    This is the best DVD bluray player I've bought, Even though I'm on the second one of this model. The first one flat out just stopped playing bluray discs at about 4 months in. No malfunctions yet. The floor manager at Best Buy said since I've had so much trouble, that I could bring it back for an exchange ANY time. No questions asked.

    At first there was a problem w/ dvd adapting to Snart tv. Many selections on dvd remote. Found correct play button (not obvious choice from previous dvd player). Once it starting playing the sound was muffled. Toward middle of film figured out the audio button needs to be pressed….ugh! All is well now. Haven’t tried a blu-ray film yet.,,,wish me luck!
