Customer Review: Just ordered, but price, panasonic durability, etc...
Summary: 5 Stars
I just ordered this refurbished unit for well under a hundred dollars with a hdmi cable included, and I will provide a thorough updated review when it arrives and I use it. Of course, panasonic durability is well known, I have a five piece carousel Panasonic DVD/CD Player DVD-CV47 that I've owned for so long I've forgotten when I purchased it, am thinking I've had it for about ten years. Of course that was pretty new technology/merchandise back then and it even has an s video link port, but is now used as a cd player mostly since I have other dvd players around the home, I used it alot previously, though it has some compatibility issues with cd-r backups of music(firmware upgradeable?, ah, don't matter I guess).
All I care basically is some blue ray playing and I don't have high speed internet or such, actually streaming video online doesn't really interest me(being old school video purchasing/renting), just playing some blue ray movies and up-converting regular dvd's to my 720P lcd t.v is bout all that interests me. I'm hoping there won't be any over complicated firmware updates that are too hard to perform. I am actually hoping the upconverting of regular dvd's is going to be okay, I worked hard not to buy a upconverter when a blue ray player would accomplish the same thing for just a little more money. I still don't believe the technology has caught up with blue ray players for them to be even reliable for streaming video, or all the extras they are trying to bundle in them, it probably makes them unreliable even more, which is why I almost bought the panasonic bd45 for $99, a totally no frills model. Well anyway, this was cheaper by far since I needed an hdmi cord included too, and was last years equivalent model to the bd 65 of this year. I'll put mine through its paces and will make sure refubished unit means something good or it can go back.
***UPDATE##$$ I received the unit rather fast, and it operates pretty fast so I can't see where folks say theirs are "very" slow, this takes about five seconds to start up once I hit power on, but starting up even blue rays is relatively quick compared to the scares of some products and others' reviews even of same product, dunno, I mean, I don't think I am hyping the speed other than it appears to have been reworked recently, it works great, I don't have high speed internet anymore to check the internet goodies of which I don't care about, can't tell if it has ever been owned before since it is like new and only the warranty pages for panasonic have yellow "x's" marked on them, ....it upconverts regular dvds, like old b-movies with poor transfers really well, it has three audio remaster settings or the factory setting(its just something to play around with on bad audio, not sure if it really helps or not sometimes), and playing of blue ray movies is going okay for right now, though I have tried only two movies so far. The remote control has sections to control my t.v and just audio for my old, very old, like 1991 pioneer multi receiver. When I pop in a movie, it automatically tunes in my t.v to the hdmi port I use for blue ray, other than digital satellite hdmi port. The hdmi cable included with it seems to do its job rather well. I guess time will only tell, I'll be renting blue ray movies at least a couple times a month to test the blue ray function, will buy more used/new blue ray movies, time will tell.
But once again, upconversion of my old b-movies of public domain movies put on 50 packs(like mill creek 50 horror classics) I bought here on amazon is terrific, much better than my regular dvd players, they play just as best as some of those poor transfers can play.
On an odd note, there was literature with the instructions pertaining to online content media capabilities, netflix was listed with a little check next to it, don't know what that means, I don't have high speed internet. Was mine upgraded to 2010 standards? AS fast as it is, sure seems so, it is faster than my friends panasonic bd30 from last year on loading bd and regular dvd's!
