Video Features
The DVB211's component-video output is ideal for use with the latest high-resolution televisions (and a standard composite-video output works with most older TVs). Picture zoom enlarges (two levels, 4x or 16x), while variable high-speed scan offers fast-forward and reverse viewing at up to 100 times normal speed.
Audio Features
The DVB211 is compatible with standard CDs, audio CD-Rs and CD-RWs, and discs encoded with MP3 audio files. (CD-R/CD-RW playability may vary depending on contents and discs.) A 96 kHz/24-bit digital-to-analog converter ensures optimal decoding of all disc formats. The player simulates surround-sound effects using only two speakers, so you'll still be able to appreciate a sense of surround sound even if you don't have a surround receiver or six-channel speaker setup.
Connections
In the video realm, you get the works: standard composite-video, S-video, and premium component-video outputs (switchable between S-video and component-video). The DVB211 gives a coaxial digital-audio output to feed a surround-sound signal to a Dolby Digital-decoding or DTS-decoding AV receiver. When used with a compatible receiver and six-channel speaker system (left, center, right, left/right surround, and subwoofer), the player puts you in the middle of the action. It has a single set of stereo RCA analog audio outputs as well.

When my friends came to visit,they were all amazed becasue this UN-EXPENSIVE one can play not only DVDs or VCDs,it can also play MP3s. It means that I don't need to change audio CDs for the BACKGROUND music while we are chatting since one CD can record more than 100 MP3 files and it can be played for several hours. I would say this one can be a extremly good deal for people who have tight budget but want to enjoy the convinience of technology. 14 of 16 people found the following review helpful: By John W.

My wife and I picked this one because Circuit City had them on sale at the time. We liked the price because if it broke or did not work in about a year it would not be a great lost. We had burned a back-up copy of our purchased children DVD Movie on both DVD-R and DVD+R media to see if my Zenith DVB211 would read them. Also, our Grandchildren are tough on the original DVD Video and our DVD Player. They watch the video over and over so this preserves the original a little longer. The Zenith DVB211 reads both the copy of the Video in either media type. Also, I have a Sony VHS Recorder SLVN750 that I purchased and thought I would see if the DVD Movie could be copied to a VHS without much problem because we wanted to watch TV and they wanted to watch the movie. So, I went out to purchase another DVD Player, but the price was up and the low cost of the VHS Players caught my eye. I would get a VHS Player and set it up in the...Read more |
