Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Good player, but picky to discs
I'm very glad and impressed when it plays avi and mpg files right out of box. But very soon, I found something need to worry about: when I put in a dvd disc not perfectly clean (it's the 2nd disc it ever played and with just one finger print on the front side), it stuck at loading for minutes. All the buttons on front panel and remote got no response except the power button. Luckily, the eject button responded when it's in power-off. I was able to wipe the disc and put it back in, then it started playing. <br /> <br />It doesn't sound to be robust enough to last more than several months. I'm really thinking of sending it back.
