Typical price: £60
What is it: Budget DVD player with a massive number of formats supported
What we think: It looks cheap, but the DV100 has so many features for its asking price that it's a decent budget buy

Tags: nissan, dvd player, silver, remote control
We like:
Amount of codecs supported; respectable video performance; connectivity
We don't like:
Card inputs have some format support issues; looks cheap; manual badly translated; relatively poor audio quality
You might also need:
Component cable, Scart cable, DVD software
CNET.co.uk judgement:
Nissan is a very small player in the DVD market, but its ability to combine a stack of features for a miniscule asking price is very commendable. If you have a collection of DivX video and MP3 audio sitting on your computer, then this will let you play them as easily as you would a DVD. While it will look out of place underneath a premium flat screen, it can still provide it with a decent picture, and because nothing else touches it for features at this price, we admit to having a soft spot for it
