Power Rating
I have a Hitachi 42HDX61 that I used in the US (110 V). I am now in Europe (220 V). Can I use it for watching DVDs if I use a simple voltage converter, or is the power rating too high for that? thanks Ramin

Yes you need to purchase a transformer that converts 240v AC to 110v AC. Also be aware that the US uses 60Hz and Europe is 50Hz. This can be a consideration. Testing is the sure method. If it works OK then fine. Do not plug the unit directly into the 240V supply as that is very dangerous and most certainly destroy your kit.
