RE: AKURA ADV147AS DVD player

Well, as posted in the hardware reviews, I bought this one today too, it auto plays on region 0 , 1 , 2. Don`t know about the other regions though, havn`t any discs from there?
No need for a hack on this model !!

RE: the cheapest dvd player

Try Somerfield / Safeway / Makro,
They are all selling the Akura DVD player at around £29.95 ! Looks good, I bought one. Has DTS out plays CD / MP3 / DVD +RW - RW JPEG !

RE: Akura ADV147As

Hi, I also bought one of these after getting a flyer from Somerfield and checking this site for news about them! Paid £29.95 and they look like blinding value for money!!
Just for the record, they will play (without hacking) region 0 , 1 , 2 discs without any problems. They set up very easily, very basic true, but well worth the money.
The only thing iv`e come up against so far is that they didn`t like my DVD + RW discs that i have already copied and used on my other DVD Players (Cyberhome , PS2). They play +R perfectly, so be a bit careful on the type of media ,the box says it will play +RW and - RW ,so it could be the media / recording on the +RW discs !!

Once again though, great VFM
