DVP642 sounds ideal but doesn't seem to be available in the UK. Bugger.

I got this DVD player last week. The only problem I have is that it won't play divx3 avi's that were encoded with virtualdub. Ones encoded with nandub will play. I tried MPEG4 Modifier, but it doesn't see them as being a valid MPEG4 video.
I have a JVC XV-N312 DVD player a month ago, and it plays everything. from PAL to CD-RW and i got it at future shop for 135.99 canadian, which was on sale.
In the old thread, I had said I was also trying to find the DVP642, but they were sold out. A week ago, however, I finally got it. And it is awesome! And only $70!!
P.S. To make it region free, follow these steps:
1. Turn on the player.
2. Open the tray.
3. Press the following sequence on the remote: 7 8 9 OK 0
4. The number 0 will appear on the lower left side of your screen.
5. Your player is now region free! Put in a DVD and enjoy!
The zero after the 789 OK is the region, you can change it to any region, or just put it at 0 for all regions (I hear this has flawless PAL to NTSC and vice versa conversions too)

I think you miss the point,I don't think XV-N312 is divx certified...Originally Posted by Skydragon
Looks like it, thanks. I don't know why they rename these things for different countries, haven't they spotted that the market is global these days!Originally Posted by accat13
If I read the thread correctly, with this I'll be able to simply burn any video file to a DVD-RW as data and simply play it (mpg, avi, asf, wmv, etc.). Ideal!
Going shopping on Monday.
if you have an xbox laying around, you can mod it and install XBMC (media center)... it will play literally anything...
i was gonna buy an avi player, but found out about that... and bought an used xbox for 120... i modded it.. and now its the best thing i've spent money on...
