Product Description
Product Description
Progressive scan. 12bit/108Mhz video DAC. 192kHz/24 bit audio DAC. Plays DVD DVDR/RW (S)VCD CD CD-R/RW & MP3-CD. Ultra slim design only 37mm high. Parental control. Scart. Remote control.
Manufacturer's Description
Does size matter? Ever heard of less is more? Introducing the best value DVD player. No complications! Just a simple set that plays practically any disc format, including your digital photos with absolutely no compromise to picture quality.
Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending field with 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, the human eye perceives a sharper picture with no line structure.
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 becomes apparent particularly while using large screens and projectors.
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.
RGB on Scart is a cable connection that provides easy connectivity for high quality video output. Multi format playability allows you to play most disc formats for maximum disc compatibility and listening pleasure.

My last DVD player died, it would not drop down a layer on DVD 9 discs. I have alot of stuff recorded on many different types of media (VCD, DVD+RW etc.) and region 0 discs from the US, so needed a
player that could play all of these and is easly hacked. This did the business. It is quiet in operation and played everything I threw at it. You can also open the draw by holding down the stop button on the remote.
Thankyou Philips.

I needed a multi-region player to be able to use the DVDs I bought whilst living in N America.
I connected the player to my TV using a SCART lead (not provided).
The user manual explains how to set the player output to:
PAL - to connect it to a UK TV;
NTSC - to connect to a N American TV (but see limitation); or
Both - if your TV can handle either format.
Amazon's online multi-region guide shows you how to use the remote control to get into a hidden option which allows the player to be set to any region. 'Region 0' is best because this ignores region coding on the discs. You should only have to do this setup once. It took a few minutes to get the right audio settings but was worth the effort to get dolby pro-logic surround sound up and running (obviously a compatible telly or sound system is needed).
That's it! Put a DVD in the tray and enjoy.
There may be a slight risk that heavily protected discs will not work but I expect that even these would run by setting to the same region displayed on the disc. I have already successfully tried: Finding Nemo, Prisoner of Azkaban, Lord of The Rings Return of The King, Die Another Day and Spongebob Squarepants!
Limitation. The player will be less effective when connected to a NTSC TV. The Philips manual warns that it will change only VCDs from PAL to NTSC; ie, I don't think I could have used it to play my UK DVDs when I was in Canada.
Like I said, it works and it's easy.
