DVD player with component and prog scan

[Shaun666]

About to take delivery of a new Toshiba 36inch picture frame set and was thinking of upgrading the dvd player from my Pioneer DV 535.

Any recommendations ?

And does anybody know of Cello ? Was in a Sainsbury's savacentre yesterday and they Had a Cello dvd player for about £30 which said it had component inputs and prog scan. It can't be any good for £30 surely ?

I've never heard of the Cello player but its not necessariliy a bad player at the price. There are some good dvd players available for next to nothing now. It could well be rubbish but don't knock it until you've tried it, as some of the cheap chinese players give out a very good picture and have tons of features not on the lower priced japanese decks. Models like the Toshiba 330 are made in china on the cheap anyway by companies like Goldyip and you have to pay for the profits of two companies.

The good thing about buying it from there is their pretty much no quibble returns policy.;)

If you take it back because it's faulty (it "jumps" doesn't it?) then it's money back time and no money lost...but potentially some saved.
