If you're searching for an affordable DVD playback solution that offers high-quality digital audio and video processing, look no further. The Toshiba SD4200 DVD Player is a multi-format DVD/CD player that will take your home theater experience to new heights with Digital Cinema Progressive 3:2 pulldown and digital surround sound. Simply connect the ColorStream Pro super-crisp 14-bit component video output to your compatible TV display, and enjoy images that look as good as they did on the big screen. And don't worry about disc compatibility; it's compatible with DVD-Video, DVD-R/W, DVD+R/W, SVCD, and VCD discs.
To help re-create the thrill and realism of today's movie soundtracks at home, it offers Dolby Digital and DTS decoding, 192KHz/24-bit DAC processing, coaxial digital audio output, and 3D virtual surround sound. Though it's an excellent DVD player, it can also be used as a CD player and JPEG photo viewer. You could actually use the SD4200 to share your favorite MP3 songs and photos with friends and family at your next gathering. Other convenient features include: fast and slow scan, digital picture zoom, multi-camera angle, multi-language, and multi-subtitle select.
Moreover, the super slim chassis, coupled with a stylish black acrylic finish will complement your room's decor. Simply put, if you're a music or home video enthusiast on a budget, the Toshiba SD4200 answers the call with dependability and reliability.
The SD4200 is capable of scanning an entire video frame at once; scan-lines commonly associated with interlaced video are drastically reduced. The result is a spectacularly clear image with no motion artifacts (stair-stepping), and details so sharp they seem as if they're etched onto the screen.

Comments about Toshiba SD4200 DVD Player:
It seems that anything I buy -- even if it says "assembles in two minutes" -- is difficult for me to figure out. But not this DVD player. It was so easy I almost didn't need the instructions. The remote worked right away and I was able to watch a DVD. This thing is streamlined, lightweight, easy to set up and use, and at a really great price from B&H.

Comments about Toshiba SD4200 DVD Player:
Pros:
* Plays all dvd's including many DVD-R copies my sony player would not.
* Economical pricing
* Easy controls
Cons:
* No s-video out
* Displays only track number, not time remaining
We've been using the SD4200 for about a week. It does everything claimed and does it well. It's a little light on creature comforts and added features, but we expected that. Plays all our DVD-R's which was our main consideration in purchasing this unit.

Comments about Toshiba SD4200 DVD Player:
I just purchased this DVD player and it works well. I am using it on an older TV so I am not sure if the picture is better on a newer flat screen TV but it does what I needed it for.
Comments about Toshiba SD4200 DVD Player:
Sure, they put an LED display on it but decided to make it only four digits long. It doesn't tell you the time elapsed on the players face, only what number chapter your on. Pretty slick.
On the plus side, its easy to hack for all-region.
