Okay….but!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!
