Philips DVD825AT DVD Player
Great DVD Player -- &quot;skipping&quot; not a problem
This DVD Player is THE ABSOLUTE BEST in the price range offering tons of special efffect features.  Many reports of &quot;skipping&quot; on this DVD player are true, but they have to do with the disc, not the player.  Some DVD discs are recorded in a &quot;duel-layer&quot; format, causing a slight  skip, once, at the same place on the disc every time.  If the disc is  recorded in this format it will say so in the fine print on the back of the  cover.  This &quot;skipping&quot; should also be prominant on other DVD  players as well.
