LP-099 Multi Region Code Zone Free PAL/NTSC HD DVD Player CD Player with HDMI AV Output & Remote & USB Input & MIC Input - Compact Design (Black)

I bought this DVD player to play English “Last of the Summer Wine” DVDs - and it plays them flawlessly! I recently bought the complete Bonanza DVD set, which are American versions. My Sony blu-ray player has big problems playing some of the Bonanza set, but this DVD player has no problems with them at all. It also fits the image to the full screen unlike the blu-ray player. The picture quality is excellent. I highly recommend this DVD player!

Having been stationed overseas in Europe, I accumulated a collection of PAL DVDs. I had a great DVD player that was region free but alas, all good things must come to an end. When shopping for a new one to fit my needs, I ran across this one and ordered it. It arrived fast and after setting it up it works like a charm! No problems with other region playback and the picture quality is great. My only negative is that remote is small and sometimes it is hard to read which button is which or my fingers hit more than one. Other than that one small comment, if you are in need of a good quality DVD player, this one is for you!

My player actually stopped working after about 6 months, initially I did not realize I could get a replacement but in fact it comes with a one year warranty. The seller sent a new one which also (for now) works really well. For whatever reason, the video playback is better than in more expensive all-region players we have tried. Other players had bad/jittery framerate on UK DVDS such that it was impossible to watch for people with photo-sensitivity issues. This player did not have that issue. ---------- This seems like a well-made DVD player. It works as advertised, playing both US and UK region DVDs. It has play/pause and stop buttons on the machine itself, which is handy if you have misplaced the remote. There are some slight cons - the remote has a rather strong plastic smell to it, the remote buttons are arranged in what I find to be a particularly confusing and non-intuitive manner, and it seems when you press the "time" button on the remote it just displays the word "time" on the screen rather than actually displaying the time elapsed or time remaining. (Edit - it seems it displays the time on the player itself, I did not realize this at first)

I ordered this player because the reviews said it works just like the reviews said. I ordered all the seasons of a sitcom from Great Britain about 5 years ago. At the time I ordered a region free DVD player. When it arrived, the DVDs didn’t play. I thought I threw the DVDs out, but we moved, and I found them. I decided to give this DVD player a try because the whole pack of DVDs cost over $100, and this DVD player is really well priced. Well it came with all the different wires I needed, and I like that you can control the player on the player, not just with the remote. The region 2 DVDs queued right up and played perfectly. So then I tried a region 1 DVD. The DVD played that perfectly too. I’m really glad I bought this player.

I needed an inexpensive basic multi-region DVD player to watch some discs that I'm unable to play on my US region player. This one seemed perfect. It was small and a good price. I received the player, opened it and set it up. It was extremely easy to set up. I put in the first disc. It played. There were a couple of spots where the picture would move in slow motion before speeding up and righting itself and then it would lose sync. I chalked it up to the disc. I tried a second disc. That disc played even worse...continuously freezing, going into slow motion and loss of sync making the disc completely unwatchable. I tried a disc I knew without a doubt played perfectly and it too played in slow motion in spots, froze and lost sync at various points. I had it hooked up via component cables that came with the unit. Thinking that may be the cause of the issues, I hooked it up via an HDMI cable. The only difference that made was the picture quality improved greatly. I got frustrated and gave up trying to figure out what the issue was. The following day, I tried again. That's when it all went downhill. I put in a disc and the logo screen popped up. At first, it said 'no disc'. I ejected the disc, cleaned it and tried again...the logo screen came on and it said "loading". I could hear a spinning sound but nothing happened. I ejected the disc and tried another one, one that had played the previous day albeit with problems. Once again, the logo screen came on and said 'loading'. It did that for about 5 minutes before turning itself off. So now, no discs play...I can't get beyond the loading screen. Save your money...this player isn't worth the hassle.

This little DVD player packs up a ton of satistaction. it does exactly what it's supposed to do and it does it well. If you're tired to pay a fortune for certain DVD series but only pay next to nothing in Region 2 format, this is the perfect machine for you. You don't even have to select the proper setting, it does it automatically once you insert the DVD in it or you can select it yourself. As for me, not only did I buy one but 2 more for a total of 3 so that despite my extensive DVD collection, I'll always have this inexpensive solution to play them all for a long long time. That little machine is ''the little train that could'' and like me, you'll enjoy it I'm sure. There's even a front plug in for your microphone on the front panel for your Kareoke singer in the family. Now you'll excuse me, I've got to go back watching my movie !!! Nobody makes John Wick wait on pause right !!! And what about that pensil shot......wow !!! :-) Enjoy this little machine !!!

Easy to use right out of the box just hook up hdmi or RCA cables and play. DVD’s play clearly. Several months later I’m still trying to figure out remote. You must point the remote directly at the player. Buttons are very close together which is difficult to use with big hands/fingers. Unit is a bit noisy when changing programs NOT during playing of dvd’s. I bought this because I can use my UK and US CD’s. I love BBC sitcom’s and can get UK versions of ‘Complete series’ for many times a quarter of the price of the US sellers. Doesn’t made sense considering they have to ship allot further BUT. I’m thinking of buying another of this DVD players as a backup. I’ve played at least 40 DVD’s so far with no problem but gee, for this low of price…..Definitely a great buy!

LONPOO-099 Multi-Region DVD Player is worth every penny until it fails (which is about 9-12 months). The first one I bought was working great until about the (9) month-mark. The power mysteriously shorted out and the “disc eject feature” failed. Luckily, I had no dvds in the player. Being a electronic handyman, I decided to open up the box. I discovered the power connector to the motherboard was scorched and the rubber band controlling the “disc eject” had broke. Trashed the player and bought a new one. Prefacing my current experience: 2023 was a busy year for me, I wasn’t home for much. When I was, I would watch my Chinese martial arts or K-Drama dvds. Today, decided to continuing watching whatever dvd i had currently in the player. After finishing it, I went to switch it to the next disc. To my amazement, the “disc eject” feature failed to operate as intended. The power was good. Manual and remote control of the “eject” feature was no good. I decided to open up the box and, yet again, the rubber band controlling the “disc eject” had broke. But with this unit, I also noticed that there was some kind of “sticky substance” all over the electronics, even in areas where substance shouldn’t be. Poor craftsmanship. My conclusion: For the price you pay, its worth it. Be ready to replace it after about (9) months to (1) year if you use it almost everyday.
