Product Description
   The DVP-NS57P/S DVD player features Precision Cinema Progressive technology, providing sharper images for a better viewing experience. Unlike other DVD players that detect image changes at the Scan line level-Sony's Precision Cinema Progressive (PCP) system detects them at the Pixel level. This results in images closer to the original source data, because separate, optimized algorithms are used to handle the differing Pixel behavior. Separate algorithms are also used to process the moving and still parts of an image, resulting in sharp backgrounds with moving objects that are free from motion artifacts. Sony's Precision Drive III mechanism is also included, which helps maximize the performance of DVD collections by reading data even on some physically "warped" discs. Other benefits include fast/slow playback with sound, and custom parental control.

Does The Job
The Sony does a good job as advertised with no problems. Can't say the same with my previous DVD player. Appreciate playing a disk and knowing that it will work as it should.

sony dvd player
great product, I have had nothing but bad luck with dvd players for years. This one however is awesome, no skips, doesn't overheat, has a screan saver function, is easy to use and the price is great for a namebrand product. Highly recommend this player for anyone who just wants to sit and watch some movies with no hassles.

So far, so good.
I haven't had this DVD player for very long, but it works perfectly. Very reasonable price. I appreciate the fact that the manufacturer included RCAs with the player. No problems yet. If I do have any problems, I'll change my review.

Tough to beat
The Sony DVP-NS57P/S DVD player turned out to be a perfect fit for our small Phillips flat screen. We just wanted to be able to watch DVDs in another room without a lot of hassle and expense. So far, so good! We set the TV right on top of the space-saving Sony DVD and the two of them take up no space at all. Performance of the player has been exemplary. And as usual, Amazon's ordering and shipping were terrific. The player arrived much sooner than expected, even choosing the free shipping option.
If you're looking for a basic, quality player from a top brand at a small price, I don't think you can go wrong.
