Im looking for a really -cheap- dvd player that can upscale as well. 720p is enough, but the higher the better, the important thing is the price.

thanks!

@sechiong

mas pino ang dating kung naka switch on ang upscaler.
usually gamit ko ang downloaded avi files, kundi mga 'blueray' copies.

kakataka ko lang sa orange unit nun una, di niya kayang basahin mga dvds na lampas 2 hrs.
naayos naman nila.

bro archie, ano ang exact model ng orange mo, kasi meron akong nakitang orange model dvd-122 na maliit lang at parang lumang model na, walang usb at mp3 lang hindi pa mpeg 4.
ok ito ah, how do you know not naga-upscale sya, naka indicate ba sa lcd screen nya or pwede mong i-set sa settings ng player. thanks.  ;D

@ sechiong

the model should be dv-122mp4, mukhang mas malapad kaysa luma.

pros: upscaling 720p 1080i. currently enjoying 'blueray' pixar animations.

cons: 1)  usb input at rear of unit.
         2) playback limited at 90 mins or so. i have to split 2 hr avi's into two. bad...
             dati i experienced it sa mga dvd's, mayroon inadjust so okay na.
             pero recently nanyari sa avi's mp4, no time pa fix. 
         3) no dts decoder? can't confirm, but those 'blueray' dts output won't give out a squeak.

you get a philips dvp 6620 which is a really nice looking wall mount dvd hdmi player

sir eto ba yung may sariling battery na dvd player so kung naka wallmount sya hindi na ikakabit sa wall outlet?
