Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Displays subtle shades and smoother graduation of colours, resulting in a more vibrant and natural picture. The limitations of the usual 10bit DAC become particularly apparent 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 soundwave form, giving a much richer audio reproduction.

High quality outputs for analogue and digital audio.

Play virtually any discs you want - whether CDs, (S)VCDs, DVDs, DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW or DVD-RW. Experience unbeatable flexibility and the convenience of playing all your discs on one device.

Play MP3s, WMA and JPEGs, and experience the convenience of sharing media files on your TV or home theatre system - in the comfort of your living room.

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.

    4.0 out of 5 stars great little value player!, 13 Jul 2007
    By Kalpesh (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
    My first impressions of this dvd that it is well built and looks great. The Philips dvd player is small and slim, and so it is perfect for small rooms. You must be careful if you intend to put the dvd player on one of those tv and dvd wall brackets because it may not fit as the dvd player is small.

    The dvd player plays all dvds, inc copys.

    The dvd player does not have 'last memory' and so if you turn off your dvd player for a break then unfortunately you go back to the beginning of your DVD.

    On the positive, the dvd player has a great picture and sound quality, and looks great.

    You can follow the following instructions to make your philips dvd player multi region!!!!!

    1. Turn on the unit
    2. Open the loading tray
    3. Press the "Setup" button on the remote
    4. Navigate to the "Preferences" page using the right arrow key
    5. Enter 138931
    6. You will now see the current region code displayed
    7. Use the Up/Down arrow keys to select the region required or "0" for all regions
    8. Press the "Play" button on the remote

    I have given the DVD player 4 stars because of the absence of 'last memory'.

    I hope my review has helped!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Buy, 10 Oct 2007
    By HJ (Wales, UK) - See all my reviews
    No Open/Close button for the disc tray on the remote is not really so annoying. You can't put a dvd in the player by remote control afterall and thinking back I only rarely used that button on my old player's remote, the only advantage in any case was the tray being open before I reached the player, and it's not like it takes ages for the tray to open.

    I was a bit bothered that it was multi-region 'capable', my old player was fully multi-regional and my only experience of region hacks prior to this was pressing 1 repeatedly while the dvd loaded, and while the NTSC film would play none of the functions such as Pause etc. would work.
    No such problem with this player, the region hack -- posted in an earlier review here :) -- works fine and not only that it stays in, you don't have to repeat the process again unless for some reason you wish to change the region code again.

    It doesn't come with skart or AV cables so you need to buy either separately if you don't have either already.
    Overall a great buy, can't go wrong with Philip's, recommended.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent no frills little player, 22 Oct 2007
    I just bought one of these to replace an ageing (but expensive) unit that decided overnight to stop playing discs.

    The picture quality of this is superb for something that costs less than 30 quid. It does exactly what it says on the tin, plays your dvd's for you.

    Couple of caveats - it only has a digital coax output, and no onboard surround sound, may be an issue for some, but not me. My only gripe was having to manually change the player's picture settings between 4:3 and 16:9 depending on the aspect ratio of the film I was watching. In 4:3 letterbox mode, it switched my 16:9 TV into WIDE mode, but the picture quality was just not quite as good, (noticeable blurring on tight cross-hatched areas was evident), as when both player and TV were in native 16:9 mode.

    A couple of other reviewers have mentioned that there is no Eject button on the remote - a few minutes sitting on the lavatory with the instruction manual in hand would have revealed that pressing and holding the Stop button ejects the tray. Remember BAGS, RTFM.

    I'd give it 4.5 out of 5 if I was allowed to, but I can't, and on the basis that nothing's perfect, it gets a 4.

    3.0 out of 5 stars It's OK, but the subtitles often dont work
    The DVD player is light and thin and therefore fits most setups. The picture quality is fine, especially considering the price. Read more
