I recently purchased this DVD-changer, and I'm thrilled with it. There are more than enough features to keep you busy, and it's a very good looking unit. But what's most important here is that the video and audio are INCREDIBLE! Really, you can't go wrong, especially for the price. The remote isn't any worse than most out there these days. Unless you spend big $$$, they always give you a cheap remote. But I'm notoriously picky about video equipment, and the Pioneer has exceeded my expectations.

Brief highlights include: Built-in digital decoder with outputs for coax and optical, as well as six analog outs. Component, s-video, and composite video outputs. User-friendly menu system with graphical on-screen interface. Picture adjustment for regular, cinema, or animation (cinema is stunning). Beautiful color and clarity. Fast access to layer-switches, and scene changes. Onboard memory for retaining setup options of 15 DVDs (very handy), and the unit will remember where you... Read more

Nowadays, more and more computer companies are producing computers with the video editing and production functions. Sony, Dell, Compaq and iMac AVs are examples of these machines that come with video editing components and a CD burner for you to burn your own movie, or, Video CD on a CD. However, unlike people in China or Japan, where video cd players are more popular than DVD players, people in the US will soon find that their home DVD players are not able to play video CDs. Some of the units will be able to play Video CDs encoded using the version 1 standards, but not able to play VCD version 2 or 3 standards. Other DVD units simply do not accept Video CDs recorded on a CD-R. This Pioneer is one of the Pioneer DVD families that fully accept a "home-made" video cd. This makes sharing your vocation CD with your grandma's family on her big screen TV and home theater possible. Another beautiful function of this unit is that you may stop at anytime while you're...

I love my pioneer dvc302d dvd player. The picture and sound quality issuperb. The looks of it are also very nice. The only drawback from aperfect 5 star product was the forward and reverse scanning feature. Instead of having both a quick moving,smooth search/scan and fast scan,it only has a fast scan which tends to overpass a section one may be searching for. I am a big fan of new technologies and the price for this product is just right. The three disc tray is also great...not too many as a 5 disc and definatley better than one.Just be careful not to stare too long at the little blue light. Its aura is hypnotizing. just as a reminder,pioneer was the first to have it. Now the other companies are copying it. Pioneer was also the first in laser video. You cant go wrong here.
