Customer Reviews ::

Do NOT buy one of these! - OkieProud - Poteau, OK USA
I bought this unit, along with a copy Avatar on Blu-ray, to replace my old Pioneer DVD player. It played Avatar with no problems, but when I purchased a copy of Vanishing Point on Blu-ray at Walmart, it wouldn't play it. I called Vizio's tech support and was informed that there are no firmware updates and they didn't know when there would be any. Basically, you have no idea whether the Blu-ray movie you're buying will play or not.
That, however is not the worst thing about this player. My old Pioneer had an automatic disc memory that would let you start a dvd at the spot where you left off, even after the disc had been out of the player for a long time. With this Vizio, if you so much as eject it or turn off the power, you're back to the beginning of the movie.
Also, the Pioneer would play just about any disc flawlessly - even those with lots of visible scratches. This one will frequently freeze up and skip when playing a BRAND NEW DISC. Combined with the lack of disc memory, the slightest amount of dust or the most microscopic scratch wreaks havoc on the movie-watching experience.
As if these problems weren't enough, it has developed a new habit of periodically rejecting whatever disc I try to play until I unplug the player and then plug it back in.
In short, I have been much more impressed with the quality of the DVD player I bought for my kids than with this 0 piece of garbage.
