Dave, London

Score 7.0/10

+ Can play NTSC discs with true PAL output and vice versa using built in digital framestore.
Atrractive design, quality build. Good VFM if you need the stndards conversion feature.

- How to set this up is not at all obvious, relying on holding down keys while powering up the unit, and the instructions for this are inexplicably buried in a dark corner of the manual.
