Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Inexpensive; Plays PAL discs
I like this player so far. I replaced a &lt;1yr old Sony DVD changer with this player.  It works very well connected through component outputs to my HD TV and trough coaxial audio to the receiver.  There are some setup issues, e.g. when a disc starts subtitles are on, even though subtitles are set to OFF in the system menu.  I also could not figure out how to set it up to display full screen on my 4:3 HD TV - all options 4:3 PanScan, 4:3 Letter Box and 16:9 result in the same picture with black bars on top and at the bottom.  The player is connected through component inputs so this may be overriding the menu settings.<br /><br />I wanted this player because it plays PAL discs on NTSC TVs and had pretty good reviews from others.
