I need to buy a new DVD player but dont have loads and loads of money and also want the best deal i can get(like most people on here)
There are a few things i would need such as Multi region as i watch alot of films from Asia, hard drives seem to be the way to go nowadays so wouldnt mind investing and also i read on another thread that you can get DVD players that allow you to plug in USBs in it and watch downloaded films(dont download often honest;) ) so this seems a pretty good idea aswell but not essiential.
There is that cheap Multi region player on amazon for 18 quid but the remote looks too big and bulky and i dont want that.
So to summerise the things i would like for my DVD player to have are:
Multi region
A hard drive
a USB plug (if thats what its called)
and a smallish, stylish remote
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Do you know the model number of the Silvercrest? Was going to look for a multi-region hack code.

Afraid I don't at the moment.
I did try and search for a model, but only found old models listed.

What makes you think that it isn't multi-region?0

Silvercrest's aren't normally multi-region out of the box.It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc...

There's a contact phone number for Lidl.
I suppose you could ring them and ask what is the model number.
Then research the spec and look for a hack.
