Product Description High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) Features an HDMI output, capable of upconverting video signals to 720p/1080i and 1080p. This technology enables the it to carry high-definition audio and video information through a single cable and achieving the highest quality picture and clearest sound available. Progressive Scan It is a progressive scan DVD player, capable of scanning an entire video frame at once; scan-lines commonly associated with interlaced video are drastically reduced. The result is a spectacularly clear image with no motion artifacts (stair-stepping), and details so sharp they seem as if they're etched onto the screen. Built-in Multi-Channel Decoders It has built-in processors to handle the multi-channel decoders for Dolby Digital and DTS surround-sound, capable of advanced 24-bit processing and an outstanding sampling frequency of 192KHz. DivX Ultra Home Theater Certified DivX is video compression software which enables high quality video to be compressed into very small files then downloaded onto CD-R or CD-RW and played back with very little loss of quality. Multi-Format Player Don't worry about limited playback capabilities, it plays DVD Audio/Video, DVD-R/W, DVD+R/W, CD, CD-R/W, SVCD, DivX Ultra, MP3, WMA, JPEG, HD-JPEG and TIFF. High-Performance Outputs With playback specifications that meet the standards of professionals, it features a component video output for high-resolution low-distortion video playback, and a coaxial digital-audio output for high-quality audio playback. USB Direct Just plug your device into the USB port on your Philips DVD system. Your digital music and photos will be played directly from the device. Now you can share your favorite moments with family and friends. Parental Control

This thing will play anything January 1, 2009 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I wanted a region-free DVD player so I could watch foreign DVDs. I found this one on amazon which also had HDMI hookup with up-conversion, so I thought it would be the right one for my HDTV. It has really turned out to be the perfect little machine. Hooking it up was easy (for god's sake, don't pay $50 for an HDMI cable at Circuit City - get one from amazon for $5). Anyway this DVD player not only plays all DVD regions, but it plays pretty much anything you can burn to disc - MP3, WMA, JPG, AVI, MPG, MP4. It's tiny, but smart. The only slight annoyances are that it's a bit slow to load discs and it's always turning itself off if you've stopped the video for a few minutes - it doesn't lose your place, but you're constantly having to turn it back on. Worth it for the diversity of playback.br /br /Great machine for the price.
DivX navigation is slow. Doesn't load some DivX movies December 20, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Overall a decent player. Works as advertised: plays PAL, NTSC, multi-zone.br /br /A couple of negative points:br / - DivX navigation is slow. It takes forever to fast forward, pause/resume.br / - It doesn't load some DivX movies - just hangs up. The same movie works fine on a PC. Maybe it's something to do with the size: the movies were 2+ GByte.
Good bare bones codefree dvd player for price November 19, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I've been wanting to play my region 2 dvds on a dvd player seamlessly. I got this item because it's cheap and I didn't need bells and whistle. It does a good job playing dvds. The dvd tray responds a little slow and the remote just has the basics except an eject disc button.
No need for other DVD player November 16, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you are a film addict and like to watch movies in their original languages... and sometimes you cannot find gems in our limited American film/DVD stores and resort to buy them abroad: Do not worry about region incompatibility with those useless codes! br /br /This machine will play it all! br /br /I love it, because besides playing any DVD in this planet, it also upsamples the ones you have to a sharper, crispier and more detailed, elegant image. Something you could only dream of if purchasing a more expensive player... or a Bluray disc player. br /br /The beauty of it is precisely how beautiful it presents the moving picture in any system you have and at a meager price, or course! How could you go wrong buying a player like that?
not as awesome as XBMC, chokes on H.264 AVC high November 15, 2008 3 out of 7 found this review helpful
Reads acceptable well from high quality USB flash drives like Corsair and Lexar.br /br /NOT a suitable replacement for an xbox with Xbox Media Center.br /br /NOT a front end for NAS.br /br /*** Will NOT play x264 / H.264 videos. *** br /br /Upscaling is nice if one has high quality HDMI cables.br /br /There are many bugs with the most current firmware related to playback of other than DVD video. Don't expect another firmware release. One will likely be invited to purchase the next hardware iteration.br /br /Easy Region Free is a plus.br /br /It is slow to complete power up. Slow to recognize no DVD in tray, then slow to decide to poll USB. Once high quality USB flash device detected no transfer rate hiccups. It is slow to eject the DVD drive. Stopping stand alone media files is VERY slow sometimes requiring mashing stop half a dozen times.br /br /Of the other brands of set top stand alone media file players sporting USB ports we've tested this one was the least annoying. br /br /If one requires MUCH better responsiveness and the ability to play 99% of available formats XBMC on Xbox360 is still the best choice.br /br /br /do not pay more than 15 over half a Franklin. 20 for shipping is OUTRAGEOUS. br /br /I returned mine to the amazon vendor for retard-level shipping: retail box tossed in the mail. I bought one from a membership wholesale club for less than half a Franklin.br /br /br /br /
