Anyone looking to get this for the intent of using it as a DVD player for your TV; DON'T! That's not what it's meant for. It's meant to be used with a computer, not a TV. While yes I'm sure it'll work with some TVs that doesn't mean it'll work with all of them. If you want a mini DVD player for your TV then go looking for one that's designed for that. LG's website list this as "TV Connectivity" which is a bit misleading since it's just a USB device. I'm sure it works fine on most LG TVs, I can't get to the ports of my some old LG LCD TV to see if it works with it. It doesn't work on my Samsung but that's not the fault of the burner as much as it is the TV itself. My point is, don't knock any star(s) just because it doesn't work on your TV.

For less that $10 more, you can buy a small, basic dvd player that is meant to hook up with a tv. This is the one I use: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007F9XHAY/ There may even be cheaper or better models but aside from not having a front display that shows time elapsed on the front of the dvd player, this is my favorite because it's pretty small and has a slo-mo function. |

Adawn, I will check the DVD player you linked thanks! Eta: It looks great, but it is not multi region. I have converted two of my DVD players to multi region myself, recently one of them is not working anymore after many years of service, I have an older that is working good, and is replacing the one that just stop playing, I tried to convert it to multi player as well, but I can't and couldn't find any code online, maybe the model is too old? That is why I would like a new cheapie one, I have several UK workouts that I really enjoy.

OP here. Wow, I'm amazed at how many responses this had. I definitely understand the hesitation to transition fully to streaming and for those without reliable internet connection, obviously streaming only wouldn't be a viable option. I used to be so opposed to streaming and wanted nothing to do with it. But once I started streaming it was great and then I realized I hadn't touched even my whittled down DVD collection in so many years. It felt good, even if a little scary, to donate those final few DVDs.
