The RCA DRC510N has a lot of features and puts out a great picture, but the 5-disc changer is what sold me; however, it was disappointing to find out that the remote does not allow you to switch to a different disc, at the end of one DVD it does not automatically start playing the next disc, and also MP3 discs do not automatically play, instead a menu appears on your screen and you have to make a selection. So at the end of the day, the 5-disc changer is only really a 5-disc storage bin and you have to get off the sofa to switch between discs.

The player would be great except for a "fatal" flaw -- the remote does not have a disc skip button! This means that the 5-disc player is really only a one-disc player -- you still have to get up and manually control the player to change discs.

If you're looking for a one-disc player, you should consider this one. Otherwise, it is very disappointing.

I bought this player 6 months ago and it just died. You actually can skip DVDs from the remote. You just have to hit the numbers on the remote numbered 1-5 and it will skip to the corresponding DVD. The thing that annoyed me most about this player is that there was no way to tell what DVDs were loaded in the unit. You either had to remember what "DVD in tray number 3" was or go through every DVD until you got the correct one.
