If you don't mind putting in a little bit more effort, get a second hand xbox (original, not 360) soft mod it (buy an action replay and a copy of splinter cell, spend 5 minutes doing the piss easy crack, then sell them back on to someone else) and install XBMC which is hands down better than any divx dvd player you'll buy in a store.
phillips p-642. i got one for $40 a while back and never looked back. burn a data cd or dvd and watch all titles. the only codec it doesn't work with is QPEL, which most folks don't use anymore anyways.

i have a brand new modded xbox 1 for sale, i only took it out of the box to softmod and install XBMC, it's still wrapped in the original plastic, also got a receipt with it. PM me if you're interested.

Yeap, Philips is the way to go if you travel aboard: Most of them support both systems (PAL for most of Europe, NTSC for the US) make sure you check out the specs, BUT none of the "desktops" support more than one voltage (120V ofr US and 220V for Europe). The portable ones (the ones with the lcd screen, eg. PET824/17 do support multiple voltages on their transformer and can be connected on both PAL/NTSC TVs)...
