Customer Reviews

Toshiba SD280E - DVD Player
Good little player. Excellent picture and sound quality on standard shop bought DVDs. Easily converts to multi-region as reported by other reviewers so I can play my 30+ DVDs sourced in the USA. Does struggle with DVDs from other recorders though. DVD-Rs can 'jump' and sometimes pixelate. Warning! this player will NOT play DVD-RW 'VR' or DVD-RAM discs. So all the discs I created and edited to remove the adverts, will not play. I confirmed this with Toshiba technical support. Still a nice well-built player for the money though.

Great Bargain Price DVD Player
Having been very happy with Toshiba products in the past- a microwave oven which finally had to be replaced after 24 years and my Toshiba rear projection tv, I decided to replace my Phillips player which died exactly one week after the 12 month expiry. As I have a huge collection of dvds from diferent regions, the first port of call was the multi-region hack. This was accomplished in seconds. The box says that it will play dvd-r's that are recorded on a dvd recorder but might not play others. However it plays the several PC recorded dvd-r's I've so far tried perfectly. Highly recommended. I just hope Toshiba are still building their products with the same durability I've come to expect and appreciate.

Great DVD player at a bargin price
Was looking for a DVD player to replace a nasty cheapo Currys one that refused to play burnt DVD's, ended up buying this Tosh SD270 and i have to say its a great little player.

As i haven't yet succumbed to the "posh telly" influences on the high street the lack of HDMI port didn't affect my decision, it has component connections if and when i do require something to upscale to 720p/1080i (don't worry, i don't really understand that last bit either)

To get this machine to perform as a multi region player simply follow the following instructions

The Hack Procedure:
- Power On
- Open Tray
- Press 9879 0 (0 stands for Multiregion, you may press buttons 1 to 6 to choose a specific region)
- A Message appears stating that "The Reg.No was changed to: [insert whatever region (0-6) you selected here]"

That's all, now you can watch every DVD you please... :)

All in all, for £30Toshiba SD280E - DVD Player ish delivered within 3 days, i refuse to grumble, it looks nice, has played everything i've tried including some DivX stuff burnt straight from my PC, and all in all i'm a very happy bunny

Now if someone could help me find a 32" LCD for around £100 i'll be even happier
