    Designed for those with large DVD and CD collections, the Sony DVP-CX995V can hold a whopping 400 discs with its large carousel design. The most significant update is the addition of an upscaling HDMI output, through which the player can output not only standard 480p but also 720p and 1080i high-def resolutions. Overall, the DVP-CX995V gets the job done well, but you’ll have to put up with a couple of frustrating operational quirks along the way.

    The DVD-Video playback features a progressive scan output with 12-bit, 108MHz processing. For discs that have experienced some wear and tear, the DVP-CX995V uses Sony’s Precision Drive 2 system to help the optics properly track even warped media. In addition to multichannel SACD playback, the DVP-CX995V has Dolby Digital and DTS passthrough via either the 5.1 analog output or the coaxial and optical digital audio outputs.

    The DVP-CX995V will read all the disc information for you and loads it into memory. Once loaded into memory it reads disc type, titles, and other text info and displays it on the TV screen. When a disc is loaded into this dvd player you will be able to sort it into one of seven folders using the File Mode functions. For even more control it has an Edit Mode and Sort mode which give you even more flexibility with how you access and store your discs. And get this… this unique unit has the ability to set parental controls on all 400 discs, and has 40 Multiple Disc Resume playback!
