GOOD 'N' CHEAPNovember 16, 2008 I only buy a component when I absolutely have to. Usually, they cost to much money for the requirements I place on said component so I save and scrimp and work a little overtime until I have enough cash. I dont like the idea of credit or credit cards (THANKS DAVE RAMSEY.COM). I want to OWN what I buy and I only want to buy once. These days above the curve happens every 10 seconds so I threw in the towel and aimed at one point in time, saved my money and bought this Phillips upconverter. It does everything it says it does easily but I found it to be a tad slow to power up and load a DVD. USB works as advertised with same speed issue. I am know to be impatient with new family members so take it as you like. It looks smart in piano black, works good and doesn't make alot of dam noise to do it. The remote is small but if your like me you don't care as long as it has EVERY function available on it and my universal can learn it. So far, again, This little whit/grey/bland remote performs its functions with one bump, direction, angle and distance restrictions. With new batteries I found myself having to find the correct trajectory to lob its old, infrared signal to the DVD unit. My universal hasen't been used yet. I would get the next up-version with the ability to play all media formats of video through USB. This little guy won't do it all but almost. happiness is.
Cut up your credit cards and save your hard earned cash, then buy the next model up if you can wait for the price to drop [...]. The economy will thank you and your financial future will start to look a bit more clear and less of a burdon.
Thanks for reading.
awesome awesomeNovember 10, 2008 i'd recommend this product to anyone and everyone. works as a region-free dvd player and plays divx files from cd/dvd/usb. i plug in my external hard drive to the usb and it basically is converted into my media server. plays mp3's and movies that are on the external usb hard drive. i believe it will only recognize FAT32 format, for external hard drives. i'm not sure about the format issue for usb key/memory sticks. you will not be unhappy with this product.
however, i have to give it four stars instead of five because of the remote functionality. either the IR receiver is not sensitive enough or the remote IR transmitter is not strong enough. unless you point right at the player with the remote, its hard to get responsiveness. also the remote buttons are too hard to push. for $40 you can't go wrong with this. get it now!
good product for the price, but problems with open boxNovember 7, 2008 This is a good product for the price. The upscaled picture quality is definitely not as good as HD but it still looks good. This is a good product to use until you feel like buying a blu-ray.
When it arrived in the mail, I was upset to see that the "new" dvd player had clearly been used: the remote was missing and there was still a dvd in the tray. In all fairness, Amazon's customer service was good: I returned the used one and had a new one within a few days. It was a hassle, but overall I'd buy from Amazon again.
Utter crapOctober 21, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
We bought this machine on special at a local big-box electronics store, and it died within a week. The picture is fine, and it plays everything I throw in there, BUT the sound is horrifically distorted. AVOID.
Plus the disc tray is cheaply made, thin and wobbly. The whole player is made on the cheap, very light and plastic plastic plastic.
DVP5982 is a winnerOctober 13, 2008 We purchased two of these units for use in a display stand for work. I liked the units so well, I bought one for home. We lost one of the remotes on a trip to China, and to buy a remote direct from Philips was almost the price of a new unit. So, I purchased this one for the remote, and now have a spare player. LOL
