Region Free *

 

Region Free *

I purchased this dvd player because I have some Japanese anime films that are region 2 only. And so I bought this region free dvd player and it works wonderfully. The sound, picture and look of this dvd player is just as good as any other dvd player. I...

It died on me.

 

It died on me.

The player worked fine when new, but has been in a steady state of decline ever since. I assumed this was due to scratched DVDs, but now it won't play brand new ones. Phillips lost a customer. My next DVD player will not be a Phillips brand.

The worst. 3 of these DVD players died in less than a year.

 

The worst. 3 of these DVD players died in less than a year.

I should have known this was a bad product considering how cheap it was. Anyway, I had three of these break on me in less than a year. I'd like to say I have had luck with technology but thats not the case, this really is an awful dvd player.

Great for avi and mpg videos, plus NTSC *and* PAL

 

Truly unique player, and great price! I did a lot of searching, and could find *no* other DVD players that could play .avi and .mpg (and .mpeg) files, *and* play both NTSC and PAL DVDs -- for such a great price! I am *very* picky, and I just could not ...

1. Play avi & mpg files on data discs2. Play NTSC *and* PAL DVDs.

Doesn't *resume* play on video files on data discs - only with regular DVD discs.

Can't play a complete DVD

 

Can't play a complete DVD

Things started out fine but within a year it got bad fast - it can't play an entire DVD without sputtering, skipping, or crawling to a complete halt. Going to throw it in the trash.

A Waste of money

 

A Waste of money

Just like previous reviewers said - my Philips DVP3040 can't play an entire DVD without stopping, sputtering or slowing to a complete halt. Do not waste your money.

Will meet low expectations.

 

This is our secondary DVD player, purchased on sale at one of the Big Box stores without much thought. I can't say it's the best or worst player I have ever had. It's fair in picture and fair in sound, but you wouldn't buy this low end a model if you ...

Easy to use. Small footprint.

no fast fwd, return. Problems with damaged disks.

Skipping Issues

 

Skipping Issues

I had the same problem as the reviewer above. Huge skipping issues, even on brand new DVDs, not too long after purchase. The thing does look terribly cheaply put together.
