Summary: DV-F727 is a good machine
Comment: I've owned this machine for about a year now and have had no problems with it. You'll read a lot of comments about the limited title entry space, which is true, but I keep may DVD library information on my computer so this is only a slight inconvenience to me.
I've read one review where the author ruled this unit out because it would not play DVD-Rs he recorded. Pioneer doesn't list this in its specifications, but the unit does play DVD-Rs and even dual layer DVD+Rs. I've got over 200 of these on my player and it's never balked at playing any of them.
It might be worth the wait for HDMI output and 1080p upconversion in the next version, but I don't know if/when this will happen and in the meantime my DVDs look great using component output on my HDTV.

Summary: Pioneer DV-F727 301-disk player well worth it.
Comment: I've owned the Pioneer DV-F727 for at least 6 years and have been VERY pleased. I still remember the first Universal movie we fired up. It had the new (well, new then) logo rotating into view around the Earth. With a component video hookup it looked so good it almost passed for 3-D. It still looks as good today.
Frankly, I'm surprised to see this model still for sale considering how quickly most electronics come and go. I suppose that says something about it, too. To be balanced, there is a small gripe. Only 12 characters can be entered for each disk title. I suppose it's limited by what can fit on the front display. It helps that there's also an artist field. It doesn't display on the front but does appear on screen when display is pressed on the remote. Oh, and the remote isn't backlit.
The very minor gripes certainly don't amount to more than a small fraction of a star rating. Therefore, I still rate it as a solid 5 stars.

Summary: Pioneer DV-F727 - second one
Comment: We've had one of these units for several years to hold our CD/DVD collection. We just added a second slave unit to increase the capacity from 301 to 601. The two units work flawlessly as one with decent performance.

Summary: Good product, some issues
Comment: I bought this unit and set it up with component video cables, most movies play well although some movies with dim scenes are blacked out losing many details. Adjusting the gamma, brightness, and other settings did not help. I contacted Pioneer email support I was referred to their M-F 8-5 phone support, called the tech and he stated 'it's broke, send it back' with the perceived intent of finishing the call as soon as possible. I called back and got the same tech who seemed put out that I called back and putting me on hold for a few minutes the stated 'it's broke' again and wouldn't diagnose further. Working with email tech support after this I got much better support and more detailed diagnostics steps to take (has helped some). Aside from darkened imaged and poor phone support this is a nice product.
Pros: easy of setup and use, good quality image with component video
Cons: darkened images on some movies, no HDMI output, and poor phone support.
Overall a good product that has reached end of production cycle. I'd advise waiting until Pioneer released the new version of this unit before purchasing so that you get the HDMI abilities. Many poor reviews of the Sony models steered me away from that manufacturer.

Summary: Pioneer DV-F727 301-Disc DVD Changer
Comment: I purchased both the Sony DVPCX995V and the Pioneer and compared them side by side. I took the Sony back and kept the Pionneer. This was to simplify the kids life (load all their DVD's and not have to worry about finger prints, scratches etc). The menu is fast and easy and compared the Sony, this thing quickly rotates the the chosen disc. Having to constantly re-enter titles on the Sony was what did it in for me. I haven't had any issues at all with the Pioneer. Remembers all the disc titles even when I am shuffling the discs around for better organization. Well worth the money!
Pros: Quick and easy menu, remembers DVD titles, quick searching for DVD titles.
Cons: Only enter 12 characters for titles, no HDMI, or other High Def output.
