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.

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.

 Don't buy this if you need a multiregion DVD player December 4, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Although this DVD player came up in a search for multiregion DVD players, it only supports Region 1 DVDs. I cannot comment on the performance of this DVD player; my rating of one star is only because it supports only Region 1 DVDs when Amazon's search billed it as a multiregion DVD player.
Great for the price December 3, 2008
On the plus side, this unit will play [almost] anything you ask it to. On the minus side, it lacks a lot of functionality that might come with a more expensive machine. Most frustrating - it goes to standby after 10-15 minutes of being paused and doesn't hold memory of where you stopped watching so you have to find where you left off manually. Also, upon power-up it insists on loading the disk in the drive before it will allow you to open the tray to replace it with another one, leading to silly delays.
It might be a little rinky-dink, but for the price it is acceptable.
Great buy if you're desperate for overseas dvds December 2, 2008
I just received the player today. The remote is crappy, as so many others have indicated, so it took me about 3 tries to get it coded region free as one of the reviewers has previously set forth. I put in my Region 3 dvd of L'Arc~en~Ciel Chronicles from Japan, and I'm now jumping for absolute joy! The picture is clear and looks like HD on my non-HDtv. It's a great buy. I just wish that I had waited to purchase. It has gone down a few bucks since my purchase on Friday.
DVD Player December 1, 2008
For the price, this DVD player is compact and produces a good quality picture and sound.
Good purchase November 24, 2008
This DVD player is as described. Plays everything, but is very slow to response and with a lousy remote control. But I knew it in advance from other people's reviews, so I don't complain. I think it is a very good purchase for the money.
