Featuring 1080i video output and an HDMI connection, the SHD7000 is designed to be compatible with the vast majority of HDTVs already in North American consumers' homes. With Ethernet connectivity to the network , the SHD7000 also allows users to access bonus features from movie studio web servers and unlock special prerecorded content on some HD DVD discs. Dolby TrueHD rounds out the high definition experience by presenting the HD DVD disc soundtrack as it was meant to be heard, virtually equal to the studio master.

In addition to its HD DVD playback capability, the SHD7000 will upconvert standard DVDs to near HD picture quality via its HDMI connection, allowing a consumer's existing library of DVDs to look better than ever. CD playback is also supported.

green for this deal

shhh, don't wake him!!! BR fanbois need their sleep too!

just ordered one for new samsung 720p plasma at fry's, yes i know that the hd-dvd is dead but i buy it for upconversion n this unit is superior built even though it takes forever to play

I got this exact deal for ~$85 way back before the format was dead. This is only a $20 savings over prior deals and now it's for a completely dead format. As an upconverting DVD player it's just ok. It looks nice, but the load times are pretty bad (not as bad as some standalone blu-ray, but still bad).

Does it play VCD's As mentioned ? and also is this player region free for playing DVD's.

Thanks

Don't know about VCDs. It is not Region Free for DVDs by default, but I believe there is a way to make it Region Free.

No Western Autos here, but I have been finding them at Half Price Bookstores for 7.98 and up.

no thanks
