Will robocop play on my Toshiba 510E?

Hi there,im so tempted to get this trilogy as its now out for as little as £15.99,but ive heard that some toshiba players have major problems with the first movie cos of seemless branching,anyone have this player and this DVD?

I cant answer your question but I was wondering if you have had any other problems with your player.

I have just bought one and so far it has been perfect

Jase,

I know that men think with their penises, but I never thought there'd ever be a man whose penis owned a DVD player

Just to keep on thread, I'm awaiting delivery of my R2 Robocop Trilogy

As you well know Squirrel, I rest my DVD player on top of my penis during playback

I can therefore also claim to have a DVD player owning penis

As far as I know, this should only affect the Director's Cut of the movie anyway, not the theatrical release (both are included).

robocop triology plays fine on my tosh 510

pause arenot quite seamless for the directors cut due to them using integreted branching & not seamless branching

dosent spoil enjoyment of the movie


i have had my tosh 510 for about 3 months now and its played every disc i have had every disc that have caused problems with other players

I think this problem only effected the 220, which can be corrected by a firmware upgrade.

Mine locked up the other night on The Fifth Element R2 I guess I should get the r1 version.
My player is fairly cramped, so maybe I should give it some air.
