Philips DVP5992/37

$49.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
one problem though, if a divx file more than 1gb,it has hard time to read it.
from www.amazon.com
the usb port on the front means it can read a hard drive and play the media files- super cool.
from www.amazon.com
except for the sd/xd/cf slots, all the other suggestion above are 100% doable with the actual hardware, just new software design.
from www.amazon.com
the usb input on the front of the player will accept a flash drive or an external hard drive as long as its formatted in fat32 if its over 32gig in size.
from www.amazon.com
quickly & easily recognizes both usb flash drives and usb hard drives.

Philips DVP5990

$69.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
you can burn a cd, dvd or put your files on a flash drive or even an external hard drive, and it plays them all!
from www.amazon.com
the best thing is it can play divx movies, which i've stored on my usb flash drives and external hard drives.
from www.amazon.com
another huge benefit of this model is that it allows you to play videos directly from a hard drive, saves us the trouble of burning dvd's or copying to a usb memory stick.
from www.amazon.com
i had a hard time getting my external hard disk to be readable, but then realized it had to be formatted with fat32.
from www.amazon.com
at first, i could not believe this upscaling dvd included a usb port for hooking up a flash drive or hard drive.

Sony DVP-FX930 Player

$170.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
-fast moving it has small ghosting but nothing you will hardly notice, i am a big fps game player and it doesnt hurt my eyes or take away from the movies for me.
from www.amazon.com
i wear fingerless workout gloves when using it & even then don't find the controls hard to use at all.
from www.amazon.com
the second change would be the option button on the right, it's so small that it has a hard time discerning direction (using the remote could alleviate this).
from www.amazon.com
the price and performance is very hard to beat.
from www.amazon.com
i have 5 grandchildren who live out of state, and my daughter sends me dvds of them regularly, instead of hard copy photos.

Samsung BD-P2500 1080p Blu-Ray Disc Player

$238.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
so between netflix, pandora, superior dvd upscaling and superb blu-ray picture, it's hard to beat the samsung bd-p2550.
from www.amazon.com
i got the player today and it wasnt hard to setup.
from www.amazon.com
this is especially a problem for audio cd's, because i usually do not have the tv turned on, so it can be very hard to figure out the current track number.
from www.amazon.com
since i already have the line ran, it doesn't matter to me anymore, but if your set-up and house are configured in such a way as to make hard wiring difficult, it may be worth checking into.
from www.amazon.com
i've had hd tv via directv for years but held off on getting a hd-dvd/blu-ray player until the "war" ended and the hardware stabilized.

Samsung DVD-1080P9

$44.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it is not back lit, so will be a bit hard to see in dark lighting.
from www.amazon.com
also on some movies it has been hard to turn off the subtitles.
from www.amazon.com
you can connect a usb hard disk drive (not a usb-powered) as long as it is formatted in fat 16/32 (not in ntfs).
from www.amazon.com
i can copy those to an external hard drive or thumb drive and play back on this dvd player elsewhere in the house.

Panasonic DMP-BD80K Blu-ray/

$264.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.crutchfield.com
manual is a little hard to follow when dealing with analog pcm audio but i figured it out.
from www.amazon.com
i have not done any comparison testing because it is hard to compare video performance of two machines.
from www.amazon.com
that i don't like is the size (width) of the disc tray...it's the same size or a hair bigger than the disc itself (instead of being smaller like most players) so it's very hard to grab the disc.
from www.amazon.com
other internet-based content can be added by panasonic over time, based on user demand (without the need for a hardware upgrade).

i went into the 7.1 channel level set up (which is hard to find in and of itself) and went through the test and it improperly output the front left and rear back left at the same time and then

i can also use this player to watch movies that are stored on an external hard drive.picture quality with hdmi is excellent.

i do wish it came with its own hard drive to allow bd-live functionality.

not only is the audio drop-out gone (on all dvd's), the picture is even better, which is hard to believe as it was already magnificent.

it's been hard waiting to get a blu-ray player, but this one was well worth the wait.
