What player to buy?

[superjerman]

I am going out ot day to buy a new TV, and I was wondering what player to pick up?? All I really want it for are VCD's SVCD's and regular DVD's

The ones I am looking at are:

Apex AD-1500

and

Pioneer DV-333

Could you guys recommend anything better? Or one of the 2 above?

Thanks 8)

apex ad 1500, its cheap, looks like crap, remote semi-sucks, but it will play everything you throw in it.
i ve got one, so do about 10 of my friends, they all love them.

Apex have removed VCD support from their DVD players, I think it is all players manufactured after April 2002.

I thought I read somewhere that you can do something to player to make it play VCD's again?

you have to change the header from vcd to svcd in tmpgenc, it takes a few minutes but the vcds play fine on every type of cd.
