Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Mostly Excellent Player
This player has played everything I've given it: DVD, DVD+R, MPG1 vid + MPG1 layer 2 audio, DivX3 & DivX5 & XviD with MP3 & AC3 audio, VCD, SVCD... <br /> <br />There are some things to watch out for...XviD has issues with version &#62;= 1.0 (enable &#34;ESS standalone player support&#34; if offered in your video encoder), XviD QPEL & GMC are documented not to work, &#34;eject&#34; on the remote consists of &#34;hold down stop&#34;, and the file browser (for AVI or MP3 files) only shows a few characters of the file name....DUMP. <br /> <br />Anyway, Philips might release a firmware update with fixes for XviD (they've released one to support DivX subtitles), or they may not, but otherwise I love this player, especially for the price.
