Although i wish they had made the player a little smaller and not as high also i wish the remote had the ability to open the tray and with they made the controler a little more beautiful. i thought i had to reincode my vids in divx, but so many are in mpeg4 or 2 so i just ned to pop them in and play

I had a problem with the 642, after 3 months when paying SVCD's the screen would roll. Worked fine with everything else though. Ended up exchanging it for the same thing and life is good. Other than that it's been great.

Picture rolling? Perhaps the format setting is on Multi instead of PAL or NTSC. I think it's an ID-ten-T error.

Neversoft, enough with the bashing.... You know you want one. Philip's will become your new God (or at least 2nd to your extreme fetishes).

I'm not bashing, I'm laughing my arse off while you guys blow money on a manufacturer of shit Seriously, there's a billion-and-one DVD player manufacturers and most of them are made from the same, standard, reliable, Chinese parts and they play everything, cost about 20 pence and work for a considerable amount of time. Wheras asnything made by Philips that has any moving parts has a tendency to break - it's been the same since the old VHS days.

Do a search for Philips DVD player problems, or if you really want a laugh, look-up the problems I (and thousands of other people) had with the Philips DVR880.

Bashing?... No, warning

My philips home entertainment system works fucking great, I have had it for at least 5 years, and not had one problem with it, I have philips cd-rs and they are the ONLY brand my car cd player plays flawlessly, much much better than purchased cd's.

I have only had one bad philips item, and that was the first dvd player I bought from them.

update on the situation-although i was not able to play the dvd i burned with mpeg4 i tried another dvd with other mpeg4 and they played! its strange how some didn't and some did. i don't know if it is because the encoding or someting. firmware really didnt do anyting for me.
