affordable and does what it states
I bought this specifically because it advertised being able to play region locked videos. And it does. I tried a variety of DVDs with a variety of damage and everything played well. The remote works perfectly and it is nice and compact so it does not take up too much space. The quality is fine on the TV that I own.

Plug & Play, Automatically play your PAL and NTSC DVDs
I wanted a DVD player that I could watch DVDs I purchased on both Amazon US and Amazon UK. For some reason, depending on what country you bought your DVDs from, they have embedded a specific region code into the disc. UK discs used the PAL format and US discs are formatted using the code NTSC. So here’s the dilemma, not all DVD players can read both kinds of discs. I still don’t understand the reason for this region code system. I live in the US but I can switch to Amazon UK and purchase DVDS there, have them shipped to my US address, but until recentl I had no way to view them because you couldn’t buy a PAL player in the US, and vice versa for the UK not having NTSC players available. Now that we can pick up a player such as this that automatically figures the region code and plays it according to format it’s wonderful. This little miracle machine, is easy as pie to set up, just plug it in to electric and, second plug goes into an available HDMI slot in the back of the TV. That’s it. Now I can watch my US region code discs of The Office and What We Do In The Shadows. Then pop them out and put in my UK region code discs of Plebs and Inside No. 9. And any other of my favorite shows no matter where I bought it. I have an HD Samsung smart TV and what this little DVD player sends to my screen is 100% HD. Not an ounce of degradation. I wish these region free DVD players were always available.*Edit – I’ve had this DVD player for almost a year, and I picked up one for my 80+ year old Mama this week because I haven’t had any problems with my original player. I’m writing this edit because I noticed a few people have had problems recently. I use mine a good amount, had it for almost a year, moved it around in different places in the house, my cat has been known to sit on top of it by the TV, and it survived quite nicely. It’s not an expensive machine so if it does poop out after a while I would feel like I got my monies worth. And finally, I mentioned my 80+ yr old Mom because it’s easy for her to use as well. She’s not really tech savvy but after I gave her a quick demo she can work it. It’s very simple actually. One button turns it on and off, one opens and closes the disc door, and there you go. Included remote is also simply set up and not too small.

Working CD player/Good Sound
Not a whole lot to say it sounds good and works well and was very cheap cost. Only complaint that keeps it from 5 star is like a lot of other cheaper, lightweight electronics, if you hit one of the buttons on the actual unit itself too hard the whole thing will slide. Not a huge deal and it has a remote. Would def recommend. Cannot speak on the DVD capabilities as I don’t use those anymore.

Great Cheap DVD Player
Very inexpensive player. I was a bit reluctant to purchase at first because of the low cost, but I figured what the heck, it was worth the risk. Obviously doesn’t provide all the features that some players have, but as a secondary player, it is just right. The wife uses it to play her daily exercise disks, and it works great for that purpose.

Works as promised
I bought this to replace a DVD player I bought 2 years ago that was advertised as multi-region but was not. The Megatek player was simple to set up. I just plugged it in and connected it to the TV with the HDMI cable and tried out the NTSC region 1 DVD that the other player wouldnât play and it played perfectly. Then I tried a PAL region 4 DVD and it played perfectly. It seems to upscale to HD nicely. The remote works well too. I am pleased we finally have a way to watch all the DVDs in our collection.

Nice little player
For the price, and for my use, this player is great for both cds and dvds. I am using it through a 20 year old receiver that has an optical digital socket that allows my smart tv to play through stereo speakers that are set up on analog stations in the receiver which are also connected to the tv through rca cables..and more importantly for use with this dvd/cd player, there is also a coaxial socket. This player also has an hdmi socket that connects to the tv only.. I tried that hdmi connection and didn’t like the audio. However, I am now using a new coax cable and a better quality hdmi cable.. I use the hdmi for video and the other is for audio and it is producing excellent sound and picture quality. The resolution is excellent and there are buttons on this player’s remote that control the resolution. The first dvd started automatically with subtitles, but there is a button on the remote to shut that off.. the menu allows you took pick different lanquages, but the shut off appears to be on the remote only. So far, every button on the remote works, power, open/close, and all other basics.. It’s completely adequate. I’m no electronic genius, it did take me a while to get this all working, but that’s not the player’s fault.. one issue I had was that I couldn’t use it as a cd player without having the tv on.. but that is resolved with the coax. The cds play now with just the player and it’s good stereo audio, the dvds play through player with dolby sound quality.. it’s really good for the money, I think.

Compre el reproductor de DVR y CD que él proveedor publica en este espacio y me ha parecido muy aceptable, el poco tiempo que lo he usado ha sido excelente y ha cumplido con mis expectativas, cumple con las caracterÃsticas especÃficadas en la publicación, tiene un excelente sonido, tiene buena nitidez en las imágenes y por ende lo encuentro muy acertado, no tengo ningún inconveniente en recomendarlo ampliamente, completare mis comentarios más adelante una vez que lo evalúe con mayor detenimiento.

The DVD player looks good. The picture is clear. I have successfully played DVDs made in USA, UK, and India. I have also played NTSC and PAL DVDs. The loading time is fast. However, the DVD player comes with a foreign plug. I had to buy an adapter for Rs. 30/-from the local market. A converter like this and a pair of AAA batteries should have been included with the DVD player, which would have made it ready for use. Otherwise, we are happy with the player after one day’s use. It has a warranty of one year.

I set up an out-of-use (HDMI-capable) TV in my exercise room and wanted a DVD player to go with it. I figured I would buy this one for my main TV and move my cheapie DVD player from there to this new setup. But the feature that allows DVDs to be played where you left off was attractive. I don’t finish a DVD before I finish exercising, so I decided to use this player in the exercise room. BTW, that feature works well and is VERY handy. The picture is good as is the audio. I also was able to play an out-of-zone DVD with no trouble. For the price asked, it seems good value for all the features. I haven’t linked the TV and DVD remotes so can’t say about the ease of this. But it all setup easily, except…[UPDATE Aug 23, 2020: Even though my old cheapie player still works, it does not have HDMI, upscaling, multi-zone, or last play memory, so I bought a second one of these Megatek players for my main TV setup. The one described below with the 4:3 problem is hooked up to an inexpensive Insignia TV. I now have more experience playing the other one, which is hooked up to an expensive and more recent LG OLED TV. With this setup, I CAN get 4:3 playback using HDMI. I have to go into the LG’s setup menu and select 4:3, but it all works. BTW, the picture does look good (relatively speaking since this is older material I’m looking at). So as I suspected, it seems that the TV in use DOES come into play regarding 4:3 playback using HDMI. The catch seems to be not with this DVD player, but the TV in use with it. It is impossible to know what the situation will be with your TV’s interaction with this DVD player until you try it. I never had this problem with my old player and the Insignia TV because I could only use component. When I swapped in this Megatek player I assumed the problem previously described below was with the player. My apologies to Megatek. I’ll go 5 stars.]Many of the DVDs I play on this set are of older material. Specifically, they are in 4:3 (old TV) format. I have found that if you only hook up HDMI and play back using HDMI, the 4:3 source material will be stretched left and right. Personally, I do not like this effect. I have thoroughly gone through the setup menus of both this player and my TV and cannot override this. The workaround is to hook the DVD player to the TV with component cables. (Possibly the single-cable ‘Video’ output/input would work, too, but that really is poor quality, even for this older material.)When you insert a 4:3 DVD you can go to SETUP > GENERAL > TV DISPLAY >and set to 16:9, and this should now display 4:3 format discs in the center of the screen (i.e. no stretching). But, this only works with component cabling, not HDMI. (If you do use component cabling, make sure to go SETUP > VIDEO > COMPONENT > and set to YUV, or you will get nothing through those component cables.) It is possible that your TV will display 4:3 normally (depending on the TV and the settings).Component cabling doesn’t allow for the same video quality as HDMI. But source material old enough to be in 4:3 is likely to NOT be in high-def. So, this isn’t a big problem. And you can still hook up using HDMI cable as well, and toggle back and forth with your TV remote. It isn’t an elegant solution, but works well enough. Luckily I still had some decent quality video and audio cables to do this extra hookup.

Ok, to be fair I just plugged everything in and itâs now playing my favourite CD. Tested and works with my USB drive too. So far, so good ð For SGD100 it is doing its job decently, and it is able to do the same in one yearâs time I would have gotten my moneyâs worth ð Go for it ððð

For the fisrt hour I was impressed. Easy setup and decent upscaling, then:There is one big problem. On commercial DVDs (Rome, Sopranos, The Office) each DVD has several episodes. The first and second episode plays fine, and the upscaling good too. Sadly, It will not play later episodes. Sopranos – Disk 1. Episode 1, 2, 3 work. Episode 4 wont’s even start. Rome season 1,The second DVD has 3 episodes. 1, great. 2, near the end the picture gets progressively worse until it freezes. Using the menu to play the final 3rd episode fails completely – total freeze.The Office, Uk. Season 1, first 3 episodes play fine. 4,5,6, won’t even start.I have setup and resetup several times. Cleaned disks. Checked all connections. Tried two different high quality HDMI cables. Even tried using a different HDMI port on my TV. I know well about AV equipment and have ruled out bad connection, faulty cable, broken/scratched disk, TV issue, and have fully reset the player several times, including uplugging from the power, leaving it, then setting up again.Bottom line. It can only read the first parts of a DVD with episodes on it.The result is always the same. (See “Update,” below important.)This is upsetting because the upscaling is good for the price. (HDMI). However it’s kind of useless now as I can only watch the first one or two episodes of any drama/HBO series etc on any and all disks tried same problem.Update====== The Amazon market place seller was extremely helpful and sent me a new one at no cost to me.Incredibly, this one has the same issues. It can play the beginning of disks fine, but cannot go past half way.I will not request another replacement. This is a product with low quality components. Two brand new players with the same issue is too much for coincidence.Others have had similar problems so I will trouble shoot a few more days, but I am quite sure it won’t work.The only good thing is the kindness of the seller. Regarding the product, very disappointed and cannot recommend.
