I Bought this so that i could play video from a flash drive on my tv, and this works perfectly does what it says plays all files (avi etc)also the upscaleing works very well.

This player is superb,easy set up, good connectivity,good picture quality and features at a great price.Very slim fits, fits easily under TV unit.Excellent price and delivery as usual.

This is a really great machine, it does all it says on the box and lives up to all the good reviews I read before I purchased it,the picture and sound are brilliant but its best if you buy good quality cables they really do make a difference,well worth the money and cheapest on amizon. well doen Philips.

A great player for the money. I am using it for our film society and it's doing a great job.

For the price you're not going to get anything sleeker looking or with more functionality. Who wants to fork out hundreds on a blu-ray player, then have to replace all their existing dvds? The HDMI upscaling works a treat - a noticeable difference from using a SCART lead. The USB port is a lovely extra though not sure if you can play movie files through it (haven't tried divX yet but have found out it's not compatible with the Mac movie file format).

As an added bonus it's really easy to make it multiregional using the hack you can obtain from the internet. Love it.
