Since companies like Excalibur and VCX seem determined to release their films as DVD-R's I'm looking at upgrading to a newer DVD player with DVD-R capability.

I'm looking at the Panasonic S35, does anyone here have this model and if so how is it?

Can anyone recommend some other quality players that I might want to check out.

Thanks

www.vcdhelp.com

has a good list of DVD players and what their capabilities are.
You can find DVD players that play SVCD, SACD, DVD-Audio and much more...

of course it also contains material of "questionable" intent.

Flash,

If I might suggest a player. I bought one of these Liteon units, and I have been incredibly impressed. It plays almost anything... literally.

*PAL or NTSC
*All Regions
*DVD-R(W) and DVD+R(W)
*CDR(W)
*DVD, VCD, SVCD, XVCD, CVD
*DIVX/XVID
*.AVI and .MPG files
*.JPG, .MP3 and .WMF files
*mix and match files on any ISO DVDR or CDR
*MMC, SD, CF and MemoryStick support

Seriously, this thing rocks!

ABC, do you have to flash the memory or
put in a code to make it multi-region?

Thats nice abe! Not to expensive at 170 on ebay, plus its vcr friendly so you can have it hooked up along with a vcr on your tv without having any problems. (or so it says, I've never used one myself)

Another option would be the Sony SLV D300P dual deck dvd/vhs player. Which runs an everage of 200. It plays +/- dvd r(w) so it should be hard to find a disc it wont play, well excluding pal discs, its not multi-region like the liteon.

Scott, you can do it with a series of keypresses on the remote. They reveal a hidden menu that sets this stuff up.

However, you should flash the BIOS regularly to get the upgrades that Liteon keeps providing for DIVX/XVID support.

Thanks, it's similar to my Apex player.
