Product Description

Samsung's latest generation DVD players bring a new level of performance and prestige to this fast growing format. Samsung DVD players are specifically designed to deliver the ultimate in picture quality and convenient features. The DVD format has grown incredibly over the past few years and Samsung has delivered players with all the features you are looking for.PRODUCT FEATURES:5 Disc Progressive Scan DVD Player;Slim Design (less than 80mm);Mecha Speed Changer;MP3/WMA Playback;VCD/SVCD/DVD-R Playback.

Amazon.com Product Description

Samsung's titanium-finished DVD-C631P five-disc carousel changer dishes up favorite movies and music, featuring high-end component-video outputs, built-in MP3 and WMA (Windows Media Audio) decoding, and compatibility with JPEG image CDs and Kodak Picture CDs so you can enjoy a slideshow of digital pictures right on a television.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVD-C631P stands ready to deliver the full potential of DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, provides higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. In addition, top-of-the-line component-video outputs help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts on compatible advanced televisions, while composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television.

A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. Another handy feature is EZ-View letterbox eliminator, which makes it easy to enjoy full-screen pictures on 4:3 aspect-ratio TVs--even when you're watching widescreen DVDs. Supplied accessories include a composite-video/stereo analog-audio interconnect, instruction manual, and a remote control.

Seriously...what's the deal?.......2004-03-30

The picture quality this player produces is quite up to par. The sound quality is also good. I have but one qualm with this product...a major qualm, actually:

It is not good at actually playing DVDs. The tiniest scuff or scratch results in audio/video skippage. I have attempted to clean the player numerous times, but to no avail. Perhaps my room is far too dusty? I don't know. I routinely find myself trying to use it, hoping it won't skip, but to no avail. I almost always end up having to watch the DVD on my computer.

Again, perhaps the skippage is due to the environment that the player is in. In any case, I find it practically unusable.

Mixed Emotions.......2003-12-07

I agree with most of the above reviews.I was also disappointed that this changer does not change to the next disc automatically.You would think that a 5 disc changer would play a disc all the way through and go to the next disc number and play that one too.Not so.You cannot randomly play 5 music cds.There are mistakes in the owner's manual.I found this out by calling the 800 number and explaining that the screen does not show what the manual says it should show.Two things that I love about this player:The picture and sound.I hate the fact that on some movies if you stop the player to grab a sandwich and come back and push play again the movie starts all over again.What a pain.Also I wished that when you power up the unit it would not go into autoplay before you get a chance to go to your easy chair and sit down.Subtitles are hard to get rid of.The default position is on.It doesn't matter if you don't speak German or Italian.It will still put the first language listed on the disc subtitles into action.You have to hit Subtitle on remote to turn it off.I like the picture format changer located on the remote.You can changer from letterbox to screen fit with the remote while the movie is playing.I bought mine brand new in box for 69 dollars.

useless as progressive scan DVD player.......2003-12-05

I actually do have an HDTV capable set (one of the Sony 1080i models), and can comment on the video quality of this player. My old Pioneer progressive scan player broke, this player was cheap, and I figure that it would probably be a good choice. My TV accepts 480p signals, and automatically letterboxes 480p signals with anamorphic compression. My biggest beef with this player is that it doesn't properly output an anamorphically compressed 480p signal.

What is anamorphic compression anyway? As you've probably noticed, HDTV sets are wider; they have a 16:9 aspect ratio instead of a 4:3 aspect ratio. When you display a 16:9 picture on a 4:3 set, it is "letterboxed," meaning that there are black bars on the top and bottom of the screen. DVDs are encoded with 480 lines of vertical information. Ideally, you'd want to use all 480 lines for picture, and not for black boxes. That's the problem that anamorphic compression solves: it stretches a letterboxed image out to a 4:3 screen, to make the signal about 33% sharper. Specifically, it means that your DVD player will output a video signal with all 480 lines of resolution, and your TV set will squeeze it onto the right size screen.

The problem with this player is that it does not correctly output an anamorphically compressed widescreen signal. On several discs (like the Matrix), I couldn't get the player to properly output an anamorphically compressed widescreen signal to my TV. So, I had to resort to letterboxing the image, losing 33% of resolution in the process. This causes a greater difference to the picture quality than the difference between a progressive and interlaced signal.

So, in my mind, this is a useless player for the serious videophile. Along with the useless changer mechanism (see the other reviews), I can't recommend this player.

90's technology passed off as current.......2003-11-30

I have to marvel at Samsung's engineering on this product. As is mentioned by dozens of other reviewers, it won't play across discs, random or otherwise. Unbelievable. If a team designing this came to me and told me this was what they were planning on sending out the door, I'd fire all of them on the spot, give them glowing job recommendations to my competitors, and bring in some high school kids that had some vision.

I also tried burning some MP3 and Windows media audio files onto 2 different types of CD media, even at 1x, only to be rewarded with a continuous "loading" message, followed by a message that this disc can't be played. I've also had problems with it locking up completely while playing 2 different DVD's, and needing to be unplugged.

I rate this player not "one star", but "5 poopies". I can't believe that this is a product released since 2000. My old Sony, which I was never that fond of, despite not being billed as being able to play alternate media types, performed the basic functions an order of magnitude better. Samsung should make toasters for a living, home electronics is clearly too challenging for them.

Works Great, Lots of Options.......2003-10-16

No, you can't play CDs randomly. But, if you have a home theather system and need more than 1 set of outputs for audio, both analog and digital, as well as 3 different video output types, this machine is great. The picture is clear, sound is too. For the money, you can't find a better set of features. Everything is easy to use and I haven't even had to look inside the manual yet. And its progressive scan, so it will work with high def TV down the road.

Likes to blow smoke and splatter electrolyte, but still works! =).......2006-03-12

I've had 5 of these make a popping noise, put out a bit of smoke, and eject some electrolyte (presumably all from a popping capacitor). However, after these episodes, they've all worked just fine. I'm using the 12 V setting, no idea how it'll work for 5 V.

They were popping when connected to a Netgear fs108p switch. After manually adding ground to the switch, no more of these babies have popped. Kinda miss it, to be honest... but it's nice not to have to worry about the sprinklers going off.

Great Product!.......2006-07-01

Product is GREAT! I had a UPS System that needed a new battery and I installed this one. Was easy to install and has been working perfectly since. I highly recommend it!

New life for an old UPS.......2005-10-01

My several-years-old APC BackUPS 650 failed after long and faithful service. The problem was not with the UPS electronics, but merely the battery, so I ordered a replacement. Installation was a no-brainer, taking almost no time at all. Bingo -- the BackUPS is as good as new! I want a longer run-time on my computer for those rare power outages that last more than a few minutes, so I'll be buying a larger APC UPS in the near future. The existing unit will move to a TV and other home entertainment equipment, where I'm confident it will outlast most of the devices I'll plug into it.

RBC2 Battery for UPS backup.......2007-08-31

Appears to be working fine. Of course it hasn't been installed but a month or so...ask me again in a year or so.

reliable.......2007-07-28

works great in our backup system, over a year and no problems. will use this brand again

It works.......2006-03-14

I've replaced the batteries in two of my APC UPS devices and both have worked.
I replaced my APC Back-UPS 500 battery a few months ago and have had a few power cuts since then and it hasn't failed yet.

I also replaced the battery in an APC Back-UPS CS a few weeks ago and that has also kept the PC running during a couple of power cuts so far.

I haven't used it with monitoring software so I don't know if it gives the correct information on the remaining battery life.

Update Feb 2007:

It's been over a year since I replaced my batteries and they're still working even after many power outages.

BackUPS.......2006-02-18

Battery arrived quickly and works great. The only problem that I see is that they don't provide an evelope for the old battery.

Used this to replace a battery that had gone bad in an APC Back-UPS 100. This replacement battery works fine. Can't give it five stars, though because, at this point, I don't know how long it will last (which is the real test :)).
