Amazon.com Product Description
Forget thinking outside the box--now you can stop worrying about the box altogether. Coby's DVD-224 is about the size of a hardcover book, so whether you're ferrying the player between the kitchen and the bedroom or hooking it up for periodic use by the kids, the DVD-224's small size permits enjoyment of DVD programs and music CDs in just about any room you want. While not portable in the traditional sense--the unit has no screen and requires AC power--the DVD-224 is much easier to move around, set-up, and use than a traditional component DVD player. It handles not only your DVD-Videos (both NTSC- and PAL-formatted discs, depending on your TV), but it plays your music, too--everything from standard CDs to home-burned CD-Rs, CD-RWs, and MP3-encoded CDs. Further, you can load a disc brimming with digital photos for custom slide shows in the comfort of your home theater. An onscreen display simplifies setup and operation, and the unit comes with a compact, full-function remote control. Other features include parental controls (with PIN lock), frame-by-frame slow motion, picture zoom (2x, 4x), and multiple-angle viewing (with applicable discs). Like to travel? The DVD-224 won't hog space in your bag, and an auto-switching universal power supply handles inputs from AC 110 to 220 volts (50/60 Hz) for use in most countries. Accordingly, the unit's onscreen display offers a choice of 5 setup languages: English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian. A composite-video output ensures compatibility with nearly any television and many newer computer monitors. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (choose from either optical or coaxial) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. A set of standard left/right RCA analog outputs simplifies hookup with traditional integrated amplifiers and most televisions. What's in the Box
DVD player, remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, and a stereo analog audio interconnect/composite-video cable.

Ok... August 20, 2010
sapphireblue
Works well, and was bought for my daughters room. She has had a while now, and its still working, and plays all her dvds. It's ok for a cheaper dvd player.
 Broken after 4 months August 12, 2010
Ivy's Mom (Palatine, IL)
This was a cute little player while it lasted. It made a horrible noise whenever it played a disk, but once it got going, it was okay. Then right after the manufacturer's warranty was up, the door stopped opening. I called them to see what they could do because the warranty states that "parts" are covered for a year. Apparently what they consider "parts" are cables and remote controls. Silly me. I assumed parts are what they used to put the thing together. She suggested I take it to a repair shop. It's not worth repairing. I'm going to go buy Sony or another brand that I trust.
FALSE ADVERTISING!!! June 19, 2010
T. Kavanagh (717)
This player is listed, not only on this website but also in the instruction booklet it comes with, as being region code free or NTSC/PAL compatible.
This is an outright lie. I have a few dozen region 2 DVDs and none of them work on this player.
In addition to this there is no way that I have determined yet to fast forward or rewind on any given DVD. I suppose I could read through the directions to see if there is some halfassed method of doing so, but it would be a waste of my time since I am going to return this product.
If it seems to good to be true it probably is.
 Coby DVD224 Review May 20, 2010
Kamalraj Pakkirisamy (CA, USA)
Product is relaiable and easy to use. It can read all region dvd's, mps which is good. I like using this product.
It DOES play multi regions...if you know the trick! May 10, 2010
Froglegs (midwest US)
I recently this just to play region 2 DVD's. No, it doesn't work right out of the box, but it does work nicely!
Try this:
Start with player ON, but no disc inserted.
Press "Set up"button and release,
Press Vol +, Vol-, Vol +, Vol -,
A number 1 will show up in upper right hand corner of the screen
Change to 255 (All region) by pressing the right arrow. Keep pressing- #255 will pop up after a few tries.
Press "Set up" again.
Insert your DVD
You may need to press the NTSC/Pal button on the remote once or twice to get the screen to stop 'rolling'
This did the trick for me, and I am now happily watching Kingdom Series 1- a region 2 DVD :-)
Oh, yes it's a cheap little DVD player, so take care with it. For the low price and my purpose-it's perfect.
