New DVD player; does this one sound good? (1 Viewer)

[Ashford Little]

I'm in the market for a new DVD player and am seriously considering the new Panasonic DVD-CP67 changer. I want a changer since it's going to also replace my CD changer (consolidation mode underway).

I don't need anything fancy, but I certainly want something better than my old Panasonic DVD-A110 which freezes up far too often. While this player is a progressive scan player I actually won't be taking advantage of that feature since my TV is still analog.

I also am going to wait a bit further before jumping headfirst into the whole SACD vs. DVD-A world so those features don't concern me either.

Anything I'm overlooking here?

I am in the exact same boat. I have had my Panasonic A110 since April of 1998 and it has been a great player. I have noticed skipping/digitizing on a few rental DVDs, but nothing that I own. I have about a 95% sucess rate reading DVD-R disks, but that 5% is a real pain.
I am also looking at the DVDCP67. I noticed the specs specifically say it is DVD-R compatible. They do have a disclaimer saying that they only guarantee DVD-R with Panasonic burners and disks made on other burners may or may not work.
I am hoping to get one for my B-day coming up in April. I will post my findings.
