Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Great player, terrible warranty
As far as playing a lot of formats, this player cant be beat for the price. But beware, the warranty is only 90 DAYS when you buy it brand new! That kind of puts the player in the \\"junk\\" category. This player has playback issues with DVD+RW media, the picture freezes. When I put the same disc in another player it plays smooth. Also, when you fast-forward or fast-reverse through an XVid or Divx file, the picture becomes real jittery when you resume play. I would never buy this player used, buy it brand new. They dont seem to have much life.  This player can be easily made region-free by opening the tray, hit 7 8 9 OK 0 buttons on the remote. You will see a \\"0\\" on the screen in the lower left corner. Great trick for playing region 2 PAL discs
