Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Good Player with a few hang-ups
Used it for a while now and it's a pretty good player. The specs says DVD+R/RW but all my movies (be they dvd format or the divx files) are burnt on DVD-R or DVD-RWs and this unit played it without a problem!!! It does have problems playing some mpg and wmv files and that is understandable because it was not in the specs anyway. Physically thin compared to most budget dvd players out here. <br /> <br />Cons: A real cheap crappy remote. Only 8X fast forward speed. No menu buttons on the player itself (so if you can't find your remote, and you want to perform most of the navigation functions on the unit itself then you are SOL) <br /> <br />Overall a pretty good player for the price.
