Fairly good quality standard definition DVD player

The SONY DVP-SR510H has quite good video (I'm using at the moment the composite video connection); haven't tried the HDMI output yet) and audio. Audio is especially robust and detailed on CD's, with considerable presence. Machine runs quietly -- only a barely perceptible motor noise which can only be heard if you put your ear almost on top of the machine.
The reason for 4 stars:
1. NO DISPLAY PANEL. That seems to be a thing of the past with DVD and most Blu-Ray players, unfortunately. Display panel is not quite so necessary for playing DVD's but with CD's you really do need a display with track number and elapsed time, otherwise you don't know where you are on the CD. And I'm certainly not about to turn on the TV to find out. I have an NAD CD player for redbook CD's and a Yamaha BD-S681 (with a display panel!) for redbook CD's and SACD's, as well as outstanding Blu-Ray video, so I don't need the SONY for CD's.

2. Machine is light-weight and somewhat flimsy. The buttons on the machine only respond to a heavy-finger touch that tilts the front end of the player forward and shoots the rear end up in the air.
The machine looks elegant, definitely not like cheap junk, but it's rather small and seems like David to the BD-S681's Goliath.
However, despite the dislikes noted above, I can recommend the SONY DVP-SR510-H. It's about as good as you're going to get these days for standard definition DVD players, and for around $45, the video and audio quality are truly amazing. It's an acceptable bargain for the money.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Can this Sony DVD player play unformatted and unlabeled DVD's?
What do you mean by "unformatted" and "unlabeled"? These terms are very vague when referring to commercially and privately recorded DVD's. "Formatted" refers to recordable media, such as the old floppy disks. Recordable media need to be formatted before you can record on them. The SONY unit is not a DVD recorder. If by "unformatted" you are referring to the video system, the SONY DVP-SR510H for the U.S. is NTSC. If by "unlabeled" you are referring to the Region, the SONY player is Region 1 and that's it. Maybe I'm missing something here, but it seems your terms are too vague for a meaningful answer.
