    It is great, but has an annoying humming that is sometimes loud. Otherwise, my husband loves it.

    Very simple to operate! The remote chooses randomly to play with the play button or the center control button. Don't know why, but otherwise is fine.

      Thank you for the review, VirginiaB!

      We are happy to hear that you're finding your BDP-S1700 easy to operate. Regarding the playback controls, the center "Enter" button and the "Play" button can sometimes behave similarly depending on which on-screen menu is active, but we appreciate you bringing this inconsistency to our attention. It’s great to know that everything else is working well for you!

      Thank you for choosing Sony!
