Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
AC interference
The DVD player overall is pretty good in the few day's I've had it.  I've only tried a few printed DVD's and few DVD-RW's.  The disks load quickly with the video looking good and the audio level acceptable.  My main problem with the unit is that when it's powered up it produces interference on the TV's channel 3 something fierce.  (It looks like you are running a vacuum or something on the same circuit with little sparkle patterns dancing around on the screen.)  This interference is not seen when the unit is running on another circuit (but who has more than one AC circuit for their living room) and its most noticeable on cable channel 3 you can also see interference on 4 but it's not as bad.  I went through two units at Amazon and they both had the same AC interference problem.  I finally decided not to return the second unit because there is no interference when the unit is powered off (although you do end up looking at a bright red LED all day) It almost seems like Amazon is selling refurbished units.  I'm running the unit using the SVGA inputs on the TV and there does not seem to be any AC interference with the picture\sound.  However, the whole deal stated above is something that must be considered by the buyer.
