Would it be safe to bet that if a PDV-705 model will play a certain type of DVD-R that the PDV-709 will as well? I'm thinking the only real difference in the two is the screen being 2" bigger on the 709.

I've tried a Maxell DVD-R, that was burnt in a Pioneer DVR-231 DVD Recorder, on the display 705 model at Wally World and it worked fine (at least for the 3 minutes I watched it.)

I checked under the DVD player section but it appears not many people have tried this model yet. Can't find much information on this player, it must be fairly new...

Thanks
