The Oritron is an unbeatable value! It does, and has, just about all the options some other supposedly ''high-end'' players have and still manages to do it all very cheaply. I was very impressed with the build of the unit itself and the packaging it came in, which, subconsciously at least, all add to a product's reputation. Unlike what some have said, this player indeed does have Dolby 5.1 built-in and DTS pass-through. You use the digital coaxial output line to hook this baby up to your home reciever or shelf system and you're ready for some surround sound fun. The quality of a DVD picture is going to be just beautiful; there isn't going to be a difference in the picture this player outputs from an expensive Panasonic deal, I assure you. I have no doubts about that. It has parental lock-out, which is a good feature that some more expensive don't have, it has a zoom function (not that many people use that), and it even has S-Video capability. I wholeheartedly recommend you pick this player up. Skip all those other overpriced models with essential the same features; it'd be stupid to do otherwise.

Anyone who wants a cheap DVD player can get this one for a real bargain. You can play all the DVDs you want and it is very easy. I love this!

You get what you pay for. This unit's remote is very fragile. Keys constantly stick. The unit has trouble reading just about any disc and is very tempermental. Very cheap feel to the controls. Save your money./

Excellent product for the price. However, if you plan to play DTS music CD's, this machine will not let you do it (refer to the editorial reviews). I bought a dts music cd and have wondered for a long time why I cound't play it on this Oritron dvd player... However, consider dts cd music cd's are rare and rather expensive, you may save yourself a bundle buying this machine.

I bought the Oritron DVD 100. The quality of the picture is very good. This unit is good enough to enter the world of DVD UNTIL the DVD recordable players enter the market. This is the main reason why I did not buy a high end DVD player.
