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...
