It Took Five Tries to Find a DVD Player That Plays All Formats

by  jeavinl ,  Jun 17, 2006
65 out of 65 people found this review helpful.
Pros: plays almost all DVD & CD formats including DivX, sharp images, good sound, affordable
Cons: images and sound could be better
The Bottom Line: This is a great DVD player for non-technophiles who just want a good-looking player that reads a ton of formats (including dual-layer discs) with good image and sound quality.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Even though we rarely watch DVDs, we ve gone through five* (hubby had to replace his PS2 once) different players over the past five or so years. My husband initially dragged me into the DVD world by buying a PlayStation 2 and persuading me that we d...

brad's Experience

by  brad ,  Apr 20, 2006
60 out of 60 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Will play almost any format/codec burn or commercial DVD you put in it.
Cons: Not HDTV/HD Movies compatible.
The Bottom Line: Buy this player for your home audio/video setup while you wait for the HDTV/HD movies situation to develop. And that should be a good 24 months or more.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: The absolute current model number of this player is: Phillips DVP642/37.

Take this from a guy who has run through nearly a dozen DVD players. This includes one MS Xbox used as DVD player, because prior to getting that thing, I couldn't...

Philips DVP642 DVD Player - Plays PAL and DivX, But Otherwise Flawed

by  dkozin ,  Feb 17, 2006
47 out of 47 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Price, connectivity options, features, PAL playback and conversion to NTSC, computer video playback
Cons: Horrible remote, cheap LCD display, only 8x scan speed, poor GUI, not easy to use
The Bottom Line: If you need to play PAL discs on an NTSC TV, play computer files and DivX, the DVP642 is a good choice. If you want an inexpensive DVD player that...

Review: After one of my DVD players (a Panasonic DVD player) died with a dreaded HO2 error, I managed to temporarily revive it by opening the case and manually spinning the disc once. It had worked for a week after that, but all reports online pointed to...
