Default Cheap Pro-DVD-player

I just posted this question in the FAQ-department, but thought it might fit in here aswell:

My question is this:
Do any know of some cheap dvd-player that goes in black when you pause it? Or doesn`t show the stupid PLAY-symbol when the button is pushed?
Don`t know about you, but I find this frustrating.
And it never says on the box if this is an option.

Please give me a hint

Default Try pioneer

Hi,

I've tried many dvd players and the only ones i can trust for the black background and the ablilty to disable the onscreen operations are the Pioneer ones.

Nonetheless, try them before buying !

Cheers,

DR.

Thanx, but I know and tried the Pioneer, and I also know it`s expensive.

"cheap" and "pro" doesn't really go together. its either one or the other.

firstly ALL pioneer players that i have seen have had the ability to do black background and no OSD (not just their expensive "pro" players)

secondly ?70-80 (ie the price of a basic pioneer dvd player) is not expensive - if you think it is you should probably take up a cheaper hobby such as "smack the rat"
