Matt.'s Review of Encore DV-450

Overall Rating

4.5 stars
  • Value for money
    5 stars
Good Points

The quality of the features and its low low price.
The ease with which the region lock can be hacked.


Bad Points

The remote - all the buttons including 'Play' & 'Stop' are the same size thereby making it impossible to ensure you are pressing the right ones whilst in the dark - also not helped by a rather unfortunately looking bland black box as a design - but if you like minimalist as myself...


General Comments

Having viewed several discs on the Tesco's sold Wharfedale it very soon becomes apparent that this is a much beter quality player with more easily accessible - and simply better features - the principal reason for this is because the build of the DVD drive is exactly the same as you would find in a high-end home PC and for only £199 you really do get value for money.
Region Lock Hack - While on main menu type 38883 and you will enter an area which says at the bottom of the screen "YOU SHOULD NOT BE HERE" at which point change the lock to the region of your choice.
