    According to the specs here, the player does meet your criteria:

    Pioneer 578-a

          ????

          we tried to watch a PAL dvd last night. this dvd player read the disc then the tray opened. do we have to activated anything in the menu to play PAL dvds? the real dvd we want is " FACE-OFF" in DTS.

            June,

            I would think that you would have to activate PAL through the DVD menu (I am uncertain of the DVD default menu). I would look at your menu options in the player and determine which options/features are available.

            Do you still have the manual? The trouble-shooting guide is usually an invaluable resource for resolving issues.

            Next step, call Pioneer tech support.

                  hello,

                  i was told by pioneer, if the unit 578-a was sold in here (usa) it will not play pal dvd's.

                    That is certainly unfortunate news June, that is certainly not what the specs stated.

                    Would you able to return the player?

                    Best regards,

                      New Pioneer DV 676a DVD player any opinions?
                      by kudeta
                      I am in Australia and looking for a reasonable DVD player that has progressive scan, great sound on DVD and a crisp clear picture. Have just seen newly released Pioneer DV 676a which has superseded the 667a. Confusing hey!!!. 667 was originally $699AUD then $329. new model is $245AUD with same specs...

                      Hello Everyone,
                      I have a Pioneer Elite BDP-05FD Blu Ray player and the Blu-Ray portion of it is not working. It still plays audio CDs and regular DVDs. The reason why I love this machine is that it has RCA audio outs for my system so I know I am getting the best possible audio (meaning I don't...

                      hi Guys

                      I purchased the Pioneer 989 avis universal player today and have some questions on connecting it to my rotel rsp1066/rmb1075 system

                      Hello everyone,

                      I have just purchased the Pioneer DV-59 DVD player, which plays both SACD's and DVD-A's, quite a beast (upgraditis strikes again). However it seems I can't provide much feedback, my Rotel RB-1080 blew it fuses (for the second time) and is currently in the shop. I digress....
