Component- and S-video outputs offer clearer, sharper pictures (with compatible TVs) than standard composite-video, and even with a standard connection, you'll enjoy 720 pixels per horizontal line with your favorite DVDs--more than twice the definition of standard VHS.
Enjoy convenient dynamic-range compression (which quiets loud explosions and effectively increases the dialogue level) with Dolby Digital-encoded programs--that's the lion's share of all DVDs--and an optical digital-audio output will transmit true 5.1-channel surround sound to your Dolby Digital-decoding surround receiver.
Black-level adjustment lets you tailor the player's image to your viewing environment, deepening the blacks for higher contrast in nighttime or theaterlike environments.
Playback features include multiple repeat and programming functions, multi-language/subtitle capability, parental controls, and multi-angle viewing (with compatible discs). A DVD/TV remote control is included with this player.
RCA provides a 90-day labor and one-year parts warranty.

Well, last night after hooking up the player to my TV (it took me a whole 10 seconds) I watched the Godfather Part I straight through and had no problems. Also, I should mention, I dropped it on the cement floor of my basement from about 5 feet and it works fine, it just has a scratch. The only complaint I have is that you can't access menu's without the remote and the remote was no where to be found in the box of my DVD player and that made me mad because I couldn't view any of the deleted scenes or any of the other special features. I was able to watch the movie, though, and that is a good thing. Anyway, I hope this helps you. 113 of 122 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: RCA RC5240P DVD Player (Electronics) This little player has it all.

Not to many bells and whistles though.user interface for mp3s is lacking. does not list entire file name. Letters are blocky. Not exactly like having windows media player on your tv. discs get unusually hot,hopefully doesn't become a problem. I bought it because my tv & sourround sys are also rca,for that I like it, one remote.Basically priced well for what it does but if you dont have other rca equip. might as well try some other brand. |
