Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
 | The ideal DVD player for your HDTV Be impressed with this Philips DVD player with HDMI digital video and audio connection. Step into another home entertainment arena as you immerse yourself in High Definition video. |
 | HDMI digital output for easy connection with only one cable HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. It is a direct digital connection that can carry digital HD video as well as digital multi-channel audio. By eliminating the conversion to analogue signals it delivers perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise. HDMI is fully backwards-compatible with DVI (Digital Video Interface). |
 | High definition JPEG playback for images in true resolution High definition JPEG playback lets you view your pictures on your television in resolutions as high as two megapixels. Now you can view your digital pictures in absolute clarity, without loss of quality or detail - and share them with friends and family in the comfort of your living room. |
 | 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, it writes both fields at the same 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. |
 | 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. |
 | 12-bit/108 MHz 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 limitations of the standard 10-bit DAC become particularly apparent when it is used with large screens and projectors. |
 | Plays CD, (S) VCD, DVD, DVD+R/RW, DVD-R/RW Play virtually any disc you want - whether it be a CD, (S)VCD, DVD, DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW or DVD-RW. Experience unbeatable flexibility and the convenience of playing all your discs on one device. |

Everything i needed,

This review is from: Philips DVP5990/05 - HDMI 1080p DivX Ultra DVD Player (Electronics)
I wrote this review to justify this item's overall rating, as its 1 star right now due to the guy below (or above me) whining about the place he ordered it from (Pixmania), and not getting a UK plug and ultimatley putting off prospective buyers.
Right, i'll make it quick. The DVD player just works, as any should now days straight out of the box. Simple scart lead (not provided so get a spare) into your TV and power cord into wall. If you want a little extra quality through the HDMI connection, and you have a HDTV then use a HDMI cable (also not provided). I havent used the upscaling feature yet so i cant comment but as with most, it wont be a big step up from DVD, for the true high def experience you need HD content. But for £63 i dont mind my DVDs being upscaled. The DivX is great, i have a few films i have on my PC and i can now watch them on my TV anytime. Just copy the file onto a USB stick if its above 700mb and plug it into the players front port (usb 2.0 as well), and it plays smoothly off that (my usb stick is good quality, 1gb about £15 so i didnt notice any skipping, but could happen with cheaper drives). Or you can also just copy the file onto a blank CD using Windows copy to disc and it plays no prob on the player. You just navigate to the file using a folder tree system. Overall 5 stars, did everything i wanted it too. Looks good, very slim. Simple to use interface menus, good price - recommended.

Brilliant for the price!,

This review is from: Philips DVP5990/05 - HDMI 1080p DivX Ultra DVD Player (Electronics)
The rather odd review giving this a low rating is quite out of place - Pixmania often supply European spec kit in my experience but usually give a plug adapter.
Bought from a UK company this will be a UK spec and it performs very, v-e-r-y well indeed. If you have an HD TV you'll need to buy an HDMI cable (don't waste money on a Curry's/ Comet con-job cable at £30.00+! Silly shops.). The up-scaling of ordinary DVDs is truly excellent and really makes the TV show what it can do. The previous nearly identical model received rave reviews and this one is its equal and more. Well done Philips.
