DMX Will Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Hello everyone. I'm on a mission to find a DVD player (can be Karaoke as well) that will: a) show the time remaining for the current chapter on the front screen andb) allow you to turn the on-screen display off (or not have one in the first place!) Basically the aim of the DVD/Karaoke player is to play DVDs without the gumpf on screen so we can add DVDs properly to our VJ Show (For mobile and club work). Time remaining is a must, as I need to be able to see when to mix the next track in etc. If it does cue points, that'd be nice too, but by no means a major requirement. Budget it up to £800 for a single DVD playing device. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Chivers Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 You are probably best contacting some of the specialist Karaoke suppliers direct, http://www.karaoke-online.co.uk/ springs to mind ( and no, I'm not linked with them :D ).Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jivemaster Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Chat with Hambone (on here) He has a fully digital multi screen VJ system, running on Ableton Live software I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickb12345 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 We have two sets of the Numark DVD01 Dual players in out main venue and I believe they play CD+G - don't quote me on that but I think they do. They have a switchable OSD and are cueable. They are not bad units - however I have no idea on pricing, but I would expect they are a lot less than £800!

DMX Will Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 Thanks Guys, Just to say...I only want it to play DVDs - I don't really want a Karaoke player! Although I've put it up there as I know a fair few of the Karaoke machines these days play DVDs and might be up to the job. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Beesley Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Two main options I know of ... Tascam DV-D01U or Citronic DVD-05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnomatron Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 the numark unit is deisgned for vj use and you get two dvd players for about 500 quid, in a fairly solidly built unit. The pioneer DVJ1000 can probably be got for about 800 quid if you look about, too, and it's very very nice for vj work. £800 is loads for a dvd player!
