What Miles said.
The bonus feature with Phillips DVD players is that after you get it you can punch an access code on the remote and the DVD player will become region-free allowing you to play DVDs no matter what country they were released in. That alone was worth the price of admission for me.

Here's a good resource for what Innuendo is talking about:

Reading through those listings I found "remote hacks" that worked with all of my Philips DVD Players and my OPPO. Esp. being a fan of Asian films I was able to play a lot of DVDs I got from Hong Kong that were region 2 or 3. It's also good to get a player that can handle both PAL and NTSC. Saves doing a lot of conversions. The 5990 I mentioned can handle both formats. The only thing really missing is playing x264 or HD divx/avi/xvid .. afaik it won't play anything with res larger than 720x576 PAL or 720x480 NTSC.
Although if you have an HD avi source or some other HD format source, often DVD Flick will make a really clean looking standard DVD from it... which the player will upconvert. Not as nice as BluRay I'm sure but ok for people on a budget like myself.

We are very limited here with different models, but looks like Phillips is the way to go!
CleverCat:
We have the 3360 - but doesn't say if you can use an external Hard Drive, only Flash?

On searching I've found it should be possible to use external enclosure if it's FAT32 format. :Thmbsup:

http://www.consumer.philips.com/c/blu-ray-dvd/hdmi-1080p-divx-ultra-karaoke-dvp5996k_98/prd/za/ might be a better choice for the future, if you can afford this player.
