I know that this is a cheaper brand compared to others. What I can't understand is why the only 2 players that I decided to buy cannot play DVD's. I'm talking about original DVD's nevermind recordables. It won't play them either.

I own a Cyberhome DVD500 player and it would play everything except DVD's. I had to change out the drive and then it started playing DVD's.

I decided to try their DVD recorder CH-DVR 1500 and right out of the box it would play everything but not DVD's. It wouldn't even recognize DVD+R or DVD+RW which is what it suppose to record on.

If anything I expect a DVD player to play DVD's and if anything have trouble with all the other stuff. This blows my mind. It's obviously going back for an exchange. I'll try one more and that's it. Is anyone else having trouble with DVD playback?
