inferior product but the only game in town
I recently bought my second player hoping that sony might have resolved earlier problems with this machine. No such luck. The interface is the worst imaginable in this day and age. Disc selection remains time consuming. There can be no excuse for the players inability to read any format. The functions and the remote are not intuitive at all. It seems that Sony has forgotten everything that they learned on the setup and functioning of remote controls. My first unit lasted about 18 months and then would not read anything. Thankfully i had purchased an extended warranty which covered the problem. I was sent my purchase price and was told to ditch the machine. I highly recommend extended warranty for this machine as the cost, maybe 20 dollars is ... Read More
Great Product for the Price (with quirks)
I recently purchased this Sony 400 disc changer and so far I am fairly pleased. The only irritating thing that's really come up isn't the fault of the machine but of the DVD publishers that don't put disc information on their discs.
I found that any disc that doesn't pull up information in Windows Media Player will not pull up information on this changer. That's okay, I can type fairly quickly and I have the discs loaded by the order I have them listed in my IMDB record. No biggie. I had read the reviews discussing the clunky remote, so I was aware that I was in for a challenge.
Of the two annoyances I found with operation, were that to get to the Disc Explorer one must A) stop the current playing disc and B) manually ... Read More
Lasted 1 year :-(
I bought this a year ago and it just stopped playing DVDs. It says it cannot read any DVD I have anymore...and it just started doing that in the middle of a movie. CD's still work. Of course w/ Sony's support it is cheaper to buy a new one than have one repaired.
Shop for a better quality player.
so far so good
Sony DVPCX995V 400-Disc DVD Mega Changer/Player was easy to install and works great so far. Basically, I have a huge DVD collection (600+) and needed to free up some valuable space in my living room. I bought this unit to get 400 of those discs off the shelf. So I ordered it, and over the course of waiting for it to arrive, I went through my DVD's one by one, setting select titles aside and creating a paper list adding up to 400 of the discs that I wanted to put into the DVD jukebox (please note that I added up the discs, not the titles, as many DVD purchases come with a bonus disc, and that counts as two discs for a single title). The hardest part was putting part of a movie series like Superman into the jukebox. See, Superman one is two sided with bonus material, where as 2-4 are ... Read More
Bunglers
I can't review Sony DVPCX995V 400-Disc DVD Mega Changer/Player because it was never received. Now, I can't even get a refund of my money which has been held for a month now without the submission of a claim through the A-Z warranty program. The refund may or may not be approved. I'm totally disgusted.
