Anyone tried dvd-r/rw on this guy?

Interesting.
Might be worth blowing 30.00 for a bedroom dvd player.

When I play burned VCD on this AMW player, the frame doesn't go smooth. The frames are pretty much lagging.

I don't suggest you to buy this DVD player if you're planning to use this player to watch burned VCD.

I would drop a few more $10 bills for an Apex.

seems to work with DVD+R or DVD-R, but no VCDs. I would only use it for playing regular DVDs

These work fine with backed up DVD movies. Have one for the kiddies, the remote sucks, cheesy construction, and captions are on by default. My disc destroying children haven't broken it yet.

Nice find, a good deal with no rebate hassles. Just remember, folks, there is no S-Video connector on this beast, which means that on a low end television without a digital comb filter, you'll get color bleeding, dot crawl, and so on.

If you've got a high-end set with a digital comb filter, you probably won't notice much of a difference.

If your TV is a relatively inexpensive unit (regardless of size) with an S-Video input, pony up the $5 or $10 extra and get something with an S-Video out.

Just my 2¢.

i have an amw player, got mine from CC for $35, and this thing plays everything- scratched dvd's, scratched cd's, cdrs, dvdrs, etc. definitely a good cheap buy imo.

why 3? It doesn't even have S-Video support and that's just lame.

i have 3 TVs in my house right now. NONE of them have s-video inputs. they're all pretty old. 1 32" Panny in the main room and the others are a 25" and a 17" in kids room/game room.

i have no problem with you not wanting a dvd player without s-video, but, really, how can you call it "lame" if it would fit the bill for someone else (such as coolV)?

I got a V101 when they still sold it at CC for about 35 bucks. This player was better than any other player I have messed with, it did have Svideo as well. Anyways It was region free outta box; played VCD, SVCD, KVCD, Pic CD, Music CD, and DVD+Rs (havent tried -r yet) not requiring any codes or hacks, the only problem was you need the remote to work this thing, The only buttons they have on the player itself are play stop eject and on/off. It handles great, with no picture quality loss either. I dont know if the new AMWs are as good, but if they are get it, if not, find a V101.
