Mitchell & Brown has announced its launch of its JB-DVD1811 DVD player; it explained that it is in response to retailer requests following many CE brands stopping the production of new players.

Its DVD player comes with HDMI connection, composite video, and even a SCART output for legacy TVs, it also offers stereo RCA output so customers can play CDs to a separate stereo system.

“Our loyal independent retailers across the UK have been calling out for a low-cost solution to get their customers back watching their favourite movies on DVD,” said Mitchell & Brown’s Operational Director, Dan Brown. “Our JB-DVD1811 offers a full-function remote control, CD playback, LED display, and a USB socket for picture slideshow playback. It is everything the customer could want for movie entertainment in a simple insert disc and press play format.”contemporary living room with blue carpet

Mitchell & Brown’s player offers direct disc control via buttons on the front panel, Dolby Audio output, and a small (225mm / 9 inches wide) form factor to hide discreetly beneath the TV.

“Classics like Twister, Mars Attacks, A Time to Kill, Interview with a Vampire, and a host of other nearly three-decade-old movies are unlikely to see the light of day on streaming services obsessed with major blockbusters and super-series longer than a shaggy dog story,” added Mr Brown.

“Our new DVD player breathes life into customers’ old movie collections, enabling them to catch up on old favourites any time they like – subscription-free. With so many pre-loved DVDs available for just pennies on auction platforms, the JB-DVD1811 offers a very low-cost way of enjoying thousands of hours of Hollywood entertainment.”

The JB-DVD1811 offers independent retail customers a low-cost option for easy playback and the fun of rediscovering old favourites.
