Summary: Don't Buy Panasonic DVD-RP62 Model
Review: I purchased the DVD-RP62 DVD player because of the company's reputation for quality. After ten months of minimal use, the DVD player became stuck on the "stop" position, with no means to go into the "play" mode. The indication "HO7" appeared on the screen. From numerous other reviews on Amazon, I have found out that this is a common problem relating to the drive motor. The Panasonic instruction book and website was not helpful. I am very disapointed and will not purchase any additional Panasonic products.

Summary: Super Picture
Review: I recently bought this product, hooked it up to my Panasonic HDTV and what a great picture! Maybe it is so great because of the Panasonic combination but I couldn't ask for better! It is truly a plug and play machine. I have also used it on one of my older TV's and it played just as well. The remote is easy to use. I have no negatives to say about this product. The price was good too for a progressive scan. I have always had good luck with Panasonic products.

Review: I was really pleased with my Panasonic DVD player until it stopped working tonight. It kept showing an HO7 error...I did a little research hoping it was a dirty disk or something, but it seems to be a failed motor issue, and alot of people are reporting it. Thought I would add my name to the list.

Summary: Good unit with one flaw
Review: I've been shopping for a new DVD player for several months and like the Panasonic unit except for one thing. They left out a coaxial digital audio output. I've used my present DVD (a Sony) with both the optical and coaxial outputs and, believe me, you hear the difference with the coaxial output. Most every other brand DVD provides the coaxial output. Panasonic does not. If I had to buy a DVD today, this unit would be it but, since I'm replacing a slowly failing unit, I'll wait until somebody does it right.

Summary: quite good
Review: it doesn't have a coaxial output for audio (just an optical port), and you can't record your mp3's and wma's on a DVD-R disk, but otherwise it is great for the price

Summary: great
Review: It's really great product. best progressive scan player under [dollar amount] range. Plays all formats and picture is simply great.

Summary: Good while it lasts.
Review: My roomate bought this DVD player and it worked VERY well for about 10 months, until it suddenly started up with a "HO7" error and refused to play any disc. I did a search online for the HO7 error and I was surprised to see that it was not only a major problem, but that it seemed to be a very common complaint with this model. If you're considering buying one of these because of the price, you're probably better off in the long run just paying the extra money for a better brand.
