Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Awesome DVD Player
I've had this player since Dec '04 and it's been great. The player plays all my CDs with AVI, JPG, and MP3 content. Even slightly scratched DVDs work great. I had rented a DVD from Blockbuster that came scratched. I watched half of it on my PS2 and the rest was unreadable. I used other DVD players from computers and the data was still unreadable. I had almost given up but then I popped the DVD into this Philips player and I was able to read most of the data. Although the DVD skipped a bit, I was able to make out the rest of the story. Even my parents' foreign DVDs played fine when other generic players failed. My whole family is pleased with this purchase.  <br /> <br />My only discontent was over the controller's design. The buttons are all oval/circular and make it difficult to locate by touch alone. The player is slim but long unlike other players. I guess these are rather negligible factors compared to how much I enjoy having this player. I'd recommend this player to anyone so far.
