I just bought the Phillips DVP642 Divx DVD player and its great!!!, its played everything i threw at it. It also plays divx/xvid, so no more converting for me Here is an extensive thread on this dvd player: ~*~ http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/82733
The Philips DVP642 is a good one ... mine was dropped by my grandkids .. dented the shirt out of the cover but it still performs flawlessly ... have a Cyberhome also that is used by the grandkids ... it works well but the Philips is much better ...
ivew got a digitrex GK2700 multiregion only paid $79 for it brand new.plays wma,wmp.mp3,jpeg,mpeg,vcd,svcd.cd-r.you an pick them up for about $50 now.
I bought a NEC3520 for $41.00 from tigerdirect and have had it 6 months and has worked perfect without a problem.
For my bedroom I bought a Daewoo progressive scan DVD player at Costco for $23. It plays everything flawlessly . Any type DVD, + or -, bought or burned, all grades of media. Does much, much better than my livingroom, more expensive, very picky, Sony player.
