Upscaling multi-region DVD player that also plays DVD-A?

Hi there, the upscaling isn't such a big deal here but it would be nice.

Is there an affordable player (ie about £50) that does multi-region DVDs and can play DVD-A? I can find cheap multi-region DVD players but not noticed any that can do DVD-A as well, like I say, upscaling would be a nice bonus.

Edit - sorry for the poor spelling in the title, I was in a rush!

Not £50. But this seems to do what you want.

Hi, thanks for the quick response that does do what I want, but probably out of my budget. Like I say I don't need all the features, multi-region is the main one, DVD-A playback the second and upscaling a not so important 3rd.

You could try looking for a 2nd hand Pioneer dv-575. You probably get one way inside your budget. But it doesn't upscale.

I know a few have shifted on the trading forums for reasonable money.
