Philips DVP5140 Multiformat DVD Player with DivX, MP3, Windows Media Support
Nice price, good picture, multi-region, but frustrating otherwise
As someone had noted previously, it is possible through the remote to switch this player into multi-region mode, and that's quite nice.  The picture is also nice.  However, the remote control reception is maddeningly poor; it's very iffy even from 6 feet away.  Tried new batteries, a universal remote, still not good.  The other problem is that it doesn't remember where you left off on a DVD, or forgets once it goes on standby.  Once its on standby, you seem to have to turn it on from the front panel.  I'll go back to Sonys, which have fine remotes, which remember the positions of your last six disks.   <br /> <br />One star for the picture and price, and one star for the multi-region feature.
