Philips DVD Player with 1080p Upconvert & DIVX

I got one of these last woot. The USB works pretty good. I have a 500 GB drive hooked up and it plays most of my movies.

Pick up another one for a spare :slight_smile:

Have one of these and LOVE it!

Don’t they cost this much new?

Do any of these have the usb’s on the front?

Are these a good DVD player? How is th upconversion?

Philips? No, thank you.

I bet these will go fast, they always have…

I wish they would make these things with the ability to play the Matroska MKV format. MKV = FTW.

Nice… don’t NEED no stinkin BluRay

No Optical audio out?!?!?

I got this player the last time it was offered. It is awesome to be able to use a memory stick to watch videos.

Encoding the videos correctly is a bit challenging. It took me awhile to find the right combination of codecs and bitrates for the optimal quality. I don’t have it with me right now, but send me a message and I’ll send you the Linux command line you need to use.

Ah - well then – Phillips, the highest quality name in … nothing.

these are killer - the usb is awesome.

I already have one though - You guys buy some k? that’s my plan.

not bad.

I just bought one of these from woot and it works really well. It’s really thin and takes up almost no room on the “entertainment” shelf It looks good with my PS2 sitting on top of it.

The Smart Post delivery of this item beat the USPS delivery of the sellout hdmi cable ordered the same night.

They must have an endless supply of these cause they are always trying to sell them

“silver rim”

Crap noodles! I wooted one of these without the USB port a few weeks ago for $25.

I love USB ports. Stick one in a duck and I’m in for three!
