letterbox to screen fit with the remote while the movie is playing.I bought mine brand new in box for 69 dollars.
useless as progressive scan DVD player.......2003-12-05
I actually do have an HDTV capable set (one of the Sony 1080i models), and can comment on the video quality of this player. My old Pioneer progressive scan player broke, this player was cheap, and I figure that it would probably be a good choice. My TV accepts 480p signals, and automatically letterboxes 480p signals with anamorphic compression. My biggest beef with this player is that it doesn't properly output an anamorphically compressed 480p signal.
What is anamorphic compression anyway? As you've probably noticed, HDTV sets are wider; they have a 16:9 aspect ratio instead of a 4:3 aspect ratio. When you display a 16:9 picture on a 4:3 set, it is "letterboxed," meaning that there are black bars on the top and bottom of the screen. DVDs are encoded with 480 lines of vertical information. Ideally, you'd want to use all 480 lines for picture, and not for black boxes. That's the problem that anamorphic compression solves: it stretches a letterboxed image out to a 4:3 screen, to make the signal about 33% sharper. Specifically, it means that your DVD player will output a video signal with all 480 lines of resolution, and your TV set will squeeze it onto the right size screen.
The problem with this player is that it does not correctly output an anamorphically compressed widescreen signal. On several discs (like the Matrix), I couldn't get the player to properly output an anamorphically compressed widescreen signal to my TV. So, I had to resort to letterboxing the image, losing 33% of resolution in the process. This causes a greater difference to the picture quality than the difference between a progressive and interlaced signal.
So, in my mind, this is a useless player for the serious videophile. Along with the useless changer mechanism (see the other reviews), I can't recommend this player.
90's technology passed off as current.......2003-11-30
I have to marvel at Samsung's engineering on this product. As is mentioned by dozens of other reviewers, it won't play across discs, random or otherwise. Unbelievable. If a team designing this came to me and told me this was what they were planning on sending out the door, I'd fire all of them on the spot, give them glowing job recommendations to my competitors, and bring in some high school kids that had some vision.
I also tried burning some MP3 and Windows media audio files onto 2 different types of CD media, even at 1x, only to be rewarded with a continuous "loading" message, followed by a message that this disc can't be played. I've also had problems with it locking up completely while playing 2 different DVD's, and needing to be unplugged.
I rate this player not "one star", but "5 poopies". I can't believe that this is a product released since 2000. My old Sony, which I was never that fond of, despite not being billed as being able to play alternate media types, performed the basic functions an order of magnitude better. Samsung should make toasters for a living, home electronics is clearly too challenging for them.
Works Great, Lots of Options.......2003-10-16
No, you can't play CDs randomly. But, if you have a home theather system and need more than 1 set of outputs for audio, both analog and digital, as well as 3 different video output types, this machine is great. The picture is clear, sound is too. For the money, you can't find a better set of features. Everything is easy to use and I haven't even had to look inside the manual yet. And its progressive scan, so it will work with high def TV down the road.

Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy terrific audio-visual quality and multiformat convenience with Denon's DVM-715S 5-DVD/CD changer. The player offers a 12-bit, 54 MHz video digital-to-analog converter (DAC); high-end Burr-Brown 24-bit, 192-kHz audio DACs; and progressive-scan video outputs with acclaimed DCDi processing by Faroudja. The carousel changer plays everything from DVD-Video media to video-mode DVD-R/RW and audio CD, CD-R/RW, as well as CDs bearing MP3 and WMA audio files and JPEG images. Kodak Picture CD offers even greater viewing flexibility, and there's even a 2 MB memory buffer to decrease layer-change pauses or pickup dropouts during DVD playback.
Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVM-715S stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. Composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television.
The DVM-715S also performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24-frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; reverse 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.
A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output (Toslink optical) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. The digital-audio output is configurable for 24-bit, 96 kHz PCM passthrough to compatible receivers and stand-alone DACs.
Other features include black-level control, picture zoom, discrete remote power on/off control, and remote in/out ports for simplified use with other Denon components.

Amazon.com Product Description
Whether you're planning a sing-along party, putting together a digital slideshow for the family, wanting to play homemade MP3/WMA CDs, or simply feeling ready to park yourself in front of five favorite DVDs back to back, the multi-disc, progressive-scanning Apex ADM-5000 is a great choice.
The high-end video outputs of the ADM-5000 deliver the full potential of DVDs, today (if your living room is already home to an HDTV) or tomorrow. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. In any case, standard composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television. Apex's active full screen function (AFF) helps resize widescreen (16:9 aspect ratio) video images to fill 4:3 aspect-ratio sets.
The unit's two karaoke microphone inputs have dedicated volume controls so you can tailor the balance to match the singers and the music sources. A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channels sound to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each optical and coaxial) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver and surround speaker system.

Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. The result is remarkably crisp movies that look as good as the films in your local multiplex. Further video enhancements include a selectable aspect ratio; a Cinema mode that reduces glare, softens resolution, and improves detail in dark scenes; and 4:4:4 signal processing to improve color reproduction and minimize picture noise.
Though DVDs are clearly the main attraction, the SC-HT650 also plays a host of other audio and video formats, including DVD-Video, DVD-RAM, DVD-R, CD, CD-R/RW, DVD-Audio, Video CD, MP3-CD, WMA-CD, and even JPEG image files burned on a CD-R/RW. The DVD-Audio compatibility is particularly pleasing to audiophiles, as the super-high-fidelity (192 kHz/24-bit) discs offer multichannel and stereo sound, incredible storage capacity, and unique bonus materials not available on regular audio CDs.
At the heart of the SC-HT650 is a sophisticated, flexible, easy-to-customize core component for both audio and home theater use. The receiver's Dolby Digital and DTS decoders provide crisp, clear sound, while the Dolby Pro Logic II surround adds richness to movies and music. The receiver also offers several multichannel sound field functions that add advanced A/V effects to your favorite audio and video formats, such as enhancing the dialogue in dramatic movies, enhancing the crowd noises for sporting events, or simulating a live club sound for your favorite music.
The speakers include four bass reflex satellite speakers with 3.12 cone woofers, a single center speaker with a 4-inch cone woofer and 2.38-inch tweeter, and a 200-watt subwoofer with a 6.75-inch cone woofer. The speakers are compact yet robust, with enough power to fill a large living room without taking up excess space.
Additional features include component, S-video, and composite outputs; frame-by-frame and slow motion play; resume play (continues disc from same position it left off); bookmarking; and a host of comprehensive navigation menus. The system's receiver/DVD player measures 16.94 by 4.5 by 14.5 inches (W x H x D), while the satellites check in at 3.47 by 5.31 by 4.59 inches. Other measurements include 8.15 by 4.53 by 5.81 inches for the center speaker and 6.81 by 14.66 by 11.88 inches for the subwoofer. The entire system is backed by a 90-day warranty on parts and labor.
