Tevion SD HDMI Dvd player

MarkR

Any point to getting one? I've a hdtv (sony 50" rptv). My current dvd playback comes from a targa dvd hdd recorder running on a component at 576p. Worth the move for a "virtual" d pic?

Hi MarkR, have the same tv with a Sony DVD upscaler, deffo worthwhile, especially as it includes a HDMI lead for that price

I got one, everything seems fine except I can't get it to play xvids/divxs. This could be my own fault though; I just burnt a couple of them to DVD (using the option "make a DVD ROM" in Nero) and expected that the machine would pick up the files as a list but it doesn't.

Does anybody know if this was the right thing to do, if so then maybe the codecs are wrong or something? Any help is appreciated

Afaik.. you should be making a DATA disk.

I bought one of these and think for the money its excellent value. I have just watched Prison Break from a 512mb SDcard. The pic and sound quality were excellent and it did not go out of sync once.

I have only tried the HDMI connection so cant comment on the scart audio problem.

thanks for the reply; now for another stupid noob question - in Nero I have the following options; "DVD ROM (ISO)", "DVD Copy", "DVD Video", "DVD ROM (Boot)", "DVD ROM (UDF)" and "DVD ROM (UDF/ISO)". Which one should I pick to make a data disc? I went with the DVD ROM (ISO) last time...

actually, I've found an option to create a data disc in Nero Express. I'll give this a go.

thanks.

Thats the job.

That worked perfectly, thanks for your help folks.

Would recommend this player - great little machine.

I'm having the same problem - the sound through the scart is atrocious! Extremely low and very annoying. Might bring it back so!

Does it have an optical output for audio?

Aquos76

Yes it does have Optical Out.
