THE BEST VERSATILE PLAYER-EVER!

THIS DVD PLAYER TAKES VIDEOS AND MOVIES TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL!
1-IT'S A TOP OF THE LINE DVD PLAYER W/PRO.SCAN-PLAYS ALL DVD's.
2-THIS ALSO PLAYS A FULL LENGTH MOVIE ENCODED IN DIVX AVI FILE
FORMAT ON A COMPACT DISC.

USING A REASONABLY FAST COMPUTOR,AND THE PROPER DIVX BRAND
SOFTWARE-DR.DIVX,AMIGO DVD MAGIC,YOU CAN INEXPENSIVELY CONVERT
DVD DISCS,MOST VIDEO FILE TYPES INTO DIVX FILES AND THEN BURN
THE DIVX FILE ONTO CD.
HERE'S JUST AN EXAMPLE OF ONE OF MY DIVX CD's:
A 1 HOUR,40 MINUTE DIVX MOVIE FILE IS RECORDED ON ONE CD.
THE VIDEO QUALITY IS COMPARABLE TO A 2HOUR-MODE VHF TAPE-
GET THE PICTURE?
THIS DIVX PLAYER PAYS FOR IT SELF IN THE VERY LONG RUN.
ONE LAST BUG,THESE DIVX MOVIES ALSO PLAY ON COMPUTORS WITH
CD-ROM ONLY DRIVES.
I HAVE 28 DIVX MOVIES ON CDs AND THEY ALL PLAYED WELL,SOME WITH
ZOOMING MODE ON.

Very nice player, lots of extras, but...

I was surprised at the player's speed. It's fast enough when starting playing a dvd, or a DivX formated film.
fast forward, reverse on dvd is 8x,16x,32x,48x, the same for divX. when playing divX films seeking is a bit slow(you wait app. 10seconds or so).

As for the subtitles in the divX format, they are automaticaly selected -nice, but ONLY if they are in the same folder with the film file (you don't have the honour to locate and select the file yourself), and ONLY if they are in microdvd subtitle format.

The player is firmware upgadeble, so there's chance this issue can be resolved.

My digital camera's .avi (AIPTEK 3200) or .quicktime (KODAK 3.2M) format video clips ARE NOT SUPPORTED.
That's very disappointing, since i have cd's with pics (.jpg) and video clips and i can only see the pictures.
It plays some .avi format clips but not all and i can find nowhere in the manual OR the web page EXACTLY what formats are supported.

Some pausing was observed when playing a divx 3.11 low motion film at 1015kbit/s video and 127kb/s audio, 1 in 120 films i have seen.it's annoying, but hopefully only 1 in 120!!!!

multiple content cd's are supported, very nice...

cd's with lots of pics, video, and mp3 will make you wait a lot untill the player makes up it's mind and decides to show you the screen where you select what you want to do... see, hear...

THE GENERAL IDEA IS THAT IT WORTHS THE MONEY SPENT. SOME THINGS STILL CAN BE IMPROVED, OTHERS ARE FINE JUST AS THEY ARE.
RECOMMEND ONLY IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A DIVX COLLECTION OF FILMS.
