Manufacturer's Description

12-bit/108MHz video processing for sharp, natural images

12-bit Video DAC is a superior Digital-to-Analogue-Converter that preserves every detail of the authentic picture quality. It shows subtle shades and smoother graduation of colours, resulting in a more vibrant and natural picture. The limitation of the usual 10bit DAC become in particular apparent while using large screens and projectors.

DivX Ultra Certified for enhanced playback of DivX videos

DivX Ultra combines DivX playback with great features like integrated subtitles, multiple audio languages, multiple tracks and menus into one convenient file format.

Plays DivX, MP3, WMA and JPEG digital camera photos

Multi-format playability allows you to play most file formats for maximum listening and viewing pleasure, including MP3, WMA, JPEG and the popular DivX digital media format. DivX playback enables you to play and share compressed high quality DivX video content beyond your computer.

Smart Sound optimizes audio settings

Smart Sound provides the optimal sound settings for ultra bass, bass, treble and balance so that you can get the best entertainment experience.

192kHz/24 bit audio DAC enhances analogue sound input

192KHz sampling enables you to have an accurate representation of the original sound curves. Together with a 24-bit resolution, more information is captured from the original analogue sound wave form, giving a much richer audio reproduction.

High quality outputs for analogue and digital audio

Plays CD, (S)VCD, DVD, DVD+R/RW, DVD-R/RW

Progressive Scan component video for optimised image quality

Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending a field comprising the odd lines to the screen first, followed by the field with the even lines, both fields are written at one time. A full image is created instantaneously, using the maximum resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives a sharper picture with no line structure.

Ultra-slim design that fits anywhere

USB Direct plays photos and music from USB flash drives

Simply plug your device into the USB port on your Philips DVD system. Your digital music and photos will be played directly from the device. Now you can share your favourite moments with family and friends.

    Very good piece of kit4
    I bought this to replace a previous Philips DivX-DVD player that lasted me about 3 years. It plays almost any movie file whether DivX or XVid encoded. This one comes with the USB feature which is a clever add-on. This saves a lot of time spent writing files to disc, without any apparent difference in play/load speed. It only gets 4 stars as the remote doesn't work unless you point it directly at the set and I often have to press the buttons more than once to get a response. It's also a bit noisy when reading from discs in the tray. Nonetheless it's well worth the price.

    Fantastic, just what I needed a USB connection5
    Based on the reviews, I brought one of these for my mum & dad so I could easily give them .avi files to watch. It worked like a dream, so much so that I've brought 3 more for my sister, my neighbour and myself.
    Can't recommend this highly enough, and can't fault Pixmania-UK.
    I use it in conjunction with a "Buffalo RUF-C8G/U2 - 8GB USB 2.0 High Flash speed" which works perfectly and fast.

    Whoa! Plug'n'play right from the box.5
    I was a little concerned about going for something so cheap, but I needn't have worried! Plugged it in and it worked straight from the box. Played a disc I couldn't play on my previous player and played a region 1 disc without having to change any settings. Well pleased and I haven't even tried all the features yet. Excellent service from PixMania too.
