Product Description:
Be impressed with this Philips DVD player with HDMI digital video and audio connection. Step into another home entertainment arena as you immerse yourself with High Definition video (720p / 1080i/1080p).
HDMI for simple AV connection: HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. It is a direct digital connection that can carry digital HD video as well as digital multichannel audio. By eliminating the conversion to analog signals it delivers perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise. HDMI is fully backward-compatible with (Digital Video Interface) DVI.
DivX Ultra Certified: DivX Ultra combines DivX playback with great features like integrated subtitles, multiple audio languages, multiple tracks and menus into one convenient file format.
High definition JPEG playback: 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: 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.
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Link: The Universal Serial Bus or USB is a protocol standard that is conveniently used to link PCs, peripherals and consumer electronic equuipment. Hi-Speed USB devices have a data transfer rate of up to 480 Mbps - up from the 12 Mbps in original USB ones. With Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Link, all you have to do is plug in your USB device, select the movie, music or photo and play away.
Customer Reviews:
 not as awesome as XBMC, chokes on H.264 AVC high, 2008-11-15
Reads acceptable well from high quality USB flash drives like Corsair and Lexar.
NOT a suitable replacement for an xbox with Xbox Media Center.
NOT a front end for NAS.
*** Will NOT play x264 / H.264 videos. ***
Upscaling is nice if one has high quality HDMI cables.
There are many bugs with the most current firmware related to playback of other than DVD video. Don't expect another firmware release. One will likely be invited to purchase the next hardware iteration.
Easy Region Free is a plus.
It is slow to complete power up. Slow to recognize no DVD in tray, then slow to decide to poll USB. Once high quality USB flash device detected no transfer rate hiccups. It is slow to eject the DVD drive. Stopping stand alone media files is VERY slow sometimes requiring mashing stop half a dozen times.
Of the other brands of set top stand alone media file players sporting USB ports we've tested this one was the least annoying.
If one requires MUCH better responsiveness and the ability to play 99% of available formats XBMC on Xbox360 is still the best choice.
