Amazon.com Product Description
Offering amazing features for such an affordable price, Cyber Home's CH-DVD 500 makes a rich and promising starter player. It has everything from top-of-the-line progressive-scan component-video outputs to built-in MP3 decoding, JPEG image viewing, and a dual-laser pickup for compatibility with not only DVDs and CDs, but CD-Rs and CD-RWs as well. Whether you have an HDTV now or you're planning to get one, the CH-DVD 500 stands ready to deliver the full potential of DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, providing higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. Composite-video and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television. With 3:2 pulldown support, the player corrects for a common distortion in DVDs when 24 frames-per-second movies make the leap to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown removes the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture. The CH-DVD 500 is compatible with DVD-R/-RW and DVD+R/+RW media, handling just about any recordable disc. It even plays both PAL- and NTSC-formatted discs, handy when you're viewing non-region-specific European discs. A set of multichannel analog-audio outputs routes decoded Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround signals to an audio-video receiver. Dolby Digital and DTS signals can also be channeled through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each of RCA coaxial and optical) for direct connection to a surround-featured AV receiver. The player has left-right analog audio outputs, too. Other features include 2x motion zoom, onscreen display (with MP3 navigation), programmable playback (including MP3 and JPEG files), and firmware upgradability. Supplied accessories include a composite-video/stereo analog-audio interconnect, instruction manual, a power cord, and a multifunction 44-key remote control.

 Time to move on - but the times were good July 7, 2008
This was purchased from Best Buy 5 or 6 years ago (maybe even a bit earlier). It was cheap - not inexpensive but downright cheap. It has given me my money's worth without question. Plays DVDs that I have burned - music that I have burned to CD from Vinyl on my computer.
But now it seems as though it is ready to give up the ghost. Fond farewell - it has been a good ride.
New Samsung LCD to be delivered this week from Amazon. Time for a new DVD player to go with that unit and the Onkyo 606 I bought (but not yet installed).
 Fine player at an excellent price! April 28, 2006

Progressive scan, DTS, Dolby 5.1, Auto PAL or NTSC, region free (set it to Region 0 via the remote), component video output, selectable aspect ratio (4:3 or 16:9), composite video and audio cables included.
Put in any disc from any country and it plays. Beautiful picture and sound. What could be easier?
 broke within the first 6 months April 9, 2006

That about says it all - it broke within 6 months of purchase. I'm definitely not happy about that. Cyberhome charges for labor for any services after 3 months, so it might just be cheaper for me to get another player from a more reputed manufacturer (probably should've done that in the first place).
I don't think I mistreated the player in any particular way. I did often pause DVDs mid-way and leave the player on. Not sure if this should've caused any damage.
Sorry I am not happy with this item. March 24, 2006

recently I bought this for my friend but I am not happy with this one, I have cyberHOme 300 that's very good and very cute.
Very good midrange DVD player March 23, 2006
I think CyberHome CH-DVD 500 Progressive-Scan DVD Player is very good. Its not you $30 basic payer. It has progressive scan and outputs, but sold for a reasonable $50. Pretty good so far
