What Customers Say About Samsung DVD-1080P8 1080p Upconverting DVD Player:

Most of the problems have been in the RV, except for the sound. We bought the campanion DVD in the same brand for campatibity. Once I was told to reconnect it. The sound volume is poor even with HDMI cabling.

Ultimately in the conversation I was disconnected. On several ocassions the play back has be poor, but by moving the unit and using another plug it has worked. It seems to have some problems with self-recored DVDs -- skipping and screen going black for 1-2 seconds. We bought this DVD player to be used with a new Samsung 19" TV in our small RV as well as on a screened porch. I would not recommend this player. I called them 3 times about the volume issue.

After several attempts I used a HMDI cable which did make some improvement. The second call was transferred to the DVD "department" because since the TV worked it had to be the DVD player.

It is also very slow to respond to the remote. The DVD is cheap.

The last call resulted in a suggestion to reset the DVD player. In the RV the sound is not a supreme issue as we are within 6 feet of the TV.

Samsung support gets a mixed review. This did help a bit.

So slow in fact you think you didn't do anything.

The DVD-1080P8 was provided free with the purchase of my Samsung LNT2653H HDTV, as part of an Amazon promotion. Aside from that convenience, I really saw little picture improvement over the ten year old Toshiba progressive scan player it replaced (which has now resumed it's place in my entertainment center) which still functions perfectly.Samsung's standard warranty only covers labor for the first thirty days, and requires that I ship the player to their New Jersey repair facility at my expense. After playing a total of three or four DVDs over a period of a few months, it now refuses to load any DVD. When I attempt to load a disk, the drawer closes and the player struggles mightily for several minutes (I can hear the motor spooling up and down, thumping noises and other interesting mechanical effects) before finally admitting defeat and displaying "No Disk" on the front panel.I did not experience the HDMI interface problems others have reported, and appreciate the simplification provided by replacing separate audio and component cables with a single HDMI cable. Since the combined cost of shipping and labor will undoubtedly exceed the current price of a new unit ($65.00 on Amazon), the DVD-1080P8 is an essentially disposable device. As an engineer, it would not surprise me to find that the same unreliable disk mechanism is used in their other products, such as Blu-ray disk players, since such commonality is a common cost-saving design strategy.

Good picture quality, useful upsampling ability which looks good on my 52" LCD. Annoyingly slow at loading and accessing the disc. Definitely good for the price though. The ability to make it region-free sold it for me.

Just as Batman is swooping in or the armies of Mordor begin to descend, the image breaks up into zebra-stripe-like bands for a moment. The first one I received simply stopped working after three weeks. I would say that I see this happen about once every other movie. Amazon was great about replacing it, but the second unit has not impressed me either. Even with the output set to 720p, it is not unusual to see the picture "band" for a second during action scenes. I'm honestly considering going back to my old reliable DVD player. It may not upscale, but it always maintains solid picture quality.

Everytime I insert a dvd i have to change the resolution. When I bought this DVD player for my new 42" Samsung TV I was skeptical that it really improves the quality of my DVDs.Boy I was WRONG.The Quality of the DVDs were never better almost HD quality. I just watched my old "HELLBOY" dvd on it and it was never better, just superb.There is just only one annoying little problem. I like watching in 1080p. If there any of you guys who know how to make this setting permanent.I alreay tried the setting menu.STILL THIS IS A GREAT PLAYER.
