RE: Is there a multiregion TV/DVD combi ??

You could always get the 14" TV/DVD Combi from Sainsburys which is multi-region out of the box. Bought one this time last year for £99.99 and is great. Its now priced at £89.99 which is even better value for money.

Plays vcd/svcd/dvdr/dvdrw and played my region 0,1,2,3 and RCE disks with no trouble at all.

RE: Aldi Tevion 8 in 1 Remote is back £4.99!!

programmed one for my dad yesterday as the buttons on his satellite remote were faulty and a replacement would cost £70.

£4.99 -BARGAIN when it learnt the key functions and works a treat. i just hope he gets used to using 1 remote instead of 4.

RE: What uni did you go to?

Hatfield Campus at Hertfordshire University too.

Graduated in 1999. I might of seen you folks there!

RE: Hikona TDVD-1001 from Tesco

are trying to play non PAL dvd`s as your Minato tv might not be able to accept NTSC signals which is why its coming out black and white.

RE: Cheap Progressive Scan / Component DVD Player - £29.99

Was in my local Tesco`s (Lee Valley - Edmonton/London) and they had 100`s on the shelves. You might want to try another Tesco`s.

Its a Hikona DVD-1001 DVD PLAYER priced at £29.97.

RE: Cheap Progressive Scan / Component DVD Player - £29.99

Hasn`t got Component connections for progressive scan so isn`t comparable.

Cheap Progressive Scan / Component DVD Player - £29.99

Was in my local Tesco`s this weekend and noticed they had a dirt cheap dvd player for £29.99.

I am not out to buy a new player but the slim and shiny styling made me investigate more. It was a `Hitamo` or `Hikamo`, cant remember exactly but the box had progressive scan written on it and upon looking at the back of it it had component. I thought this was really good for a budget player so if anyone has one any experiences would be appreciated and maybe tempted to purchase one.

Its not listed online so must be an instore promotion.

RE: Free coffee maker (with 2 cups)

Ordered it too.

Hopefully, once received we all don`t get invoiced from them, after we all have used them.

"Dear sir/madam,

Since you have used the coffee maker, we are unable to accept the item back as we will no longer be able to re-sell the coffee maker. Please fill in the mandoratory form below which will enable us to debit £19.99 from your account.

yours sincerely........Mr I Rippeduoff (Grattan sales representative)


Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: GDVD143FM (wrong disc error message)

Make sure you have enabled the multi-region setup properly and if you are trying to play vcd/svcds then make sure you have enabled this too. If you are trying to play copied dvd`s from abroad then this will occur occasionally as it has something to do with the type of mechanism you have in your machine.

Region code again:


To convert this player to Multi-Region
1. Press the Open button on your remote control to open the drive tray
2. Press the Setup button on your remote control
3. Press the Next button on your remote control
4. Press the Previous button on your remote control
5. Press the Next button on your remote control
6. Press the Previous button on your remote control
7. A code should appear on the top left hand corner of the onscreen display
8. Using the Left and Right direction buttons on your remote control, change the code to VER 1 for region 1 playback, VER 2 for region 2, and so on, or VER 255 for multi-region playback
NB: You may need to use the up and down buttons to select the region option before you change it
9. You can also change the code to VER 3001 to enable parental controls, or VER 3000 to disable these controls
NB: You may need to use the up and down buttons to select the parental controls option before you change it
10. You can also change the code to VER 4001 to enable Macrovision, or VER 4000 to disable this feature
NB: You may need to use the up and down buttons to select the Macrovision option before you change it
11. You can also change the code to VER 5001 to disable VCD/SVCD playback, or VER 5000 to enable this feature
NB: You may need to use the up and down buttons to select the VCD/SVCD playback option before you change it
12. Press the Setup button on your remote control

RE: Lodos DVD Player £30

Any chance you can try avi and divx files to see if they play?

RE: Lodos DVD Player £30

`pointsofviw`

I bought it at Christmas for £100 and noticed they still had them yesterday for the same price when i visited Sainsbury`s. Saw the dvd player but didn`t get one.

RE: Lodos DVD Player £30

I bought a 14" dvd/tv combi and is really good. It was multi-region out of the box and plays avi`s.

I wonder if this standalone dvd player is identical?
If it does play avi`s i might get one myself.

RE: Freeview-Quick One

Goto Sainsbury as they do a Goodmans clone freeview box rebranded under the Lodos name which is being sold for £50. Has had good reviews and is by far the cheapest around.

RE: Sainsburys sells TV and DVD combi for under £100

Can confirm that the tv/dvd combi is multi-region out of the box.
I was able to play region 0,1,2 and 3 dvd`s. Also, had no problems with vcd originals and on cdr.
