    First if all, I hope I'm posting in the right sub-forum.

    I currently have a Philips DVD player. But I'm planning to buy a Full HD Bravia and I need a HD DVD player to go along with it. Since I have loads of HD movies in mkv format, I need a player that can play these in HD resolution without any need of converting them to any other format.

    My requirements are:
    1. Divx
    2. mkv
    3. USB support (for both avi and mkv)
    4. rmvb (optional)

    I have searched the internet and found no branded dvd player that can play mkv files. The closest thing I could find that suited my need was the WD TV but it has no CD/DVD drive.
    So, basically I'm looking for a device that has the features of the WD TV along with a DVD drive.
    My estimated budget is under $120.

    Thanks for your input.

    This will probably be the best buy for you, will allow playback of all those downloads:

    Edit: I see you already looked into it(I am reading too fast). I doubt you will find a player that will play all the formats you want, and physical discs.You need to compromise. Or you could buy the proper hardware for your PC and stream to your TV.
