Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
The DVD player I've been waiting for
The Philips DVP-642 is fantastic.  My DivX rips look clear and sound great on this machine (as do regular DVD's).  I've gotten it to play just about everything I've thrown at it, and the rest of the stuff I didn't expect it to play anyway (I just like to experiment).  To the reviewer who claimed that this player will not play DVD-R's, that's all I use and they work great on my machine.  As DVD's or as DVD-ROMs loaded with high-quality DivX files. I haven't tried any DVD-RWs yet.  You might try using a different program to burn your discs.  I copy mine with DVD X Copy.  The only real gripe I have with this player is the interface.  (I lamented the lack of an eject button on the remote until one of my friends discovered that if you hold down the Stop button on the remote, it will eject.)  The interface is sometime frustrating to navigate and generally less well-designed than the player overall.  But it's a minor gripe.  I still can't recommend one enough. <br /> <br />I do with it were black, though.  I'm so sick of silver.
