Philips playback just keeps getting better. I enjoy watching shows from the UK, Australia, and occasionally Asia, and this box handles the various region DVD's, plus does a great job of playing Mpegs and DivX/Xvid avi files in their various formats. My only complaint is that the user interface via the remote can feel a little awkward at times, but the performance, sound, and picture quality are wonderful on my big hidef tv. Great stuff.
 Worst Electronic Device I've ever owned!! February 22, 2008

My BF bought this for me Christmas 2006 because I had just purchased a Philips 42" LCD flat screen and needed a DVD player. I cannot say it ever really worked well. The remote was slow to respond, when it responded at all! It's just very slow in it's overall performance when you want it to do something. About 6 months into use, and rarely was it used, it really just stopped working. I would say it would play about 1 of every 2 DVD's we'd play. Now we're lucky if it even starts a DVD and when it does it doesn't play without breaking and pausing and stuttering. It's really, really, really bad! I would estimate I've used this DVD player less than 40 times in the past year. Unacceptable as far as I'm concerned. Of course I doubt we can get Philips to do anything about it. DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE!!!!
Buy it cheaper from Amazon instead January 6, 2008

This PHILIPS DVP 5140 is identical to the one amazon sells for nearly half the price at Philips DVP5140 Multiformat DVD Player with DivX, MP3, Windows Media Support. Although it ships from Amazon in region 1 mode, its a cinch to switch it to multi-region mode following the instructions in one of the reviews there (http://www.amazon.com/review/R1XJZ8ZG9KQRL7/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm) - I know 'cos I just bought one. I plugged one of my PAL region 2's in before changing anything and it gave me a region error, then I followed the instructions and my region 2 PAL DVD magically played, and on an NTSC TV too.
I only plugged it in for the first time today, but it just worked first time with no set-up at all (other than the multi-region thing).
Only down side so far is the delayed response to the controls, both remote and buttons - other than that, I'm totally pleased.
1 star reflects the price of this page only - not the product.

This machine allows one to view dvd's in any format. It's cheap, of exellent quality and easy to use. Now you can have a complete cinemateque of any artist regardless of which country the dvd was published.
