RE: Wharfedale 750 - should I keep it?
Thanks - will give it a go. A "known" problem is only known by those who know it :-)
Cheers,
Tim
RE: Wharfedale 750S - Hack appears not to work
The region 1 "slo-mo" is probably that you haven`t changed your SETUP option from PAL to AUTO. When doing this, be sure to press ENTER once you changed the selection with the arrow keys, else it doesn`t take. After that, I`ve had no problem with region 1 discs (which had the symptom you described until i did).

RE: Wharfedale 750 - should I keep it?
I`m sure many thousands of people got the 750s for Xmas, like me. My DVD collection is only 15 or so at present, but so far the Wharfedale has been good. Gladiator region 1 is fine - it`s about 17 quid from www.play247.com including postage.
The only problem to date is Sixth Sense, which on my region 2 copy plays white/green lines in the widescreen part of the picture, whether I`m set to region 2 or region-free. I`ll try a swap-out on that one in case it`s the disc.
As some have said, build quality isn`t great, and the player can be a little noisy once in a while. Otherwise I`m happy.
