 Almost blu-rayApr 25, 2008
By B. Pettepiece
"B"
I'm impressed with the picture quality coming out of the 6100. I only expected it to be slightly better than regular dvd but sometimes watching a movie I can almost forget that it's not a Blue-ray. I give it a 9/10 for picture quality and I am pleasantly surprised.
As for the "Regza-Link" I don't know. You are supposed to be able to control the DVD player with the TV remote if you have a Toshiba Regza television which I do but I still had to program the code for the DVD player in to the TV remote, which I would have had to do anyway. It turns the TV off when you turn off the DVD like a blue-ray but doesn't turn on the tv when powered on.
These things aren't as important to me as the picture quality and for that I give it a 9. Only way it could be better is if it were a Blue-ray.
I'm running the 6100 with an HDMI cable to a Toshiba 47" Regza.
*Edit 9/7/08*
Still happier than ever with the 6100 and am still considering whether I really need a blu-ray player. The new DVD's that are being released are so much clearer than those even released a few years ago and really look fantastic upscaled to 1080p. Read an article that Toshiba's answer to Sony after losing the format war between Toshiba's HDDVD and Sony's Blu-ray is to offer 1080p upscaling so good it's hard to distinguish from blu-ray. After using this DVD player I believe it and look forward to seeing what Toshiba has in store for the future.

 nice dvd playerJun 12, 2008
By Jany Scheffel
First, it is very light and small in size, so you don't really need a lot of space for it. Mine sits in front of my 42 inch lcd tv. It does not have a clock but unless it's a dvd burner, you don't really need one. Second, it does not play homemade dvds, I get the message"bad disk" while I have no problem playing them on two of my other dvd players (Panasonic). I gave my daughter a Toshiba dvd player and she too, has the same problem so it must be the Toshiba technology. But the price was right for a HD player, about $52 so I'm not complaining. I do like Toshiba products so I tend to stick with the brand.

Great picture, no frillsJan 25, 2009
By M. Pena
This upconverting DVD player's picture is fantastic, but the options are limited. It's front display is sophomoric, and buttons are few. The REGZA connections however, make up for it's simple controls. When you insert a disk, the TV automatically changes to DVD intputs, nice. Picture is amazing, and clear. It is, however, a little louder in operation than I thought. I read the reviews about it making a little noise, but motors sound louder than my 10 year older player sitting next to it. Oh well, just turn the volume.

 Great out of the gate, but lacking stamina...Dec 23, 2008
By Matthew G. Mason
Had this machine for four months (30 days past the warranty deadline) when the tray started acting up - it doesn't stay out, giving you a bare moment to remove or add a DVD before retracting again. A month or so later it started giving errors and ceased playback of home-burned movies altogether.
This was my first experience with Toshiba - and my last.

Bad ProductJun 01, 2009
By C Golds
My product lasted less than 60 days. When it went bad, I called the service number who told me to take it to a service center. I did that and was told I needed to send it in to Toshiba directly. After all the run around, it was past my 90 days so I was out of luck. At least they were kind enough to offer a replacement... but at a cost more than the price I paid originally! Gee thanks!
