Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Philips DVP5140 Progressive Scan DVD Player, can play CD-R/W, DivX, DVD, DVD+R/W, DVD-R/W DVD-Video, MP3, MPEG4, Picture CDs, VCD, and SVCD. That's right, all of this in one small package for an incredibly reasonable price. All while delivering quality picture and audio performance. Component video output lets you connect this DVD player to your high-end home television set to optimize viewing quality.

From the Manufacturer
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 sound wave form, giving a much richer audio reproduction.

Multi-format playability allows you to play most disc formats for maximum disc compatibility and listening pleasure.

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 colors, resulting in a more vibrant and natural picture. The limitation of the usual 10bit DAC become in particular apparent while using large screens and projectors.

The attractive enclosure has a very low profile.

DivX Ultra combines DivX playback with great features like integrated subtitles, multiple audio languages, multiple tracks and menus into one convenient file format.

Multi-format playability allows you to play most disc formats for maximum disc compatibility and viewing pleasure.

Picture CD is a CD-R or CD-RW disc on which you can store your MP3 and digital pictures. When inserting a Picture CD in the DVD player, a screen menu will pop up, showing your JPEG's and/or MP3 files on the disc. Just select the music and pictures files you wish to enjoy and press play or OK. You can watch your pictures on TV with your music playing simultaneously.

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.

Other standard features include:
  • 192kHz/24-bit audio DAC delivers high-quality audio.
  • 12-bit/ 108Mhz video DAC for sharp image with natural colors.
  • Ultra-slim design.

4 out of 5 stars I bought this for the divx.   July 25, 2008
What other reviews say about the weird standby mode instead of a regular on/off, the slow-to-respond eject, and the less-than-perfect-remote are all true. But I bought this to have something to play divx, which it does beautifully and affordably. So I am plenty happy. I don't think you can do much better with these features at this price.




5 out of 5 stars Manual Includes NTSC/PAL Instructions   July 25, 2008
I just received my DVP5140 and couldn't be happier. The code and instructions given here worked like a charm. At first the remote was somewhat unresponsive but changing the angle of the player just slightly resolved the problem. The remote has fewer buttons than the norm and for me that is great. Easier to feel your way to the right button in the dark.

What I haven't seen mentioned is that the manual does include instructions on how to set up your system to play both NTSC and PAL. The instructions refer to the NTSC/PAL settings found on the set up menu. So, though the multi-region feature is not advertised, it is documented.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent buy   July 24, 2008
This DVD player did everything I expected.
$40 + shipping for a DIVX capable DVD player is very cheap!
Great buy!!



4 out of 5 stars region free at low price   July 24, 2008
This is nice looking and solid built machine. The best thing is that it supports DVDs from all regions, although some hacking are needed (you can find it the highest review). The remote control is very ugly and hard to navigate in the set up menu. Other than that I would give it a 5 star rating.

If you have DVDs from Germany, Japan, etc. you may want to buy this one. It may be the cheapest one that really supports region free dvd and divx.



1 out of 5 stars Terrible failure rate   July 19, 2008

TWO out of THREE purchased were bad out of the box! You pay little...you get little.
