Yamada DVX-6700 DVD/DIVX Player £33.99

MrMonkey

A quick question. Can the firmware updates be added in any order (ie. go straight to V3), or do you have to go V1, V2, V3?

I have ordered one last night - Order status checking still says "awaiting authorisation." Surely these things aren't done manually - they are delivering to the cardholder's address after all.
I'm not in a great hurry but with when I have used my card with others it's been pretty instantaneous and no delay. Anyway I look forward to receiving it soon. i hardly watch DVD film but for the forseeable future I just want a cheap reasonably well reviewed player that will play virtually everything and this seems to be fit the bill. Thanks for the opening post.

the link on the page is for a divx player at 37.99 plus 4.00 postage is this the right link or has price been adjusted

The price varies from day to day normally one by 2 or 3 quid.

hi would I need to buy a rf modulator if a TV has no scart, in the item description says coaxial out but not sure whether thats just radio????

Well that was a surprise - I just checked on the order update and it said awaiting processing or similar but then just had a knock on the door and it was the Citylink guy with it - almost missed him. He put a card through the door but I got him just before he was about to drive away.

I have just played a free "Office" DVD, an mpeg CD and browsed a JPEg slideshow and for my first standalone DVD player for the price etc I am very pleased so far. My only very minor gripe is that as mentioned the green LCD display is a little cheap and basic looking but that is only minor. The tray is flexible but Ok -
It is easy to use - Willl give it a good run in later.

This player seems to have been superceded by the MX-105, but I cant find much info about it on the net in terms of firmware updates. Not sure which to buy.

How's the 6700 with cheap media? I have a Medion divx player that is quite fussy and considering this Yamada one.

I have had my 6700 for 2 weeks now works far better than my old DivX player. Not sure on MX-105, I heard it contains a different chipset, whether that is better than the one in 6700, who knows. But the 6700 is slightly cheaper than MX-105

The specs on MX-105 are here
