for the price nothin realy

Does an exceptional job with picture quality that should make anyone happy

glitchy sometimes with bd's and mine wont play regular dvd's anymore due to region errors

None that I can think off, unless maybe that the closed captions can only be recorded on hard drive and Blu-ray, not on DVD
