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

Rating: - As good as it gets
Small, compact, very easy to install. I previously had a Pioneer multi-regional DVD player which I had to format for Region 2, and it had lots of connections. It gave up the ghost after just three years... motor failed.
The Phillips has just one connection (not included, but bought on Amazon.com very inexpensive) and comes ready to play all regions. No programming necessary.
I'll stretch myself to find something wrong ... only one tiny unimportant thing ... the remote does not have an open-close button, so you have to press the button on the unit itself. No biggie.
The picture is brilliantly clear HD.
I'm loving this unit.
Rating: - This thing will play anything
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.
Great machine for the price.
Rating: - DivX navigation is slow. Doesn't load some DivX movies
Overall a decent player. Works as advertised: plays PAL, NTSC, multi-zone.
A couple of negative points:
- DivX navigation is slow. It takes forever to fast forward, pause/resume.
- 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.
Rating: - Good bare bones codefree dvd player for price
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.
Rating: - No need for other DVD player
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!
This machine will play it all!
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.
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?
