WHY ARE THESE UNITS SO POPULAR??? Still one of the best players Panasonic has made to date (reviews support that) and unlike many later units due to cost cutting, most units up to £200 no longer carry any of the following:
  • DivX, MKV, MP3, FLAC
  • Slim unit 
  • CINAVIA free - play downloaded back ups
  • Legacy connections including: composite & optical (for sound bars and non HDMI amps)
  • Metal casework with a plastic coat (unlike later plastic versions) offer stable pictures (less jitter) and why most expensive premium players today are metal cased.
  • DVD upscaling - many later player have poor up-scaling as concentration is on blu-ray playback


Why Do I Want the DVD Multi-region Version?

You can quite often buy a Region DVD movie before the same movie is at the Cinema in the UK! The discs usually work out much cheaper (especially for special editions or Disney Movies), with more features on a disc, and a larger choice then on Region 2. Almost all discs are available with DTS soundtracks as standard.

All DVD players purchased in the UK are Region 2. Therefore, you need to modify a Region 2 machine to "multi-region" - this will then play any original DVD movie, from any region in the world.
