Manufacturer's Description
Studio quality sound and images, plus a wealth of extra information on a CD-sized disc: DVD will revolutionise your TV viewing. Enhanced audio and video tracks, extra footage or multiple language soundtracks are now customary on any new DVD, alongside six-channel Dolby Digital sound. As a pioneer of DVD technology, Toshiba has ensured that this DVD player is a star performer.

The Toshiba SD-360E DVD Player is a marvel for the money. Ultra-sleek and slim, on top of the standard DVD player features, Toshiba have crammed in DivX, MP3 and JPEG format playback (handy if you have albums of images, music or downloaded programmes to playback on your standard television).

And, whether connecting to a conventional television or a high-end plasma or LCD, Toshiba provide options for the best picture quality with RGB scart, component video and HDMI outputs, complete with video resolution upscaling, to deliver the best picture with high-definition plasma and LCD displays.

Customer Reviews

Good value for money
Disappointed that it doesn't have S-VHS output (though it has HDMI) nor optical out. Never mind, video connection easy and good picture. Progressive scan great.

** Important ** the unlock code for this unit differs to the predecessors (340E and 350E). Open the drawer, and use remote control to type "2-4-0-3-9-6-0-9" setting unit to all regions. If you look at the screen when you type the last digit you will see "9" appear briefly (all regions).
If you need a specific region for a RCA encoded disk substitute the region of the disk for the "9" at the end e.g.: 24039602 for region 2.

5 Stars would have been for the asking had it not been for the lack of S-VHS and quite a bright blue bar light that is on when the unit is switched on.

Hope this is useful to you.

The good, the bad and the ugly
The good: DivX support, up-scales your current DVD collection, small and compact, it is multiregion with a simple code....

Multi Region via remote control:
Open the tray.
Type 2,4,0,3,9,6,0.
Your region will be shown.
Press enter to cycle to region 9 (region free).
Close the tray.
Turn the player off.
Turn it back on.

The bad: No HDMI cable in the box (unlike Samsung HD850), bright blue LED lights up the room when turned on

The ugly: compared with the Samsung HD850 which is not much more expensive the design is terrible, it isn't offensive, but doesn't look very stylish either, oh well, at least it's thin!

I gave this product 4/5 stars because the the unit plays Divx movies really well, which was a big plus for me, the fact that it doesn't come with a HDMI cable (the Samsung HD850 does) is not the end of the world, the Samsung one would probably have poor sheilding, better to get a quality one anyway.

I have a toshiba LCD TV and the remote is able to control this unit too so it was a big plus as I dont have to use yet another remote.

The picture quality is top notch, despite the fact the Samsung HD850 looks so much better and comes with HDMI cable I am glad I bought the Toshiba, I will put some layers of black insulation tape over the blue LED however!!

Great player for the price
I bought this player to connect to a Tosh LCD screen, I think it is a great bit of kit for the price, but one thing they don't mention in the manual is that if you plan to hook it up with an HDMI cable (supplied free) you first need to connect with a scart lead (not supplied) to access the DVD's set up menu and then activate the HDMI socket.
