Hmm, just bought a dvd player I've never heard of...

[Parak]

So I bought some unknown (to me anyway, no matches on model searches here or much anywhere else for that matter) at Cosco, for $80 (!). As a side note, this is my first dvd player (non-computer)

The dvd player is from KLH Digital (never heard of it) model number dvd-8350. Searching the net, yields a KLH speakers company (logo seems to be the same) and searching by model number yeilds a totally different manufacturer (mintek digital, the player pictured is almost identical but not quite)

The player can (according to the description and the manual anyway) play 12 cm/8 cm dvds, vcds, cds, cd-rs, cd-rws, mp3s, and kodak picture cds. Not too shabby. Preliminary testing showed that it will play a vcd 2.0 cd-r disk (actually my first time making a vcd from a divx), and play a cd full of mp3's with deep nested folders without any qualms.

Wondering at this point what I should test next...I have no way of testing any types of dvd recordable media though.

Has anyone heard of this player at all? :p

ive heard of this player.. and the brands you mentioned..

yes KLH does make speakers.. i didnt know they had KLH branded Mintek players though.. and they sell these at costco!?!? i should check this out..

this player is similar to those Apex ones you have probably heard of.. as it can play almost everything.. and if it is like the apex players.. go ahead and throw anything at it and it should play it.. check out http://www.nerd-out.com i think they have some msg board and hacks for that player..
