Summary: Overheat!
Review: After I bounght this product 7 month, the power supply totally dead. The product has bad reliability and easily overheated if you don't turn off the machine(coz no turn off button on the remote).
No more GE stuff!The karaoke function just can't adjust singer's voice up or down.

Summary: Overheat!
Review: Bought our GE Player, and really enjoyed the unit. The MP3 playback is cool, the pitch-change buttons (for karoke) is a neat feature, and the DVD's played back just fine...For 6 months. The player started exhibiting the problems described by other reviewers. The DVD would just stop displaying video (the sound would continue...it was like the video board was generating non-playable video), and if you tried to eject the disk, the player would lock-up. Subsequent power-on's would cause a "click-click" from the drive and a dark panel. We got it to come out of it's self-induced coma a couple of times, but now it's completely dead. We're out $ and have no way to play the "Band of Brothers" collection my wife bought me for Christmas nor our kids favorite movies...Lord help us.

Summary: Decent DVD player but shortcomings are too much
Review: Bought this DVD player a couple of days ago, nice features, lots of connections in the back incl. optical connection. There are lots of useful buttons on front including a shuttle dial, and you can change pitch. However, first movie stopped about an hour into it and would not continue to play. Had to turn off machine and back on again to get it to play. Did the same on several other DVD's that I know to be good. Unit runs HOT, smell of "hot electronics/plastic" wafts through air as it plays. There is no power button on remote so you have to press the power button on unit each time, very inconvenient. Remote is laid out rather poorly so navigating through menus can be difficult. MP3 recognition is flaky. In short, I highly recommend going either with RCA or a different brand. GE is bottom of the barrel for Thomson Consumer Electronics, and it shows.

Summary: Lackluster MP3 playback
Review: Everything works fine on this machine as advertised. However, it's MP3 playback is selective. On one of my MP3 discs with 129 songs, it only recognizes and plays 29 songs. On another disc it only recognizes and plays 8 out of 97 songs! What a rip! I use the same burn program for all MP3s (Nero Burning 4.0). If there was some way to fix this problem it would be most welcome. I downloaded the MP3s off the Internet, so perhaps some were encoded with codecs the GE1101 doesn't understand. In that case, one fix might be to convert all my MP3s back to wave files, reconvert them back to Mp3s using a popular codec (Windows Media Player, etc.), then reburn them. Tedious, but worth a try.

Summary: Recommend as First DVD player
Review: Great features, beautiful design. Runs fastmotion DVD's well and the DTS digital sound is beautiful. Power switch on the remote would be nice. Also a low priced DVD player with component video would be cool, but all in all it is a SOLID 4. Don't listen to reviewers who had a faulty player. If it isn't damaged, it is a thing of beauty...the price too.

Review: Have this machine. Much to my disappointment it was not able to handle the Dual Layer DVD. Just told me it could not find the disc. Tried with two different DVD's.

Summary: Great product and price!
Review: I bought and love this player mainly for its DVD and Karaoke features. It's not a fancy product, but it works for people like me who want to stay with the latest technology without paying so much for it. Its price and multiple features can't be beaten at retail stores unless you're willing to pay more.
