Because it occurred to me to give them a combi player so rest. Important features were here, usability and format diversity.
In both disciplines, these players convinced. I was really surprised that my father called and said that the DVD player his homemade critical DVDs, JPEG CDs, MP3s and DivX discs plays absolutely sovereign. None of his other 3 DVD player does. He has this also been disposed of.
I could then persuade a cozy afternoon even a few hours of the image quality in both the DVD / CD range and in VHS area and I must say that this player here has no weaknesses.
Except one. He has no ShowView !!! For me, especially my parents who do not want to torment dozens submenus, an absolute must to program recordings. Especially for a device in this price range.
This was also the reason why I have sent back the players and had then ordered the LG-V280 (see review)
Conclusion: Beautiful player, no problems with formats, low running noise but no ShowView. Intermediate price. Therefore only 3 stars.
