I have several Apex DVD players but not that model. The ones I have AD1225 and AD1110 play most anything I throw at them mpeg files, svcd, burned DVDs, mp3s jpeg slide shows.

check videohelp.com/dvdplayers and type in your player model/number in the "Search Player" input. It says there that it can read + and - but you might want to check the comments.

Interesting!! Just what I was lookin for. Thanks v much!

Now I got some new questions.... quote from the comments on link above:

Quote:
REPAIR ISSUES: Most DVD players contain standard DVD drives connected with an IDE cable just like a computer. You CAN but a replacement DVD drive from a store, change out the face plate and stick it in the Apex-1200.
??? is this true???

Another quote:

Well... I just finished voiding my warranty to find out the answer to question 1... nope, that dude's 100% wrong about this player. It does NOT use standard IDE cables, nor any kind of standard mounting or drive. He musta been thinkin of an xbox or something.
