Simply nothing close to it in its price/range
|
The Philips DVP 5982 is really a stand DVD player without peer. For the $59 that Amazon is charging, nothing is close to having its features and quality.
The playing of compressed Divx Video (it has the highest level of Divx licensing), look spectacular, especially when connected to a TV that allows for 1080p and wide screen. Unreal. I can fit about 4 full length videos on a single DVD. MAKE SURE that you don't compile a Divx video with a width greater than 720 !! With the upconverting it doesn't matter anyway.
I have used the USB input lots of times. For playing Divx compressed video as well as music. Looks great and sounds great.
One simple connection with a single HDMI cable to your TV or PCs high level graphics card and that is all that is needed for HD video and audio.
The most important thing is how great the output of DVDs, Divx, MPEG video looks and how good the .jpg photos look and the audio sounds.
That is the bottom line.
Some lose the fact of what they get a DVD player for and what is important is the flexibility of the formats (especially having Divx and allowing for USB in), the HDMI out, the up converting, and how flipping good DVDs and other videos look and sound !!
For $59 I am not looking for perfection. Yes, I would like the remote to be laid out better, a few more buttons to run it manually if I want, BUT, it is $59 !!!!!!!!
Those that have issues with it playing I guarantee are because they do not understand multi-media and give knee-jerk reactions rather than research it. Plus it always takes some time to get used to the remote and some idiosyncrasies of it.
At this price-point, nothing is close.
Please don't be a CONSUMER SUCKER and waste money on Blue-Ray and big name products. Lets expand what compressed video can do, which saves all of us SOOOO much money.
