Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
I have been waiting for a dvd player like this for years
As soon as I heard that this product was available I wanted it. I was a little hesitant because I have read several reviews and some people didn't like it at all. After I got it though, I don't know how anyone could not like it. I tried to play every type of disc I had and pretty much everything works with it. Over 90% of all my downloaded videos worked on this player.... the only downloaded video that didn't work were some very short videos that I think were from windows media, 2 tv episodes and 1 movie that the sound didn't work but im fine with that because I have the movie on vhs anyways. Everything else worked with it and I had no trouble with regular dvds either. I've only had it a couple days and I've only watched about 4-5 hours of stuff on it so far but I am extremely happy with it so far. My brother was really skeptical about it before I bought it and now he wants to borrow it. I have read that this dvd player can play any regional dvd from anywhere in the world(after a simple adjustment) and doesn't have macrovision meaning you can record onto vhs tapes. In conclusion, this dvd player can do things that most of the other players can't and for the lack of price your paying that would make this item a must have and I totally recommend this.
