Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
A dud!
What an attractive player, so sleek and slim. Unpacks and hooks up in a jiffy, slip in the DVD and we're off. Crystal clear picture, the fine audio through my stereo system fills the living room. Ten minutes into the experience the picture freezes... and ten more minutes of patience and button pushing accomplishes absolutely nothing. Rebooting accomplishes nothing. The Philips Help Line accomplishes nothing. Forty five minutes of freeze frame later the player ejects the disc. From then on nothing I put in it is recognized, DVDs and CDs alike are met with a solemn NO DISC message on the faceplate. What a letdown! <br /> <br />I'm glad I at least got my disc back without taking the thing apart. <br /> <br />Save your money: steer clear of this lemon!
