This is a really nice DVD player. Got this for 70 bucks at Circuit City. 1080p upscaling through HDMI, plays Divx and Divx Ultra, USB port for ipods and flash drives, and support for nearly any DVD. I also region unlocked the DVD player, if anyone wants to know how to, message me or comment on the video

i never used the hdmi otion using the hdmi cable b4 till yesterday the difference is amazing very close to bluray good alternative if ur not fussed about being the latest.
Phillips is the best option for DVD. excelent characteristics.
wished philips sells player that plays divx hd and mkv hd on dvd.
that would be beat blu-ray/hd dvd?
very good with an HDMI cable
does USB Hard Drive(powered or non) playback better than a USB Flash Drive on this play?
The USB bit rate freeze is very annoying.
That’s what I used to think, but the PS3 is not the best Blu-Ray/DVD player. Having a good player is just as important as the TV itself. I can definitely attest that it’s not the best for DVD upconverting. This Philips DVP5982 does a way better job upscaling to 1080p than the PS3; it can look almost as good as HD. What bugs me about this player, though, is that it doesn’t turn on right away or respond to open/close too well. And the menu also takes up like 90% of the screen — very stupid.
Yeah i was using the HQ version but that didn’t change the audio quality
I was using a regular point and shoot camera that I got 5 years ago that is why. There is an HQ video option on the video btw.
dude is the video qualitty bad just because youtube sucks or because your camcorder sucks?
why do u think most people are geting Ps3’s for Bluray insted of a BluRay player cus they know Bluray players suck but het PS3 hardly has any probs so ya
Yes it would. Any dvd will be upconverted.
dude i got this for 37 dollars at walmart for my birthday my mom got it for me
I got a similar one,got it set to 1080i.
Very nice picture.
Hows the picture on your Philips DVD player?
thanks i’ll call them. appreciate it
Sorry about the inconvenience. I tried researching this DVD player in particular and only very few people seem to have problems. I would suggest you call Philips customer support and if the the DVD player is still under its warranty period then they might fix it for free.
that was helpful
Not sure.
hey, i got one of these but it wont play my dvds in arkansas USA, is there a fix?
hey, i have a hdtv, so if i brought this dvd player, or a similar one with ‘upscaling feature’ would it play a normal dvd and convert it to high defenition? as in a normal dvd that u wud rent.. it wud convert it to hd?? thanks
It’s pretty good.
how good is the UpConverting/Upscaling on this DVD Player ?
It’s pretty good, not as good as Blu-ray but its does a decent job of upconverting the signal to high res.
how does the upscaled picture look on this player?
What a prick. I see you had no problem searching for and watching the video. Perhaps you have no life.
Wow that is the most amazing thing I have ever seen! – you obviously lead a very exciting life. I bought some toilet paper today.. perhaps i should video myself opening it and placing it on the holder.
