Toshiba SD210 vs Sony DVPS300
I think i`ve narrowed my choice down to these 2 players, ASLONG as either of them can out put NTSC R1 discs at either PAL 50 or 60. I checked this morning and my TV can handle Pal 50, Pal 60 and SECAM but i havn`t a clue what SECAM is!! Well my problem is I that wherever i look on the net, i can`t find out what TV output format they do, i`ve heard that if u try play R1 discs on a multiregion Sony 300 player it can only output it in NTSC, so even though it is multiregion im still not going to be able to watch R1 DVD`s! Is this true? Can the toshiba player output NTSC at PAL50/60? Thats what i need to know before i go blow £200 on something that won`t output R1 discs correctly. Thanks very much in advance.

Help needed on new DVD player, plz this is driving me mad!
I have £250 to spend on a DVD player, which MUST be multiregion, the only thing that is bugging me is that I don`t know which can output NTSC at PAL 50! Do any players besides the Hitatch 505E? I know the sony models out put NTSC at Pal 60 but what will happen if I play this back through a PAL 50 TV? Will it jump? Does anyone have any experiance of playing R1 discs thought PAL 60 on a PAL 50 TV? how is it? Or any info in NTSC - PAL 50 players multiregion for under £250 would be great. I don`t mind if you can`t get one aslong as i know that players such as the Sony DVPNS300 can play R1 discs though a standard PAL 50 UK TV fine. TIA

Views on HITACHI DVP505E DVD PLAYER please
Im hoping to purchase a dvd player in the next couple of weeks, and i`ve been looking around on richersounds and superfi and came across this player. I see alot of people asking for recommendations for players under £200, and i know this player is slightly more £230. There are lots of hardware threasds concering sony and panasonic but i never see any views on hitachi models. Anyone got any experiance with this player? the reason it cought my eye is it`s abilitie to output NTSC at PAL 50 and is multiregion. Any feed back would be great
Thanks in advance
