Summary: Wonderful Player
Review: Although I do not have a digital television to take advantage of the progressive scan feature of this unit I do enjoy many other aspects of this player. I really like the way this unit is styled. It looks like great along with my other pieces of displayed equipment. The audio playback is worthy of the high-end CD player this unit replaces. The fact you can load a weekends worth of entertainment is also very nice.

Summary: Outstanding DVD Player
Review: DVD: Great video quality. I am using the coaxial digital output for audio and component outputs for video to a Sony 57" HDTV. Progressive scan 480p output quality high. Audio is terrific.CD: I have owned other multiple disk cd changers and other reviewers are correct about the random capabilities. This is not important for me. I mostly use it for DVD watching. Even on other muli units owned, I didn't much use the random feature due to time involved in changing disks every song. Strong player with great features.

Summary: Lack of Repeat Function Disappointing
Review: I have always been a big fan of JVC products. My first CD changer was the old 5-disc, top-load carousel purchased back in 1989. It provided nearly thirteen years of service before it finally conked out, and that was from nearly constant use. After I buried my old reliable disc changer, I was on the hunt for a new one. What better place to look than a hybrid CD/DVD changer. Seven discs this time. Hours of listening or viewing enjoyment. Overall, I'm impressed with this JVC product. It has all the bells and whistles that you would expect from a high-end DVD player, including Progressive Scan. There are dozen of functions to choose from, and on-screen direct programming of most settings. The remote is laid out well, and is easy to use. The seven-disc capacity allows you can listen to one CD right after another or watch one DVD after another, which means you don't have to stop what you're doing to change CD/DVD's. Another nice function is the ability to change discs out while one is currently playing. All six of the non-playing discs are available to swap out. Shockingly, this unit does not have a "true" random mode of selecting any song from any disc. It pretends to have a random mode, and will play all the tracks on one CD in a random order before moving onto the next CD in line and repeating the process. My 5-disc changer had a true random mode, and I know their 200-disc changers have a true random mode, but this one doesn't. I'm sure that this was done because of all the moving parts for changing discs. It appears to be a mix of the carousel and cartridge type CD loaders. The only thing that worries me about this device is that the more moving parts there are, the more chance for something to break. If you're a movie buff, and are buying this to stack up the movies, I say you can't find a better deal. Even if you're looking for a device that can play CD/DVD's equally, check this one out. If you're going to use this as a CD player and occasionally watch movies on it, save yourself some money and buy a single tray DVD player.

Summary: The best DVD player for the $$$
Review: I have been looking around for DVD players for about 2 months, and I have found that this player is the best bang for the buck. I originally purchased a Pioneer DV-C503 and the thing broke while I was playing the first DVD. This unit is awesome! The design is slim and the remote is easy to use. The features, including the progressive scan and DTS, are great. The CD playback (including CD-R and CD-RW's) is excellent! I would highly recommend this unit to anyone looking for an affordable DVD player.

Summary: Nifty player for non stop movie action
Review: I love this dvd player, 7 disc changer! let me repeat, SEVEN disc changer. That means you can stick in 7 dvds, surround yourself with popcorn, snacks, etc. and watch until your eyeballs literally melt out from their sockets days later!!! The JVC player rocks, it features progressive scan to allow full range real time picture adjustment, and allows you to play mp3s, homemade vcds, and regular cds. The progressive scan allows effortless changing of disc without skipping. There are inputs, both in the front and rear of the unit for all the standard wires like rca in/out, digital in/out, and surround sound digital cable. the carosel slides out of the unit effortlessly, and without any noise.

Summary: Best CD-R/RW disc compatibility so far!
Review: I tried DVD changers from Sony, Panasonic, Pioneer & Toshiba, they all had various degrees of CD-R/RW disc compatibility problems, Sony and Panasonic are the worst! I just got the JVC XV-F85GD, a 7 disc DVD changer for [not a lot and that] including shipping! Upon unpacking, I played all the CD-R/RW discs I had problems with the other DVD players mentioned above, they played all without a glitch! So if you are looking for a DVD changer and have the need for playing CD-R/RW type discs, this is the player to get. Period! Forget about any other brands at any price.

Summary: Disappointed with such great potential
Review: JVC boasts seven disks, however you can only randomize/program one audio disk at a time. Seems to me a watse of feature ability. Also great sound but one annoying and fatal complaint. When zooming to 2x in order to enlarge dvd movie image on standard TV, image is very acceptable however, very large zoom icon remains in upper left hand corner while you are viewing in this mode. You can not remove it according to JVC tech advisors since it was programed not to disappear. It is a shame since this ruins your viewing experience with an otherwise great feature packed product. Had to return due to that reason alone.
