Yamaha DVDS 559

Have seen this player on the web and ws wondering if anybody has any experience of it using the component outpts & Progressive scan 480p/576p?

Also does anybody know of a mutiregion hack or code as my DVD coleection is 50/50 R1 & R2.

I know its no top end player but was curious of the picture quality as its been redcuced to £46.00 Inc Delivery and unlike many other players its black so has a pretty high WAF.

I am currently using XBMC via HD componenet set to 720p and am converting all my DVDs to 2.1gb Xvids with AC3 to stream over my network but feel like i should have a dedicated DVD Player as well?

Any thoughts

Thumbs up Re: Yamaha DVDS 559

£44 - Extremely pleased. Has the same menu system which is the same as my Pioneer 575. Plays all DIVX, DVD, DVD-R (DL), MPG files. Great buys. Much better than my old Yamada 6100.
