Does anyone know if the DVS VE-200 CD-i player will work with 230V? It has a NTSC/PAL switch, but the back says it's for 120V only. I was hoping to use it without any large transformers...

I'll be setting up my DVS VE-200 in the near future, I believe it's a 230V compatible model...i'll check this out during the week and post again here later.

As I suspected mine also says 120V on the back. I purchased this one along with the rest of McNo's stock so when I got it I just plugged it straight in presuming it would be UK compatible without giving it a second thought. It all worked okay with no problems at all, I guess Digital Video Systems made them compatible with the European power source and shipped them out here without changing the back plate.
Although you could just as easily have a US version of the player in your possession so be careful!!

The components on the PCB are all rated for 250V, so I guess I'll just go plug it in

I just changed the plug to an European plug and the machine is running fine on 230V now.

can anyone tell me why this player has the following outputs on the back?:
(printer and modem)

Because it was made for kiosk systems? Pull data from a server via the modem and then give a printout to the user.
