Great DVD Player, Beats players at twice the price
I bought a Toshiba DVD player about 2 months ago paid $85 for it and the picture quality was horrid I took it back and was trying to figure what DVD player to get in its place. I didnt want or need anything exotic mainly wanted one to play DVDs back in the bedroom for my 3 year old daughter. I was searching CC website for players and saw the price of this $40 on sale and I was like wow the price is right saw the reviews so I bought it. brbrTotally impressed with it. Its a fairly fast DVD player ...

DVD Player
This player is simple to install and works very well. Not too many features but it does the job.

Very very price effective
What a nice find. It is easily made multi region (see other reviews). The DVD tray can be controlled with the remote, also. To open or close the DVD tray with the remote, hold down the STOP button for 3 or 4 seconds. This player is a very good bargain when you can find it in the $30 range. Progressive scan is a great feature. It's cheap and it works.

Nice for the price!
Product arrived in a couple of days and is a nice compact unit. The trick listed in other reviews that allows the player to become region free actually works like a charm. The only drawback I've found is that the DVD drawer is a bit flimsy and you have to press the open and close button on the actual unit-the remote does not have this as an option.

MULTI REGION CODEFREE DVD PLAYER WITH DivX. PLAYS PAL/NTSC DVDS
Make it Region free you will not regretted:
I bought two of these and was disappointed to find they were both Region 1 only...until I did this:
1. Make sure there is no disc in the player.
2. Turn power off and on again.
3. Open the tray.
4. On the remote, hit 9879 and then 0. This changes unit to Region 0, meaning it'll play all regions.
5. Hit OK on the remote.
6. The screen will display a massage

Great DivX/Xvid Playback
I use this unit purely for watching DivX/Xvid AVI files burned onto CD-R media. Sound and video playback is flawless, and it handles subtitles very nicely as long as you follow the directions in the manual. I love the small size too.

This is almost the PERFECT DVD player - a MUST GET unit
I did my research and wanted to get the Philips 5140 and initially was disappointed that the store only had the 3140 so I decided to buy one to see if it would work. brbrPRO I needed a DVD player that could mainly handle NTSC PAL and DIVX and since the info on the box didnt say PAL but it did say they handle EVERYTHING. On opening the box and setting up the unit I tested it with a mixture of stuff old movies DVD-r DVD+R asstd PAL movies etc and Im very satisfied.brSeveral things that I do like i...

Good Deal - With Some Work
I bought this as a multi region unit to play UK dvd's.
The machine is locked to region 1 so and after calling Phillips I was told they this ONLY applies in the US. If you buy it in Canada it is unlocked to all regions.
2 minutes with Google and a simple code entry on the remote and it is now unlocked. NOW its a great deal. No complaints at all apart from the locking silliness.

Great player
I needed a dvd player for the back room to enjoy movies from blockbuster on.. This player works great, even if the dvds aren't up to par.. The player runs with no skips and a great picture..
