Product Description

Philips DVP642 DVD Player - Dreaming of a player that plays practically any disc format while enjoying flawless, true-to-life picture quality? Now you can! With Philips DVD players, indulge in great movie and music entertainment experience delivered right to your home. Smart Picture for personalized image settings Component Video Input Dolby Digital outputs

Amazon.com Product Description

Tap into multimedia fun with Philips' broad-format, high-style, and ultra-slim DVP642 DVD player. The DVP642 is not only a high-end progressive-scan DVD player equipped to offer scintillating images on high-definition and HD-ready TVs, it's a tech-savvy player that spins your MP3- and JPEG-encoded recordable CDs (as well as Kodak's and Fuji's variants of the same) and CDs loaded with MPEG-4 and DivX video (3.11, 4.x, and 5.x files), perfect for viewing Internet-sourced content in your home theater. Want more? The player also converts Region 1/All Region PAL-formatted discs (the video standard in Europe) for viewing on standard NTSC televisions (and vice-versa, if only for video CDs).



The DVP642's progressive-scan functionality allows compatible TVs to display the even and odd numbered lines of an image in a single pass. This minimizes screen flicker, which is easier on your eyes.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVP642 stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

Playback options include five-disc resume, which lets you pick up where you left off on your five most recently viewed DVDs (not applicable for MP3 or JPEG CDs), disc-lock parental controls, and picture zoom for magnification of select images.

The player will play JPEG images one by one automatically, letting you zoom in, rotate, or flip the picture vertically or horizontally. For MP3 playback, the player offers track time display, album and track selection, and repeat (disc/album/track). The DivX media format is MPEG-4 based video compression that lets you save large files like films, movie trailers, and music videos on recordable media.

Philips' 4x video upsampling offers smoother images even when viewing interlaced (nonprogressive) signals through the player's component-video, S-video, or standard composite-video outputs. SmartPicture provides optimum picture settings for color, brightness, saturation, contrast, sharpness, etc., to enhance your overall viewing experience at all times.

The player will play JPEG images one by one automatically, letting you zoom in, rotate, or flip the picture vertically or horizontally. For MP3 playback, the player offers track time display, album and track selection, and repeat (disc/album/track). The DivX media format is MPEG-4 based video compression that lets you save large files like films, movie trailers, and music videos on recordable media.

A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each of RCA coaxial and Toslink optical) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.

What's in the Box
DVD-Video player, remote control with batteries, a user's manual, and an analog audio/composite-video interconnect.

1 out of 5 stars horrible purchase.......2007-07-02

this is the second region free dvd player i purchased and as the first one, it stopped working after ALMOST 2 MONTHS OF USE!!!! please do not buy this item!!!!

5 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL DVD / DIVX PLAYER.......2007-06-29

I've had this player since it came out like 2 years ago because i noticed it played divx. this thing works beautifully. only problem i've had with it is overheating because this baby can watch all kinds of formats and when you watch for a long time it builds up heat. all i did was bought a notebook cooler and placed it beneath it. now it stays cool and plays whatever i want without any problems. i love this player. the end.

1 out of 5 stars sent product back.......2007-06-27

I sent it back, because it was not what I had perceived to be true. From the description, I thought it played DVD's from all regions, but it only plays region 1.

1 out of 5 stars The worst product .......2007-06-23

Bought one Philips DVD player two years ago.It stopped working after several months.I bought another DVP 642 last Nov. in Circuit city, it stopped working again. the worst product I have ever used.Waste of time and money....

1 out of 5 stars Save your $30 for something else..........2007-06-21

This is pretty much the worst DVD player ever created. I have noticed that the price on this piece of $#!% has been going down steadily for weeks. The problem with mine was that the audio and the visual did not seem to want to be on the same page, and yeah, that's kind of not good. I used it with two different TVs and had the same problem; you get through about 50 minutes or so of a disc and you can clearly see that the mouths are moving but they aren't saying the things coming out of the speakers. Save your money and buy a better DVD player or wait until the high def war has come to an end because progressive scan doesn't mean $#%! anyway.

2 out of 5 stars Remanufactured DVP642.......2006-06-12

Great valued unit - but buy it new. Bought a remanufactured unit as a second DVD/DivX player - died on me just after the 90 day warranty ended (No Disc error for DVDs, plays CDs fine). Meanwhile, my original non-remanufactured unit is still working fine after a year and a half.

3 out of 5 stars Good unit for the price ... mileage may vary!.......2006-06-02

I've enjoyed this unit and just bought my 2nd after the first one died ... lasted about 1 1/2 yrs. Other reviews indicate that these units seem to die after some time and I've read it's related to a power capacitor (probably an easy fix for someone skilled in electronics). Other problems are that some DVD-Rs won't load in this ... seems really arbitrary though, not any specific brand. I like it to play .avi files from the computer. If I were just playing store bought DVDs, I think I would choose something a little more reliable. I bought my second one from a retailer that offers a 4 year extended warranty for $20. I figure the extra money is worth it as 4 out of the 5 DVD players I've owned have died within 3 years. So my advice ... make sure you have a good warranty and expect to replace it, enjoy it while it works.

2 out of 5 stars Remanufactured Phillips 642.......2006-05-05

Worked well for 30 days and then started having problems turning on. Really a pain. Won't turn on normally and have to spend 10 min. or so pushing the stand-by button to get it go on. Don't be a remanufactured one.

5 out of 5 stars Plays about it all - .......2006-03-09

I've been using this unit for playing CBT's and although it doesn't like Real Media and Quicktime files there are bunches of converters that will quickly convert these to MPEG and they run great. Much better than being limited to VCD like many players play, because you can burn hours of MPEG video onto a standard RCD as opposed to an hour or so as a VCD or DVD. Google SUPER (Simplified Universal layer Encode & Renderer by eRightSoft) and your good to go.

4 out of 5 stars Good Stuff.......2006-02-28

Bought it for use in Mexico. For its price, it does exactly as advertised. Easily found a region hack allowing us to use it for all regions. Vendor shipment arrived on time and as promised - new manual and very safely packed with bubble wrap.
