I see that you still have your 2650 with you. Mine won't read the second layer of DVD9s anymore.

Quitacet: I have to thank you for reposting the pics. I attempted after reading the HELP section of this site and tried. Parang palpak nga nangyari. Glad you came to the rescue!
Now the initial review:
LEXING DVD-DIVX 906. PRICE AT 1,700 PESOS FROM RAON ELECTRONIC SHOP'S HOPE STAR MARKETING, STALL 20 (sila lang kasi merong display nitong lexing na mas nagustuhan ko, although other stalls have many other "newer" models of Lexing, ito ang pinili ko kasi ito lang ang merong DIVX sa nameplate although untested yet and unverified ang feature na ito; and i prefer its looks, hindi masyadong funky kasi ang iba ngayon kulay orange tapos ang tray and keys merong blue LED lights, parang JOKEBOX hehehehehe...hindi jukebox ha, JOKEBOX hehehehe)
1. Lexing DVD-Divx-906 Model as printed on the front side. NOTE: THE DIVX IS UNTESTED. I HAVE NO DIVX DISCS TO TRY IT. Better say that as early as now because it is still unconfirmed. (picture #3)
2. Bulky aluminum body type. Tray is also the bulky (not slim) tray which i personally prefer. (picture #1)
3. Two Microphone In Jacks for Karaoke, One volume knob to control both mics na yata; kasi the second volume knob near the display is mark RADIO VOLUME. (picture #2) Yes, this unit comes with BUILT-IN FM RADIO RECEIVER!!! An antenna is attached to the back together with the exhaustive input/output jacks (picture to follow). As you might see from picture #2, the first button on the flourescent display is 'SCAN" which you press to scan FM stations! Speaker is also inside the chasis and comes out from left-right side where the heat vents are located.
4. (Picture 3) You will see there are four buttons here, one circular four-way shuttle ring and a center ENTER button. The four buttons are MENU, RETURN, PBC, FORWARD. Even without your remote control, you can see the Menu of the DVD disc, choose the options available (play/chapter select/subtitles/specialfeatures) if any in the dvd disc using the four-way shuttle and pressing ENTER middle button to enter your choice. Nice feature, at least kahit sira o nawawala ang remote control mo, you CAN STILL view the disc and make use of the basic options/commands! The standard STOP & PLAY/PAUSE are the other two separate keys, and on the flourescent display again, there is the N/P key which is to switch between NTSC and PAL/SECAM system. An EJECT/OPEN/CLOSE key is above the display, beside the tray. Flourescent display in blue LED lights.
5. (Picture 4 & 5) I placed the Lexing above my Skyworth #2650 for comparison. It is almost the same physically in size.
6. (Picutre to follow) At the back, there are TWO GAME PORT JACKS to attach two game pads (comes with the unit) to play first generation Nintendo video games via a CD (comes with the unit also) containing around 300 titles yata! I have not tried it though, but if it works, its another unique fun feature. No built-in games in the DVD player itself. There is complete input/outputa jacks for surround 5.1 channels, a VGA port for you to attach to your personal computer, STEREO SPEAKER JACKS (those in Red/Black na sinasaksak mo ang wire tapos iniipit ito ng jack; its not the same as the video/audio in/output jacks for TV; wait for pics to understand it na lang siguro.hehehehe); One switch for choosing between using the player as DVD or RADIO; and another switch which says IN/OUT, I dont know what it is but it is beside the Stereo Speaker Jacks so i guess you have to switch that in order for audio to come out from the speakers in the RADIO mode. And finally an antenna for the FM receiver is also present.
7. Exhaust heat vents on the left and right side of the unit is present, which also serves as where audio comes out when using it as radio DAW. I have not tried the RADIO feature. I will correct this statement if it is wrong later. Yan lang ang sabi sa akin ng tindera.
INITIAL REVIEW ON PERFORMANCE:
1. The SETUP screen is exactly the same as Monzki's contribution in his Lexing DVD-8800 thread. Monzki attached pictures of the SETUP screen, and the DVD-Diovx-906 shares exactly the same format.
2. OBVIOUS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SKYWORTH 2650, NEXTBASE DVD-9000 and this Lexing 906 is that even after two full length DVDs, each at 90minutes, the Lexing is DID NOT BECOME AS HOT AS EITHER Skyworth or Nextbase!!! I do not see any built in fan on the Lexing, yet, I was amazed na ang lamig ng chasis kung hahawakan mo. My Skyworth is like ang init init na even after just 20 minutes of use!!! But the Lexing 906 is malamig!!!! Take note, hindi ko pa yan tinutukan ng electric fan, and I was watching it without opening aircon of my room. Bow ako sa design or whatever Lexing had to make the unit operate without heating so much. Big big improvement over Skyworth/Nextbase ko talaga.
3. The Remote Control again is the same as Monzki's contribution picture in Lexing DVD-8800 thread. It is white, with one big EJECT button exclusively located on the upper most area, followed by the numerous buttons we see in most of any dvd remote controls.
4. WEIRD FACTOR #1: The Remote Control has a SURROUND SOUND button. However, if you are watching DVD, you CANNOT access that command. Invalid Key daw. I read the operator's manual and there was no mention that you cannot use it when watching DVD. For the meantime, my suspicion is that the SURROUND KEY is only available when either VCD, listening Audio CD or MP3s. Im not sure if this is available when listening to the Radio only. Remains to be seen. Will post when I have investigated on this feature more. Basta, when watching DVD, you CANNOT use the SURROUND key. Weird. I have encountered other brands before (di ko remember anong brand) where they also have Surround Key and it is accessible even when just watching DVDs (I think it was a PROMAC brand).
5. I tried watching the following kinds of DVDs and it recognized them all and played them:
a. Region One
b. Region Three
c. P-type
d. DVD-R burnt from my computer's dvd writer. DVD-R disc from CD-R King inhouse brand lang nila.
e. PAL DVD disc. Nag play normally in color, therefore meron internal switching automatic feature.
f. A scratched DVD na kinuskos ng cousin ko sa sandpaper. It played, no skipping.
SIDE NOTE: Regarding the reading of DVD-R burnt on CD-R King's inhouse discbrand, I tried it also in the CURTIS BRAND (distributed by Techpoint, importer of Nextbase) and Curtis was NOT ABLE to read the burnt DVD-R disc.
6. WEIRD FACTOR #2: The first two DVDs i tried on it played OK. No problem. Each was around 90minutes long (March of the Penguins, Glen Campbell in Concert). When I inserted a Sex in the City DVD, dito medyo may weirdness. This disc contains around 4 episodes of the TV show. I chose one of the episodes from the Menu and watched. After siguro mga 12minutes, BIGLANG NAG TRIP, IT STOPPED PLAYING AND THEN THE DEFAULT LEXING SCREEN APPEARED ON THE SCREEN. THE PLAYER READ THE DISC AND IT STARTED FROM THE BEGININING AS IF KAKALAGAY KO LANG NG DISC! Weird........ So I had to go to chapter select, select the episode, and then input to the estimated minute before it tripped. It then played till the end na.
Kagabi, I placed another miniseries DVD, Moonlighting, into the tray. I chosed one of the three episodes inside. Again around the 14th minute, IT TRIPPED, STOPPED, RE-READ THE DISC AND WENT BACK TO ORIGINAL MENU. I had to again chose the episode I was watching, skip to the minute where it first tripped and then watch from there. AND THEN AFTER LESS THAN TEN MINUTES, IT TRIPPED FOR THE SECOND TIME!! I had to again chose the episode, and then press to the minute i approximated where it tripped and watch from there. WEIRD!!
So, after finally finishing the episode, I stopped the playing. Ejected the same disc. Reloaded. And the again, REPEATED THE SAME EPISODE. This time, NO MORE TRIPPING. Ang weird...!!!
I think there is some mechanical defect but it will be so hard to convince the store, so I will let it pass for now. How can I prove the tripping eh di i have to spend so many minutes, pray that the disc I place will cause it to trip pa. Paano kung hindi? Weird noh...?
After that, to convince myself if there is a mechanical problem, I inserted a Lord of the Rings DVD into the player BUT I did not watch it anymore. I placed the LOTR disc on the tray at exactly 9PM last night. Then I went to go my routine of work, watching TV eat.... hinayaan ko lang magplay ang DVD sa tray. I just went to check if the minutes on the display should match the minutes past since 9PM. If i went to check at 9:20PM, dapat ang display should also show 20minutes has been playing. If the flourescent display does not register the same time elapsed since 9PM ibig sabihin, nag trip ito. Furthermore, pag nagtrip ito, it defaults back to the Original Screen and might not play at all kasi I am not there to chose the PLAY MOVIE command (although some discs I know will automatically start playing the feature movie even without pressing PLAY MOVIE after a certain minute has passed).
Well, I went back at around 9:25PM, then 9:40PM and finally 10:15PM and the elapsed time on the dvd display registered the CORRECT number of minutes since 9PM. What does that mean? It meant, it DID NOT TRIPPED, DID NOT STOP. (Note that my LOTR disc is not even in its tiptop condition physically anymore).
Weird noh?
So far that is what I can share. Tonite will be the last night for me to test and picture the unit since tomorrow aalis na ito papunta sa house ng friend ko. Pinabili lang sa akin ng DVD, and since di ko naman pera, I decided to be "bold" and buy the player I thought gave the most bang for the buck. At 1,700pesos, with built-in FM radio tuner (to be checked if working pa), with game port to play games, VGA port for computer, exhaustive in/output video audio jacks, reads most of the discs i placed on it, can play MP3...... Oh, and has KARAOKE PITCH UP AND DOWN +/- FOUR OPTION (but its not easy to use; they designed it on the SETUP Menu so when you are actually starting to sing and intend to change pitch level, you press SET UP and the music/screen stops while you go to access the pitch control dropdown screen, make your plus or minus choice, press SETUP again to go where you left off. If you happen to want to change pitch again kasi mali ang pitch level na napili mo, you have to press so many times again to reach the pitch control option!!)
At 1,700pesos and hopefully the tripping problem is NOT a big issue, the Lexing 906 seems to be a good buy. If the DIVX works, then it becomes a recommended buy. Im more worried with the weird tripping issue than the availability of Divx feature kasi wala naman akong Divx discs at all. hehehehe....
-
That tripping issue you mentioned could have been caused by a slight power surge. That would usually happen here at home because there's a lightpost here that's quite sensitive to strong winds.
-
Oh i see.... but this unit is supposed to be 110v to 240volts autovolt. dapat kaya niya ang mga ganyang surge, di ba? hmmmm.... but a possible angle din siguro yan.
-
ADDITIONAL FINDINGS:
1. The FM Radio works and the audio comes out indeed from the heat vents from the left and right side of the chasis. The stronger signaled FM Stations gave decent audio reception; the less strong signal intermittently stopped, very chappy. Partly because the player is now located inside a TV cabinet so getting signals is poor.
2. During Radio function, the display DOES NOT show anything at all. You have to guess what station you are in. The two key buttons on the left side of the Disc Tray controls the radio channel. The upper key RESETS the tuner back to the farthest end siguro. The SCAN button when pressed once goes to the next station that it can get reception. The right side volume knob indeed controls the volume of the radio audio.
3. It can play MP3 discs.
4. When playing a DTS enabled DVD disc, and you chose DTS as the audio option, audio still comes out from the TV speakers.
Yan muna ang share ko. I forgot to test the SURROUND button when i was playing MP3 disc.
best to all.

more reviews pls.?very helpful!thanks for all those inputs...
pls.test a divx disc...this is one feature that will seal my decision to buy this.thanks...
-
Will someone please send Bestbuy88 a DivX file on CD-R or DVD-R already. ;D I'm sure we're all dying to find out if it's really DiVX-certified.
Kudos nga pala, Bestbuy88 for your detailed review of the Lexing 906. We really appreciate it. :)

vision-of-love, battousai:
it is always my pleasure to share whatever findings i have with new brand dvd players I have in my possession. I believe to share this inofrmation helps not only me, but everyone, in determining what to buy and what to avoid; what to expect/not expect from the unit; what features makes it different/any improvement over previous players; and so on. I have learned so much from other members' posts here, including you both, and I deem it but natural to share as much as I can to everyone in our community here.
sadly today sunday, the unit is packed and will be out of my hands already. the last test i made was last night and these are the additional inputs I can share.
SORRY BUT I DO NOT POSSESS DIVX DISC, SO THIS REMAINS A MYSTERY, YET, IF YOU WILL SEE THE CLOSE UP PICTURE I TOOK OF THE NAMEPLATE AT THE BACK, IT IS REALLY PRINTED AS "MODEL DVD-DIVX-906"
Add'l infos:
1. Indeed, the SURROUND key button on the Remote Control is only working if the disc on the tray is either MP3, VCD or Audio Music CD. Hindi sya gagana pag DVD ang nakasalang. When a disc (excepting dVD) is placed and played, pressing the SURROUND key will flash on TV a Menu where you can choose between PRESET AMBIENCE (concert, church, rock, live, etc); EQUALIZER (passive, pop, opera, User's Personal Set up) and EQUALIZER GRAPHIC PRESENTATION where you see these bars and it goes up and down to the beat of the music. The content of the disc is continously played, so you can hear the different audio changes as you switch from the many choices.
ALSO, remember I was complaining earlier that I found the KEY PITCH CONTROL to be poorly designed in this model? Because initially I was testing with a DVD disc. And to access KEY PITCH CONTROL, you have to press SETUP, then go to AUDIO and choose PITCH and then chose the plus or minus direction, and then PRESS SETUP again to return to the DVD's content? (Whenever the SETUP is pressed, the movie you are playing is FROZEN on the screen so in this case, you are not aware if the pitch you changed is correct already until you end and repress SETUP to return to let the movie continue).
Well, it turns out that the KEY PITCH CONTROL is EASILY accessible provided you are not playing a DVD disc. If you placed a VCD disc and play it, press SURROUND and then choose KEY PITCH and you are presented the plus and minus bar/graph. Using the remote control (or the joystick like fourway shuttle ring on the chasis of the unit itself), press UP or DOWN to your desired key pitch level, AND since the content CONTINOUSLY PLAY, you CAN hear the changes of the pitch immediately, continously. When you feel you have hit the desired pitch, then press SURROUND to remove the Menu on the screen and then continue to sing!
2. I did NOT test if it reads Picture Files but I am presuming it does.
3. You can see more pictures later on the back side of the unit so you can see the complete input and output jacks for surround, s-video, two game ports for joypad, one VGA port for computer, the Stereo Speaker jacks I mentioned in an earlier post, the Antennae for the built in FM tuner, the 2 switches to control the player as DVD or Radio and if Radio is chosen, you have to switch to OUT so audio comes out from the side vents; A "PHONE" JACK i presume is for Head/Earphone (not tested) and the Nameplate at the back.
4. I might have missed something because I was not reading the manual anyway, but when I was playing a VCD yesterday, I hit the OSD (on screen display) button to see what happens. On the topmost part of the TV, you will see it reflects that the content was a VCD, the Tracks Number played/Number of Tracks in the disc, and the Time Lapse which continously changes every second. Pressing it again, the entire information rolls up and disappears. IN COMPARISON TO MY SKYWORTH DVD-2650, when I hit the OSD button, the first set of info is the same as the Lexings; when I hit the OSD of skyworth a second time, I am shown the time REMAINING for the TRACK being played; a third hit shows the REMAINING TIME FOR THE ENTIRE DISC, and a fourth hit removes the OSDisplay. I do not know how come this Lexing does NOT show the TIME REMAINING for both the track being played and for the entire disc. I might have missed out pressing something else, but for the meantime, that was what I noticed.
5. FINALLY, remember the tripping I complained in my initial posting? Well last night, it happened again. I was playing the DVD of MY FAVORITE BROADWAY LADIES (emceed by Julie Andrews). I went to chapter select and chose a song in the middle of the show already. I hit the chapter and it played. But after perhaps 2 minutes, IT TRIPPED, STOPPED, WENT BACK TO THE DEFAULT LEXING DVD SCREEN, READ THE DISC AND WENT BACK TO THE BEGINNING MENU!!! Again, I chose the chapter I wanted, played it and this time it went continously. After the song, I clicked OSD and then chose the second to the last track of the DVD. It went to my choice and played continously till the end of the disc.
IN SUMMARY, I find this tripping to be a bit WEIRD and annoying; AND it seems like it happens only when I choose a chapter instead of just allowing the disc to play from the very beginning. (Remember the Sex in the City disc where I also chose an episode and it tripped; and then the LOTR DVD which i just let it played from the beginning and for 1:15hours, it just played on without tripping?) It could be that HOPEFULLY this unit was a bit shaken during its transport and MAYBE there is something loose in the gears or belts or whatever that causes the tripping.
OTHERWISE, with its ability to read what my skyworth dvd-2650 can read, PLUS the built-in FM Radio (although very bareboned), plus the VGA port, plus the Game Ports (cute addition but not really one you will give much pogi points, so to speak), plus the Stereo Speaker Jacks, the untested PHONE jack......
....AND IF AND ONLY IF IT REALLY READS AND PLAYS DIVX DISC.... then the LEXING 906 seems to be one worth a second look.
REMEMBER, ALL THAT FOR JUST 1,700PESOS. ITS A STEAL FOR SURE. NO BRAINER.
(just if and only if the TRIPPING is a factory defect on this unit i have).
Hope everyone was enlightened. Sorry this is all I can share for the unit is no longer in my possession.
PICTURES TO BE UPLOADED IF NOT TONITE, THEN TOMORROW.
Maraming Salamat po sa matiyaga niyong pagbabasa sa aking mala-Nobelang report. LOL!!
-
thank you bestbuy88! ;)
sana meron pang isang mag attest kung pwede nga divx,kasi even if it's in the faceplate,it came from raon,so not very sure about that.also sana nga isolated case lang yung so-called tripping.
-
Quitacet: In case the pictures again does not come out, please assist the uploading. Thank you very much.
Last set of pics. If you cannot see it here, please go to www.fotki.com/click4u and open the last album titled OLYMPUS C3040 DIGITAL CAMERA. Inside that album contains all the pics of Lexing uploaded into this thread.
TAKE NOTE OF THE CLOSE UP PICTURE I TOOK OF THE LABEL/MODEL OF THIS UNIT. CLEARLY IT IS MARKED AS "DVD-DIVX 906" ALTHOUGH THE DIVX FEATURE REMAINS A MYSTERY UP TO THIS MOMENT.

Na-try ba yung vga port? Result?
-
Hay ang tagal ng update... napabili na ako. Ako na lang mag-a-update ;)
I bought 2 units. The good news... DIVX is is playable! I can only find videoclips of 3.11 and 5.02 and burn them on a mini cdrw.
5.02 plays flawlessly but 3.11 has no video playback. VGA port works.
Anyway, I think this unit is really bang for the buck. hehe... ang ganda pa nung sales lady, type yata ako kaya lang promdi :P
-
More info please! How is it with a stress test? That is, continuous playing of DVDs. If this turns out to be a good workhorse then I'll also get a unit since I need another one for the house.
-
jopat,
sorry po di na nga ako maka update kasi the unit is no longer with me.
hanep. the divx works pala ha!! thats great. hope your unit does NOT skip/stops like mine did intermitently.
sa hopestar ka rin bumili? meron bang maganda doon? wala naman eh. LOL!
naku, to prove to you im so foreign to divx, i dont understand what you meant by that 5.09 and 3.11 thing!!
anyway, im glad you liked the unit, and indeed, with your confirmation that the divx works, and the vga port works too, i guess, for now, this unit is indeed the BESTBUY for the moment...... again, hoping that intermitent skipping/stopping that occured to my test unit is very isolated.
thanks jopat for the update.

(just if and only if the TRIPPING is a factory defect on this unit i have).
I hope this tripping when you do chapter skipping is just a fluke on your particular unit. . This facility for me is very important. One of the great advantages of going DVD is precisely its navigational features that allow you to go to any I suggest you return and exchange this with one that doesn't trip.
-
just bought this last saturday. so far, so good ok naman performance nya. 3 dvds straight, no problems whatsoever.

Pre nasubukan mo ba yung divx capability?
-
bro,
nde ko pa na-try yung divx capability nya eh. try ko i-test ds week.

@bestbuy88
It's ok bro, I know the unit you bought is not for yourself. I was waiting for the others' feedback. :)
Thanks for the thread and your review, you made this unit my top choice. :)
I've watched 4 dvds, 2 vcds, 2 avi/mpg/jpg discs on this unit as of now but I still haven't run a chapter selection play on a dvd so I can't post a feedback about this yet. No tripping as of now. :)

RAON ELECTRONIC SHOP'S HOPE STAR MARKETING, STALL 20
pahingi naman ng directions papunta sa store na ito?
-
It's far too early to say that it is indeed a good buy. Baka naman ilang buwan lang sira na. Then again, cheap nga lang ito noh? Meron ba siyang service center dito?
Has anybody tested the tripping thing? Anxious to buy this din eh since nasira na talaga yung Samsung ko after 3 yrs. (Not worth it kung parerepair ko pa.)
-
May Progressive-scan support ba itong player na ito?
-
saan ba banda yung raon electronics shop's malapit ba sa raon shopping center?
-
May Progressive-scan support ba itong player na ito?
i also want to know about this....am going to raon probably this weekend and i hope they still have this unit kasi mukhang ok naman and best of all it's so cheap!
-
saan ba banda yung raon electronics shop's malapit ba sa raon shopping center?
HopeStar Marketing is stall # 20 inside Raon Shopping Center.
Directions in finding the store:
(1) Use the front entrance (beside Chowking).
(2) Walk 20 yards straight.
(3) Hopestar should be on your left... stall 20... fronting the stairs and building side exit.

hi, i passed by raon yesterday but stall 20/Hopestar was already closed. stalls 21 and 22 were open,they also had the lexing 906 (same price of 1.7k; same 1yr warranty). i talked to one salesgirl, her name was G, and she seemed nice. so i'm curious why you would recommend stall 20 over its neighboring stalls, mas ok ba service or kausapin yung staff of stall 20? i'm also planning to buy this same model soon, thanks!
-
may service center ba ang lexing?
-
1. as far as i know, HopeStar gave its inhouse warranty. there was no mention of a service center locally, nor is there any warranty card to be filled up. The invoice serves as the warranty.
2. regarding why hopestar was recommended, actually, it was not really recommended per se. it just so happen when i was shopping for a dvd unit, sila lang ang meron nitong Lexing DIVX model. the other stalls all have various Lexing models, but there was no indication of DIVX. Thats why it was shared to everyone that the unit I bought was from Hopestar. But "recommending" that store, hindi naman po talaga naman po ganon ang purpose ng posting. It was to make members here see the unit faster, easier with an identified source.
iyon lang po! i hope those who were able to acquire this unit have been enjoying it with good performance. Basta ang masasabi ko, impressed ako dahil kahit tatlong dvd na ang play ko, hindi mainit at all ang unit pag touch mo, considering sa tingin ko sa construction nito, wala naman built in ventilation fan.
-
i just bought one this afternoon sa hope star. actually madami silang nagbebenta nito doon kaya lang i ended up buying the unit from them kasi sabi ng saleslady lifetime daw ang service warranty nila compared sa iba na strictly 1 year lang. so far so good ang performance, but the durabilty remains a mystery dahil malalaman lang natin yun in the long run. by the way, i got it for PHP1750 kasi nung pagdating daw ng mga new stocks medyo nagmahal na ng konti.

My friend bought Lexing DVD-DIVX Model 5168, how is it different? From the specs mentioned, it seems like they are pretty much identical except that the 5168 seems smaller and lighter. Remote is the same, and hopefully it also plays DIVX as stated on the nameplate.
If you guys can give more information about it, it will be great as I was tasked to look for info about this.
BTW, if it can play DIVX, is there a chance it can also play XVID?
-
sorry to say this to anyone who bought it...
advatage of lexing...
Lexing is very known to generate less heat... sila lang ang mga natry ko na unbranded na di nagiinit kahit more than 8 hours of DVD movies watching...
too much heat will make your player skip reading... but orange can read almost 96% of all kinds of cd/dvd...
about the DIVX features... lexing can play both dvix/xvid and mpeg4 videos... but some xvid it can't play... only audios... divx 3.11/5.x/6.x... it can play flawlessly... but some xvid won't play...
and more shocking with lexing with dvix... and cost around P1,700... di sya tunay na 5.1 channel... naka series lang lahat ng RCA output nya...
i will recommend PROMAC with divx... 5.1 channel sya... kaso DTS is not supported... and promac with divx can play all divx/xvid/mpeg4 videos... multisession or not... dvd-r, dvd+r, dvd-rw and dvd+rw... around P2000 sya... sa mga budget conscious... piliin nyo yung promac na plain lang with round button... maliit lang sya...
i bought lexing with divx... sa raon electronic shop din... sinoli ko when i watch dvd with dolby digital at dts... naka series lang sya... not a 5.1 player...
then exchange it with promac... dolby lang sya... mute ang dts... pero OKAY ang divx nya... kaso di pa rin satisfied... cuz walang DTS... so i sell with my cousin...
and finally the last one in SM appliance center... XENON with divx and USB 2.0 support, progressice scan, vga out, builtin dolby digital and dts decoder... touch panel ang button nya... for only P3,690... so if you can find such this player... i will recommend it... you can't get wrong with this player...
sorry to say it to those who bought the lexing... no 5.1 channel output... pero kung sa tv nyo lang ilalagay eto or sa component's AUX 2 channel lang... this is a BEST BUY...
lexing that i tried...::::
divx/xvid/mpeg-4 player... OKAY...
dvd-r, dvd+r, dvd-rw, dvd+rw, svcd, sacd, hdcd, cd, vcd, mp3/wma... OKAY...
progressive scan, vga out... OKAY...
generate less heat... OKAY na OKAY...
CHEAP... OKAY NA OKAY...
BUT... rca 5.1 channels is a fake... naka series lang sya... so to those who have a 5.1 speaker... di sya gagana...
pero kung mayroon kayong Dobly/DTS decoder/receiver using OPTICAL/COAX cable... or only want to hear STEREO OUTPUT connected to TV or your favorite's component sound system... at walang balak bumili ng original na DVD movies... CHEAP and MORE FEATURE than the others...... then BUY THIS ONE...
hope i help... heheheheheh... LOL...
-
Sen. Joker paano ba malalaman kung fake yun 5.1 nya? dalawang speaker lang yun tumutunog? :-\
-
@thejoker
bro are you referring to all lexing models or this particular one only? i'm planning to buy a 5.1 channel speaker and if what you're saying is true then maybe i should'nt go through with it.
-
How does Lexing compare to Ace dvd players? I came across several models of Ace; unlike Lexing, there was no "divx" label anywhere on the players but they play divx and xvid files; it didn't play my ogg files though. The saleslady told me that Ace and Hug dvd players were made by the same company, except Ace cost less than Hug - and I remember Hug getting good reviews somewhere in this forum.
Anyone know which is better, Lexing or Ace divx capable players? They cost the same....
-
there is only way to test if the unit has a true 5.1 channel output thru its RCA at the back... try to use 5.1 speaker on it...
i think LEXING with the price tag of P1,700 below has no true 5.1 channel... only on OPTICAL/COAX digital output...
and i test this LEXING 906 and 5168 and the orange lining that look like a space schip... with round display...
binili ko yung orange lining na mukhang space ship... kasi medyo malaki yung dalawa... and i bought my XFILES (divx 640x352) and Dark Angel (Xvid 720x400)... and even tried the 906 and 5168... they all play my dvd+r multisesion disc...
pero after two days... kasi puro divx/xvid ang pinapanood ko... nanood me ng Planets of the Apes... dun ko nalaman na nakaseries lang ang front channels to all channels... ang sub / center / rear has the same audio output from the front...
so sinoli ko... then i tried the 906... the same... then 5168 the same... sabi ko kunin ko na lang ang pera ko kasi di ko naman magagamit... at meron akong 10 days return policies sa kanila...
sabi ng saleslady dun meron ang promac... 3203... divx din daw... at 5.1... kasi nakalagay sa box... pero sabi ko try natin... dala ko uli yun mga dvd ko na dvix/xvid... at yung THX/Dolby/DTS demo dvd disc ko para sigurado... at this time sabi ko hook natin sa 5.1 speaker... yun okay ang audio ng PROMAC 3203... it has a new interface... pero parang pinalitan lang ng SKINS kasi the same pa rin ang layout ng menu... but different background... katulad ng menu ng LEXING na nabili ko sa kanila... so nagdagdag ako ng P500 para sa PROMAC... mahal daw kasi sa warranty... so okay... PROMAC ang binili ko..
habang naglalakad... napansin ko na walang logo ang DTS sa kahon... everything is there... but no DTS logo... so i tried it pagkadating ko sa bahay... no AUDIO output when you select DTS... even on the digital OPTICAL/COAX... no DTS... then when i read the manual... DTS is not supported... MUTE ang audio if you select DTS language...
pero PROMAC pass all the test i tried... all kinds of cd/dvd i tried... pati sa divx/xvid... even tried the latest DIVX codec which is 6.0 pro... nare-read din nya... i'm very satisfied but something inside me that tell i shouldn't... {{sigh}}... so i end up selling it to my cousin...
so here it is... if you want to try the 5.1 channel... only way is hook it on 5.1 speaker... and test every speaker output... but some salesman and saleslady will tell you the truth... at eto ang sinabi nila sa akin... yung may mga GAMES or RADIO daw ay nakaseries lang ang output... di daw 5.1... puwede mo silang tanungin... pero the best way is to test it... okay....
so LEXING DIVX players... is A OKAY... if you don't want to use 5.1 speaker thru its RCA analog output... i will guarantee it to those who want a DIVX player thats very cheap... P1,600 yung orange ang outline na mukhang spaceship... P1,700 naman dun sa 906 at 5168...
PROMAC 3203 is also a BEST BUY... P2100... small... compact... looks good... but no DTS...
i will recommend this two... no problem whatsoever i encounter while using this two... only time will tell kung tatagal ba talaga sila... pero 1 year is enough... tumagal lang sila ng isang taon... okay na... sulit na ang pagkakabili mo... cuz repair on DVD LENS or a new DVD LENS will almost cuz a new DVD player... so imbes na ipayos nyo... bili uli kayo ng bago... siguro after 1 year... meron na uling bagong model and maybe has a new features also...
so kung wala kayong balak bumili ng ORIGINAL na DVD MOVIES... puro sa QUIAPO lang kayo bibili... wag na kayong bumili ng mga BRANDED na DVD PLAYER... sisirain nyo lang ang lens ng mga eto... DVD PLAYER na generic has their lens calibrated espcially on TRACKIN/FOCUS so that it can read all kinds of dvd/cd disc on the market that mostly found on QUIAPO stalls...
di tulad ng mga BRANDED DVD PLAYER... makakabasa sila pero too much heat/voltage/current on IC Driver that handles the FOCUS/TRACKING... too much stress will put on the lens... unless you are a NO PIRACY afficionados... then go with PHILIPS and PIONEER... they are the best...
hope i helps... thanks a lot... hehehehehhe... LOL...
-
naka set ba sa 5.1 channel yung audio setup nung Lexing when you tried it? Ang default setting kasi is two-channel.
-
Yup, I think its more with the Audio Settings.

Hello folks.. newbie po ako dito.. :)
Konting background lang.... Ive had 3 DVD players (plus 2 sa parents and sis ko).. 2 of them nasira na, and the one i was using cant play a lot of discs i buy or borrow from my friend. Been meaning to get a new DVD player for a while now, and narinig ko sa mga chatmates kong taga U.S. na meron daw DivX capable DVD player... hanap ako ng hanap kung meron nyan dito sa pinas, dami ko ng stalls natanungan (divisoria, sta cruz, tiangge sa malls, greenhills, etc) WALANG may alam ano ba itong DivX na pinagsasabi ko... akala ko sa US pa lang meron nun at pinagiisipan kong magpabili ba sa kamaghanak sa US/HK or bili na ko dito ng regular player lang.
This Saturday, bigla kong naisipang mag Google at nahanap ko nga itong PinoyDVD.com... wow!! meron pala nito dito!! I surfed till 2:00am nung Sat (Sun na pala) at Sunday pm sugod na kami ng friend ko sa Raon Shopping center.. sa Hopestar. Sabi nga duon ng girls (btw, tama pala sabi nyo, maganda nga saleslady duon!!hehe ;D ) e may kakabili lang ng 2 unit ng lexing at dami rin dalang DVD na pang testing (like me). Taga rito din ba kaya yon? hehe.. si Valek Sunday din yata bumili.. what time ka nandoon pare? ako mga 2-3 pm..
Anyway.. mini-review and sabay tanong na rin po ako..
Nagdala ako ng ilang DVDs for testing. These are either ayaw mag-play or may diprensensya sa pag-play sa old player ko (but tested na working either nung binili ko sya, or napanood naman sya sa GANZKLAR player ng friend ko..) At syempre nagdala rin ako ng ilang Divx files..
This is the result of my TESTING, ROUND 1 (in the store)
* DivX works flawlessly, at kahit na sa loob ng folder nd CD e mababasa nya.. :)
* DVD (Oceans 12) that my old player cant read, di rin kaya ni Lexing... :(
* DVDs na may errors/pixelations/nagstastall sa mga later chapters (70% w/in the movie.. nabitin nga ako e) nag work! Nabasa nya and i can now finish watching them... :)
* DVD na may 15 chapters/episodes.. 3 chapters lang working sa player ko, nababasa na ni Lexing (although di ko tinest all 15 chapters.. majority played na, kaya lang yung iba e pixelated and parang nag-eerror na.. hopefully makuha sa fast forward na lang) :)
So ok na , i bought the unit already but i wished it played sana lahat ng test dvds ko..
Pagdating sa bahay, meron pang TESTING, ROUND 2...
* First, I tried more Divx files.. ok na ok talaga! Pero i tried ayaw nya Quicktime and WMV files. Pwede MPG files. And may isang disc ako mga Justice league 4 out of 5 na play nya, yung isa audio lang lumabas. (siguro sa codec na ito)
* Second, nagplay kami ng games ng anak ko (aba, natuwa rin sya kahit na 1985 pa pala mga games na ito e considering sanay sya sa mga bagong 3D games sa PC.. hehe)
* Next, I tried other DVDs na di ma-read ng old player ko, di pa rin ma-read ni Lexing.. (one is Monster in Law) :(
* Tapos.. AND HERE AKO NAGKAPROBLEMA.. try ko uli yung mga dinala kong DVDs sa shop na ok naman doon.. ayaw ng ma-read ni Lexing ngayon!! Error disc na ang labas! mas grabe pa sa dati kasi yun e mapapanood mo pero mabibitin ka lang.. what happened? :(
Try ko other WORKING DVDs ko.. , ayaw na rin!! akala ko tuluyan ng nasira.. pero nagtry naman ako ng iba e pwede.. ang gulo... siguro nadumihan kaya yun dahil pinilit kong iplay yung mga dati kong unplayable? or dahil sa games and divx files? i dont know.. e di ko pa mahanap yung dvd cleaner ko.. :(
I tried again, ilan beses kong labas-pasok mga discs.. tapos mamaya e yun, ok na uli lahat!! ang gulo... ;)
Round 3 of testing...
* ayaw nya talaga sa Oceans 12. Pero yung Monster in Law, kakapilit ko yata e napa-play ko rin sa wakas.. pero medyo may tama yata (although sabi sa nanghiram sa amin e ok daw sa kanya.. this is a different friend from the GANZKLAR owner so malamang e ibang player gamit nya)
* Na encounter ko rin once or twice yung may nagsasabing nag "trip" sya.. bigla na lang nag-stop. I tried to use TIME din, pero mas madali e nag chapter select nalang ako at tinuloy ko na lang.
* I tried a Lemony Snickett DVD na dati e 5 minutes pa lang sobrang error na.. nagstastall. Sa Lexing lumagpas sya naman ng 5 minutes..tapos .later certain points e nagstustutter na (parang nag frefreeze frame-andar, freeze-frame andar..) Ginawa ko, I paused. Tapos Play uli.. bumalik sa normal speed. Did this several times until later e parang may err pa rin.. di ko na tinapos since testing phase pa ako...
CONCLUSION:
Sobrang tuwa ko sa pagkadiscover sa PinoyDVD.com and i learned a lot.. parang nag-cram ako sa exam kasi nilamayan ko talaga ng isang gabi lang ang mga threads dito. Gusto ko sana sa BestSeven or Nova kasi ang reviews doon e it can take anything you throw at them.. Warped DVDs, DVD-R, scratched discs, etc.. yun bang feeling ko e it can play lahat nitong problematic DVDs na triny ko.. the only drawback is.. di sila DIVX capable. E gusto ko talaga may DIVX player, investment for the future dahil balak kong mag-DSLl one of these days...
Sayang, sana may player na kasing astig ng mga NOVA na yan pero DivX capable.. (binibida nga ng friend ko yung GANZKLAR nya 1 year old na but can play anything.. pero feel ko nga e mas maganda pa siguro kesa GANZKLAR yung mga BestSeven and Nova na yan..)
Ok na rin sa akin ito siguro.. I will test this further this week. So far e puro testing pa lang ako at walang pang pinapanood na full feature film from start to finish... sana fluke lang yung time na biglang ayaw magplay ng maraming discs na natest kong ok naman dati.. Maybe nadumihan lang yun? what do you guys think? tsaka bakit yung ibang DVD e ayaw talaga? Wapred disc kaya ito?
Re: yung 5.1, DTS, etc.. im not much of an audiophile and wala naman akong 5.1 surround. So i probably wont know what im missing... Nakakabit lang sa stereo na may woofer , pwede na ito sa akin.. ;D and btw impressed ako ha, meron pa la syang 3D feature na may equalizer pa.. parang Winamp.. ;D
Sorry for the very long post (1st time ko pa naman).. excited lang ako sa bago kong player.. hehe ;D
Thanks to all and goodday !
P.S. may isa lang pala akong complain sa Remote Control.. bakit walang off button? Kailangan ko pang tumayo tuloy para ipatay ito...
P.P.S.. oo nga pala.. ok na bonus itong Radio and built in speakers.. ang tagal kong hinanap sa front panel and remote control.. di ko makita... wala rin sa manual ang instructions. Yun pala e nasa likod ang switch.. ehe he he.. ::)

My friend bought Lexing DVD-DIVX Model 5168, how is it different? From the specs mentioned, it seems like they are pretty much identical except that the 5168 seems smaller and lighter. Remote is the same, and hopefully it also plays DIVX as stated on the nameplate.
If you guys can give more information about it, it will be great as I was tasked to look for info about this.
BTW, if it can play DIVX, is there a chance it can also play XVID?
Nakita ko rin ito.. its smaller and lighter nga. Aside from its size, the main differences are:
1) Wala syang VGA port.. (dati nagtataka nga ako bakit may mga players na may VGA port.. what use is this? bakit ko naman ikakabit sa PC Monitor ko ito?? Until i realized from somewhere in Pinoydvd its main use.. pwede nga pala itong ikabit sa LCD projector.. so kung may LCD projector ka e pwede mong iproject sa malaking screen.. instant Home Theater!! :) (pero most of us dont have LCD projector naman e... :( )
2) Main advantage ng Model 906 is marami syang menu buttons sa front panel.. very useful if di mo mahanap remote control (w/c is often my case kasi tinatago sya ng anak ko.. ;D ;D ;D )
Same price lang ang 2 models na ito... when 906 cant play some of the DVDs i brought for testing.. triny ko itong 5168.. sabi ko if it manages to play these DVDs where 906 failed e sya na kukunin ko.. pero same lang, ayaw din nyang magplay so duon na ako sa 906...
Oo nga pala.. i did not take into consideration na mahaba nga pala size nya.. ng nialgay ko sa TV cabinet ko e eksakto lang sya!! bale 1/2 inch clearance lang on both sides or 1 inch total lang ang extra space na natira!! whew!! muntik ng di kumasya!!!! ::)

@LEXing luthor
yup bro i was there nung sunday mga around 11:30-12:00. nice review, keep us posted if you encounter anymore weird things with your unit. medyo busy kasi ako and hindi ko masyado ma-test yung akin, i haven't even watched a full movie since i bought this! only tested a few of my divx discs and yung iba audio nga lang lumalabas, but i think your right about the codecs part. yung sinasabi mo bang magandang saleslady eh yung naka-red? ;) ;)
-
Lexing can't read "DivX MPEG4 Low and Fast Motion" aka "DivX 3.11"... only audio... i didn't have a chance to try the new 6.0 pro...
promac can read DivX 3.11 upto 6.0 pro... but not the 6.0 pro media files...
and yes... i set the DOWNMIXING to 5.1 / off... naka series lang talaga ang RCA analog 5.1 channel ouput ng lexing... but STEREO is OKAY... especially when you have a subwooffer...
but LEXING and PROMAC is still a BEST BUY...
-
all i can share about PROMAC brand is that I hope its new units, new dvd model players have really improved in terms of reliability.
i used to own four DIFFERENT promac dvd players. Lahat po sira na. Lahat po hindi rin umabot ng 1 year life span; longest probably was just 8 months and it conked out. I had to bring them to Quiapo Promac service center. After repair, symptoms comes out perhaps in less than a month.
Thus, my impression of PROMAC brand is not really good. For now.
Thus, when i now go scouting new players, i have this "weird" way of making my decision that even if Promac has better features than a different brand that I have not tested/used/owned before, i would rather gamble on the NEW brand than Promac. Kasi pag masira uli ang promac in less than a year, talagang mumurahin ko lang sarili ko for not learning from old mistakes.
Iyon lang po. But i do wish Promac now has improved its player's mechanism.
best to all.
-
pareho tayo ng feeling ,ako naman e sa NOVA,naka dalawa na kami,puro walang kwenta.inabot lang ng less than 1 year.yung frend ko naman,sa Promac din sya may phobia,pati yung tv nya sa room na promac kinuha na rin ni Lord. ;D
-
pareho pala tayo... ako naman sa LEXING... almost one year lang tumagal... 2 lexing yung nabili ko...
ang gusto ko lang sa lexing is HINDI NAGIINIT... kahit anong gawin ko... ayaw talaga... i don't know how they do it... pero bilib talaga ako... kasi sa orange dalawa pa ang exhaust fan nya... pero after 3 movies... mararamdaman mo na nagiinit din sya... unlike lexing ang hinang maginit... halos paghinipo mo eh normal lang...
meron kasing orange dvd-12 ang panganay kong anak... regalo ko sa kanya along a 2nd hand 15" flat monitor... para sa kuwarto nilang magkakapatid...
mga bata kasi sa bahay grabe manood ng dvd... eto kasi ang pinaka past time nila eh... lalo pag weekend...
kaya unang nasisira eh remote... then ang unit... sabi ko 1 year lang kahit lagi me magpalit ng magpalit... tumagal lang ng 1 year...
sa promac ngayon pa lang me nagkaroon kasi nga yung lexing na nabili ko yung may orange ang outline... di natandaan ko ang model eh... di 5.1... naka series lang yung mga analog output nya...
no choice kasi meron na lang sila promac bagong dating daw... yun nga promac 3203... i tried it everything... okay naman... kaso 3 days lang sa akin kasi talagang di lang me mapakali kasi nga walang DTS... pero update ko dito kung anong nangyari... kasi ang pinsan ko balasubas sa gamit yun... tingnan natin ang torture test ng promac kung nagimprove na ba quality over the past...
thanks a lot... hope i help...
-
musta na sa mga nakabili na nito?what's your new experiences?ok pa rin ba?
-
i just bought this in raon.since i totally forgot to bring my own burned dvd,ive let it and went anyway to buy because of this forum.
and the verdict.i'm frustrated to a point since it can't play almost all my not even scratched dvd's that i burned(it plays on the pc on windvd).even some mp3's can't be read.i also have 2 divx cd and dvd,which it can't read.but the pirated dvd's that can be bought in quiapo and the likes all played well.
should i return this unit?or learn to live with it? :)
-
and the frustrating thing nga pala is,our pioneer and jvc dvd player,can all play those dvd's that i burned(dvd+r) using my dvd writer.i bought this lexing for my room,now i'm stuck with p*dvd's only,which it can very well play,pero pagdating na sa mga burned dvd's,mostly yung dvd-r's ko lang gumagana.hindi pa lahat.yung prodata and imation dvd_r lang din.ano ba yan,bakit mas mapili pa to?
-
i suggest you have it replaced but bring those discs you burned that the unit could not play para mapakita mo sa kanila. the only problem i have with this player is that it only plays audio w/o video older divx file versions that i downloaded about 4 years ago, and it also does not recognize asf file format (to which my "bangbus" collection belongs).
-
it also does not recognize asf file format (to which my "bangbus" collection belongs).
;Dmenyeks,lol.pareho tayo ng prob hehe.andun din sa burned dvd's ko ang porn collection. ;D
-
meron ba digital out ang Lexing, kasi medyo maliit yung pic kaya di ko mkita? based on previous posts hindi maganda 5.1 output niya so ang pagasa nalang is to connect this to a receiver :)
-
@vision
problema ko nga ngayun kung tutuloy ko pa yung pagbili ng digital camcorder which records videos in asf files kasi kailangan ko pa i-convert bago ko burn sa dvd so my lexing can play it. you have any idea how to upgrade the firmware?
-
some updates and comments lang...
Lexing ko naman so far can play burned dvd-r's... di kaya sa media na ito? ive burned 10 dvds so far (3 titles only, just burned multiple copies) and played perfecttly in my lexing. in fact i tested also sa old player ko (mabusisi kasi ako) may 1 scene may error/pixelated pero same disc/scene plays ok w my lexing.. (siguro this is why may madalas sa atin na may disc ok naman sa iba pero sa ibang player e ayaw..)
About sa post naman na ayaw mag play sa lexing nya pero naplay nya sa PC nya... sa akin e kabaligtaran naman ang nangyari.... I had one disc na dating may error and i cant watch the ending (in my old player), then i tried watching sa PC ko, ayaw pa rin.. i even tried burning/copying the disc pero nag error, may part na di mabasa talaga ng dvd-rom drive. pero sa lexing e naplay naman nya. ;D so i guess this means na siguro system and disc dependent talaga yan... paiba iba yata talaga :)
Re Divx capalities... im trying to compile all my divx files to burn on 1 dvd.. yun nga, some plays others dont.
I found a utility called GSPOT... it gives complete info on your video file.. what codec, etc. So far napansin ko Divx3 Low/Fast motion wont play... Mga nagplaplay e Divx4 fast motion (i dont have a divx4 low motion so i cant confirm if it can play or not)
Question now is... is there a good utility to convert these divx3 to divx4? yung mabilis lang sana, other converters kasi tales a long time.... sana someone can suggest here.. :)
-
imho basta encoding matagal talaga and depende na rin siguro sa speed ng pc na gamit sa pag encode.
-
@Lexing Luthor...
fast conversion...??? i think sold your lexing and buy PROMAC 3203... until now... LEXING's firmware is not stable on DIVX/XVID... promac firmware is much stable and latest than LEXING's firmware tapos 5.1 pa... heheheh... LOL... expecially on DIVX3... sa lexing audio lang talaga ang magpe-play... this method is the fastest i know....
but if you have time like me... convert those files... i do it because... MEDIATEK 1389 based player... like XENON, NOVA, PHILIPS, PIONEER... can't support GMC warp point 3... only 2 warp point... eh medyo mga nadodownload kong mga anime na XVID... may GMC lahat eh... so convert ko sya using VIRTUALDUBMOD... medyo matagal pero okay lang... di naman me nagmamadali eh... ganun din sa LEXING and PROMAC i previously owned... di rin supported ang GMC... so tyaga lang talaga... convert mo na lang...
but PHILIPS and PIONEER will be supporting GMC file within DIVX/XVID... pero mas mahal ata ang player na yun... kasi hardware dependant kasi yun eh...
hope i helps... hehehehhe... LOL...

also divx 4 lang ba pwede?how about sa xvid?kaya pala kc i use divx pro 6 to convert files to divx,and it doesn't play on the lexing.
-
Hay ang tagal ng update... napabili na ako. Ako na lang mag-a-update ;)
I bought 2 units. The good news... DIVX is is playable! I can only find videoclips of 3.11 and 5.02 and burn them on a mini cdrw.
5.02 plays flawlessly but 3.11 has no video playback. VGA port works.
Anyway, I think this unit is really bang for the buck. hehe... ang ganda pa nung sales lady, type yata ako kaya lang promdi :P
hehe,si luisa ba yun? :)
ano ba gagamitin kung converter to convert a xvid/avi file to 5.02 divx?thanks
-
any of you experienced watching a movie with this unit tapos nauuuna ang audio kesa sa video?

It may be source dependent. Did you try other players?

Hi peeps,
I bought a Lexing DVD Player DVD-906 at Raon Shopping Center last Nov. 9 at Stall # 21. It has the same looks and features posted on the first page of this thread except for the ff:
1. It has no side vents.
2. A DVD logo is embossed on the top cover.
3. It does not have a VGA port.
4. The back panel has black paint instead of gray silver.
5. Instead of DVD Player DVD/DIVX 906, my unit indicates MPEG4 DVD Player DVD 906.
6. It has a built-in fan mounted under the unit.
The unit performs well with regards to playing DD or DTS movies, original copy or not. Other features also do well. What I can't verify as of this time is can it play DIVX movies, since the DIVX on the panel is not indicated on the front. I don't have the material to verify it. But the sound and picture is pretty good on this unit considering the low price of P1,700. So far the problems encountered mentioned on this thread is not yet experienced on my unit.
Your feedback will likewise help future buyers of this particular unit. Thanks.

hindi ko na rin ibinalik kasi abala lang ang layo ng quiapo.nakakaplay naman talaga sya ng orig and p* dvd's na nabebenta sa tabi2x,pero yung mga burned dvd's andg hindi pag hindi branded na media like iomega and prodata.pag ordinary dvd and cdr's ayaw nya talaga,samantalang pag sa pioneer namin,nagpeplay naman.

USE VirtualDubMod to convert your 3.11 to 5.x divx files... and if you want to use XVID instead... avoid using QPEL, Packed Bitstream and GMC... it won't play on LEXING and PROMAC...
if you want this features... 3.11 to 6.0 pro media files... QPEL, PB and GMC... buy a DIVX player with the newest CHIPSET... it is MEDIATEK 1389...
NOVA, XENON is the only one i know using this chipset that is cheap in price... for P3,000... it is all in there... they are both MULTI-FORMAT capable...
the new NEXTBASE... which is small and white in color... i don't know if it is using MEDIATEK... if it does... then i think this is a BEST buy...
and if you want cd-r and cd-rw or dvd-r and dvd-rw... you must close the seesion... cuz lexing and promac can't recognize this... sometimes they do but mostly they won't read it... unless you close the session...
hope i help... hheheheheh... LOL...

thanks.kung alam ko lang,nag xenon na lang sana ko.anyway,di yata 3.11 yung divx file.also mostly xvid sya and convert ko sa divx,yung mga movies/tv series nadadownload sa mga torrent sites.
pero bakit pati mga dvd na burned ayaw.(converted using tempgc or CCE).media din kaya?ano ba gamit nyong dvd-r brand?cdr?thanks
-
any of you experienced watching a movie with this unit tapos nauuuna ang audio kesa sa video?
Yes!!! It happens to me once in a while !! at first i thought it was a disc problem but i tried a different plyer and its fine. Whats more, sometimes if you stop or fastforward the disc (in Lexing) it will play ok na... weird no?
-
This also happens with my old Nextbase DV9000. I'm not experiencing it with my Lexing MPEG4 DVD 906. Based on the problems cited on this thread, mas may playback problems ang DVD 906 that is DIVX capable.
-
survey lang po.
1.ano ginagamit nyong DVD-R media brand for your burned dvd and divx files?
2.ano ginagamit nyo to encode a video file into divx?
3.anong divx/xvid version ang napeplay lang ng lexing?
THANKS.replies will be greatly appreciated.
-
survey lang po.

Dr. DivX.
thanks.dr.divx keeps crashing on me.sinubukan ko na rin sa virtual dub encoded it in 5.2.1 codec,ayaw magplay sa lexing at ang media na gamit ko is prodata cdr na ok naman pag mp3,napeplay nya using prodata.

baka naman OGM or MKV gamit mong container... use AVI container... ESS Vibrato II and Mediatek 1389 chipset not supported this type of container...
Mediatek 1389 support the DivX 6.0 Media File... which is ".divx" ang extension... pero di pa rin nababasa ang MENU at CHAPTER... only AUDIO at SUBTITLES lang...
Lexing and PROMAC can read the new DivX 6.0 Media File... pero rename nyo yung extension to ".avi"... pero di nya kayang basahin ang SUBTITLE... only AUDIO...
hope i help... thanks a lot...

hasty reportage only.
just came from Raon Electronics Center.
if on the bangketa looking towards the center, there is a pasilio in the center. on the right hand side is CHOWKING. on your left hand side are electronics stores. Siguro this is the store in the middle, along quezon ave side mismo. meron mga 7 dvd players patong patong.
meron silang LEXING MPEG4 DVD PLAYER DVD-906 model. this is the same model as what i prviously bought (see start of thread) however, instead of DIVX ang nakasulat, its MPEG4 na. I dont know if both are the same thing using two different words to describe the same feature.
cost is 1,800pesos.
the one without FM radio built in and no DIVX/MPEG4 capability is 1,700pesos.
Parehong hindi ko pa tinawaran.
The saleslady said they have an undisplayed DVD player branded as OPTICS daw and serviceable by any Pioneer service center. Cost is 2,400pesos.
iyon lang for now po.

I bought this DVD Player today.
Sorry to say but I'm pretty disappointed over the quality of the picture.
DVD's have faint vertical lines specially noticable when using the AVIA calibration. Couldn't be my TV because I have an older Lexing and it's okay.
I'm using an S-Video connection too.
Medyo mapili din sa DivX discs. Yung mga luma ayaw! Yung mga bago okay lang.
hmph!
Stall #21, here I come!
-
one more thing... I've just verified this...
my unit WON"T PLAY DIVX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
pareho tayo,lahat na ng codec from divx 4,5 to 6 ayaw,ok na din yung media,kasi pag mp3,vcd ok naman... >:(

I went to Raon Shopping Mall stall #22 and asked for the Lexing 099 yesterday but was out of stock. Went instead to stall #11. Mang Pat, the stall owner informed that the 099 model has bugs (L/R function for Karaoke dvds does not work).
He offered me the Lexing 009 which is the upgraded version DAW of the 099. To make the story short, all the dvd's I brought played (divx, xvid, p-disks, r1/r3, pal) including p-disks that could not play in my LG9934N.
The unit came with 300 songs karaoke dvd, games w/ controllers for 2, 6 months warranty all for P2,200 pesos.
Will burn-in test this wkend. ;) :D :P

Saw some Lexing players for sale at Greenhills, but I don't think they are the models discussed in this thread--the players are small and are narrow and long (like the "portrait" orientation for paper on a printer). However, beside the small "DVD" print on the front panel, a "DiVX" can be clearly seen beside it. It's selling for P 2,000 and looks good--any feedback on these players?
-
@Bluebeard
Does the included karaoke DVD's the one sold in VCDs compiled into one? Or much like the MiDis?

The karaoke files are MP4 files with .avi extension.
You select like directories with MP3 files.

Hi Bluebeard!
Will wait for your review... and sana ma-post mo yung pics of the model that you have. Sometimes knowing only the Model No. can be very confusing. Thanks in advance!

hi,
i just bought a LEXING DVD-099 allegedly can read DIVX discs.
Cost is 2,000pesos. Bought at a store located across the underpass of quiapo. Katabi nitong store is one selling local handicrafts, the other side is selling French Fries uncooked.
Last unit displayed ang binili ko kasi walang ibang stock.
Actually, nalilito pa ako sa mga DIVX na yan. Ewan ko but included in the player is a free MP4 Disc Karaoke, containing around a hundred songs. IS MP4 ALSO KNOWN AS DIVX? Parang hindi di ba?
Anyway this model does NOT have radio built in. Aside from that, merong free game pad, ewan ko bakit. Siguro merong built in games, that I have yet to find out.
This model is exactly the same as model 906 except that wala siyang antenna sa likod at wala ring switch for radio kasi nga, ang model 099 walang built in radio.
Wala akong DIVX disc to try so i cannot confirm. Pero sabi ng store, sure daw, kasi they also have other models of Lexing na although nakatatak DIVX eh sa tutuo lang daw, it cannot read DIVX discs. Example of such models are the 1800 and 5168. Nakamark talagang DIVX pero accdg to them it cannot read DIVX, and its cheaper at 1,600-1,700 pesos only (w/out and w/radio built in ang 100pesos difference).
(Note you can see pictures of how model 906 looks like at www.fotki.com/click4u. The model 099 physically is THE SAME as model 906, nawala lang ang antenna and radio functions).
I did not go to Raon Electronics mall anymore, tinatamad na maglakad. I hope the model 099 i got at 2,000pesos was reasonably priced.
Three months in house waranty.
Sincerely,
bestbuy

Sirs, newbie here...
May mall (o Western o Abenson etc...) ba na mabibilhan ng LEXING, gusto ko kasi yung mga extended warranty nila?
Mahaba ba buhay ng Lexing......
Thanks....
-
wala akong nakikitang "legitimate" malls carrying Lexing.
the generic brand i have seen being sold that is NOT region-code locked is Nextbase, Ganz Klanz-something hehehehe... only.
I tink the importer of Lexing are chinese merchants with no specific repair service centers. that is why even if they offered their item to "legit" appliance stores, the stores might not be interested to carry them.
the only legit store i can think of who is very aggressive in selling ANYTHING under the sun, with seemingly no fear to provide after sales service even if i doubt they can, is MAKRO and PRICE SMART and those warehouse style stores who sell ULTRA GENERIC BRANDS, NEVER HEARD OF and once sold out, does not seem to resurface again, forever.
-
There is a legitimate store carrying the Lexing brand, althought not all models w/c are sold in Raon.
The is Dee Hwa Liong Electronics Equip. Corp (DeeCo). A branch can be found in Metropolis Mall, alabang

The karaoke files are MP4 files with .avi extension.
You select like directories with MP3 files.
I recently got one for 2.1K with free DVD-9 with 500 karaoke songs and CD with NES games, two-week replacement and 1 year warranty on parts and labor. I tried to back-up the karaoke to a DVD-R and was able to fit 300+ songs, my Philips 5500S was able to read/play them. Now, I want to convert my karaoke songs to MP4/DivX and burn them to DVD-Rs ;D. I tried DivX converter but the size was about 100+ MB compared to the file size of the ones from the DVD that came with the unit of about 15+ MB per song. Anybody who can reccommend a tool to do this?
thanks.
-
question: are the songs in the MP4 karaoke, really karaoke sing along-able. according to a store in harrisson plaza, it only plays the karaoke, but the sound of the voice is persistently present and cannot be removed? and it's selling at P2200. any truth to this?
and how does this compare to the nextbase 656 considering that this is half its price?
thanks
-
The Voice (+1) can be removed using the L/R function keys. Btw, I was informed by the storeowner, but not verified, that there is a bug regarding the L/R keys in the 906 model but was fixed in the 099 and 009 models.

so 099 can read the db-subbed naruto eps? i'm just curious; i have a generic player that plays avi files as well but it can't play some files - like the db-subbed naruto eps. can the codecs of generic players like lexing be upgraded - maybe through their service center?

that's odd... while i was out shopping for a divx player, i tried playing the dattebayo fansubbed naruto episodes on the nextbase (a generic player) and they played fine. i think dattebayo fansubs uses the xvid codec.
-
The unit came with 300 songs karaoke dvd
sorry for the OT post pero matagal na po kase ako naghahanap nito e.
meron po bang mabibilhan ng ganitong dvd dun sa pinagbilhan n'yo ng player? i mean, pwede po bang bumili ng hiwalay na yung karaoke dvd lang?
kase sa mga music stores, kahit dvd karaoke disks, at most 20 songs lang laman e.

i see; i limited my choices to the 2k and below generic players price range (lexing, orange, hug etc) since i figured they're all generics why pay 2k more lol. so nextbase plays db subs - will check this one thanks!

Its been 6 months since my last past (when i first bought my Lexing 906) :)
dumalaw lang uli ako ngayon bec nababadtrip ako, im waiting for an hour to re-encode a TV ep I dl from the net...XVID format kasi so it wont play :( "unsupported format" daw, but you can hear the audio... haaaay, ang bagal pa naman mag encode ng files! Real time or worse pa yata (if the movie is 1 hour long, it will take 1 hour to encode it.. siguro plus/minus 10 minutes..)
Aside from that, i frequently get many unplayable dvds.. (pag binili ko testing ok, pero ayaw sa lexing 906..) lalo na yung mga many-in-1.. hehe Pero kahit papaano, mahal ko pa rin naman unit ko, marami pa rin naman syang silbi.. :)
Sayang, Dec 2005 lang ba lumabas itong lexing 099? Oct 05 ko kasi binili Lexing 906 ko e.. ciguro after 1 more year, may bago na namang model, dapat naman ciguro e paastig ng paastig ang mga model nila no? so eventually we will have a super unit that can play ANYTHING..!
haay yun lang. 45 mins more to go for my re-encoding...!! :(
-
hmm.. mga bro bago lang ako dito eh...
im planning to buy lexing 099 worth 2.1K nga sa may quiapo..
gsto ko lang malaman kung lahat ba ng mp4 kya nya i-play?
and kaya ba nyang i-play ung divx3 codec?
dun sa mga meron na... ano ano po ba ung mga kayang i play and ung indi?
srt, sub, ass and other sub po ba kya din nyang isabay sa movie?
dami tanong noh... hehe! ask lang po... pls... thanks!

1.9K lang ang presyo nang Lexing..yun' kasama ko nakabili sa Cavite may microphone na, may 500 songs pa, dapat marunong kang tumawad sa Raon, binibigay naman nila sa tawad mo eh... ;)
Ang experience ko, basta nag generic ka....stick ka lang sa AVI o' kaya mpg files, kung may makita kang iso eh di mas mabuti, burn mo na lang, DVD na.
Ang Divx3-Divx5 ang bumabasa ay ang Pioneer 686a at Philips 5500s, 'iyun' Pioneer 7.9K(di' ba Spaceman ;) ) , yun' Philips 5.6K , triple at doble ang presyo, iyun' nga lang, may subtitles ang Divx mo, at may universal player ka sa Pioneer, kaya pati SACD at DVD Audio, mapa-pabili ka rin. :P
Sa huli, nasa iyo rin ito, mamili ka lang nang I-download mo, kasi, maski naka Pioneer ka, kung AVI/mpg lang ang na download mo, eh, wala rin, hindi ka rin maka download at burn nang SACD. ::)

LOL... tumfekfek ka dyan. ;)
it's not reasonable to expect an "all around" player for something you paid 2k (or less) for. to get more, you need to pay a little more. ;)
just curious... when you said to stick to AVI and MPG files... did you mean "uncompressed" AVI files? ;) the most reliable player for subtitled divx files is philips... but only if you use "hacked" firware. yung "official" may bugs pa rin. :-\

i know what you mean... even yung expensive na "branded" players may limitations din. (it cannot play divx or xvid files with resolutions na higher than 702 x ***(?) ... or HD resolution... a good example is the naruto movies na xvid).
hopefully with yung "divx ultra certified" players now coming out in the market sa mga branded ... lalabas na rin yung "divx ultra certified" na generic. ;D

Hiya Space, I really don't know, all I do is just look for the ones labelled as avi or mpg, and I'm pretty darn sure that my Xtreme, Pioneer and Philips Divx capable player would play it. ;D
It seemed like the Divx bug bit me hard and after reading your sad/happy experience with the 686a, I was amazed and found myself paying for one last week, afterwhich, I was truly happy with it's SACD/DVD-A capability,that, I started reading the thread on 5500s, and viola, now,I just spend my free hours listening to SACDs and DVDA instead of watching any movies.
Dang' would you believe that I find the video Divx resolution of my Xtreme at par with that of the 686A, and probably better than the 5500s, and BTW, I just don't know if the 5500s had fixed it's bugs, since, the subtitles are easily accesible and can be seen well, when viewed on the Samsung WS and Philips WSRPTV. Of course you know that the 686a is also capable.
BTW, maybe we should start our Divx community. ;)

thanks. ganun ba ako ka-convincing?? LOL.
i agree... if you have an HT set-up and love music. listening to SACD and DVD-A is quite an enjoyable experience. ;)
wow! Xtreme is at par with pioneer?? that is so cool. i'm actually looking into getting a generic divx player sometime soon kasi medyo nawo-workout yung 686a namin dito and kailangan may kasama na siya to lessen the burden. LOL. Xtreme is now definitely on the top of my list. just wondering tho... may issues ba with "packed bitrates" yung Xtreme? (not that it matters a lot... i usually "unpack" my files anyway. lol)
when i mentioned about subtitles... the pioneer still has trouble working with a few "*.srt" files. minsan, it doesn't work. one very good example is the 2-disc download of the movie GOAL!. it works sa disc 2... but not on disc 1. (ah ako pa naman i like to "merge" 2 files into one using vobsubMOD.) the movie has some portions in spanish, so the subs are VERY important. to make a long story short... using the SRT file i got. i "burned in" the subs just for the spanish parts while re-encoding the file in xvid. :P if the pioneer can play 80% of the Subtitle files out there... the philips can probably play 95-99% of them. ;D (my guess is... this is more a file issue than a subtitle one ... i tried converting the Subrip into SSA, Sub and MicorDVD... and they still wouldn't appear.)
same with the naruto movies released by DB ... i had to downgrade the resolution para it would play on the pioneer. :P
i agree... the divx community is GROWING! maybe its time we formalized it na. ;D

Spaceman,
I got the SD-166 model, it's 2.1K avoid the Xtreme models that sells fro 1.7 to 1.9K that has incorporated games, I believe they used a different chipset.

i just sold my xtreme 006 ayaw iplay yung burned naruto series ko and masyadong pihikan sa divx and xvid files ano kaya ok ipalit? ???
-
I can suggest the Nextbase NB-656 (priced at P3995.00)kung gusto mo ng hindi mapili sa DivX at Xvid files.
You can also try Doc Alfie's Xtreme Sd-166 (priced at P2,100.00).
-
The Xtreme Sd-166 was able to play the Divx6 of Revelations, the PQ was above par than the Philips 5500s and almost the same as the pricey Pioneer 686A.
Funny thing is this particular model and it's full size counterpart is not featured in the Xtreme website, but seemingly theyr'e the best of the lot. :P

I would recommend xtereme sd-166 , all lexing model don't have 5.1/AC3 capabilities

no... hindi kaya mas mataas (maximum resolution of files is 720 x 576 ... handy info in case you need to resize files.) ... unless of course you buy one of those "divx ultra" certified players... maybe 'yung mga 'yun kaya. be prepared to pay a hefty sum tho... not many models out there and all (so far) are branded. :-\
"divx ultra" players are also supposed to have better support for subtitles and more "dvd-like" features... like menus. read more here: http://www.divx.com/company/partner/ultra.php ;)

oo nga pala pati subtitle files hindi ma recognize nung xtreme 006 ko.
OT:
sa branded players ano ba ok na brand and model?

Philips will release a DVD-Divx Ultra with HDMI at around Php 6K, I forgot the model #, it was supposed to be launched this week, do check out the SM Appliance store at Rockwell. The Philips rep there proudly claimed that they'll have it this week.
-
Salamat po sa Reply...
checheck ko ung SD-116 sa raon...
san nga po pala dun meron nyan?
lahat ng pwede sa lexing pwede din sa kanya diba... ^^,
Doc Alfie: pwede po ba pa post ng pic nung SD-166.. TY!
-

@maco,

gsto ko sana i try.. pero ala ako divx na may subtitle eh..
pwede ba pagsamahin ang avi and srt para gawing divx para ma try ko..
-
@maco,
nasubukan mo na sa divx videos na hiwalay ang subtitle files?
i just learned about subtitle files TODAY, and check agad ako sa pinoydvd kung may discussion about this.. tamang tama pala may nagmention dito 3 days ago lang... :)
may mga na-dodownload akong divx movie na may subtitle files.. i wondered what this was so nag-google ako. Pag sinanma mo pala ang 2 files na ito (SUB and IDX format) sa divx movie, and you play the movie on your pc, it will play with the subtitles on. Galing! kala ko DVD lang meron nito.. now ang gusto ko naman e magplay din sya sa LEXING 906 ko. I burned a DVD w these 3 files.. pero di lumabas ang subs.
Yung question mo ba is for the newer version of Lexing? doon ba pwede? Di pwede sa Lexing 906? Or baka pwede using other formats like SRT. (I understand kasi na may diff formats ang subtitle files, pero puro SUB yung meron ako. I think pwedeng i-convert using a utility pero di ko pa natry)
Can anyone share their experiences regarding this? May ibang thread ba about this?
And if di talaga kaya ng 906 , option ko (short of buying a new player) is to re-encode the divx file incorporating the subtitles.. my advice ba kayo dyan what utility to use? Yung sana di masyadong matagal mag re-encode at di mag-suffer ng degradation (lossless to lossless yata kasi pag ni-reencode ang divx uli?)
Kaya agree ako dyan sa sinabi nyo, someone start a community for us DIVX users!! ;)
-
gsto ko sana i try.. pero ala ako divx na may subtitle eh..
pwede ba pagsamahin ang avi and srt para gawing divx para ma try ko..
maco... may suggestion ako. May mga websites dyan na available for download ang mga subtitle files.
baka merong subtitle for ur divx movie. Kung wala man, just download ANY FILE for testing purposes.
Tapos rename mo lang filename to match your divx movie. Try mo sa PC mo, it should show subtitles.. DI LANG NGA MAGKAMATCH ANG dialogue sa movie.. ;D pero for testing purposes lang naman...
ako try ko siguro if i can find SRT file, try ko uli sa 906.. pero di siguro pwede kasi old model na to. Yung sinasabi nyong bagong lexing baka pwede na
-
this would a whole lot simpler if you guys just use the DIVX TEST CD V.2 to test your player's subtitle capabilities. ;)
LEXing ... the idx-sub is quite tricky... not many players can play them. even the branded ones have trouble with them.
as for subs with the timing wrong... there are a LOT of subtitle editors out there where you can correct the timing. (if it's an SRT file, you can even edit the timing using notepad.)
how to burn permanent subs... i already mentioned in a previous post that you can use VOBSUBMOD for that. it's actually quite easy if you have the substation alpha format of the sub already. ;)
-
na skip sa +r dvd pag matagal na + hindi dd 5.1 pag nag play ako nang dvd
hindi kaya ganito format na Video: XVID 768x432 23.98fps Audio: MPEG Audio Layer 3 48000Hz stereo 128Kbps
ito kaya niya Video: XVID 624x352 23.98fps
Audio: MPEG Audio Layer 3 48000Hz stereo 189Kbps
tapos yung iba audio lang pwede
walng softsub support
na test ko na kc nang play ako ROCH na meron softsub xvid ok play video and audio pero wala sub
mura na sa 1700 kung meron dd 5.1 support
-
mga bro, anong model ng Lexing ang meron ng 5.1 DD/DTS output.. yung last na nabili ko (1 yr ago) kasi naka-series lang yung RCA output nya..
-
Up ko lang?
is there any models of Lexing you can recommend can play divx? all i can see lexing model was the 909 and some 6000 series models. meron bang lexing na may usb interface din. Planning to buy one sana.
-
i did answer my question. its a Lexing DVD/DIvX 8066, has MMC/SmartMedia and USB. I was able to test the LastManStanding DivX6 video from my mobile drive as well my Canon's MMC pictures. There is little problem with split second delay on the sound when playing on the USB but i think i can do something about it. I was playing with the functions and menu and came across with rear and front delays menu but i havent tried it yet. I got the palyer from stall#22 raon shopping center for 2000 comes with a mic, games and 500song karaoke DVD. My HT is now complete on a narrow budget
-
also bought 8066 a while ago, nung i-sinetup ko na, may naririnig akong mahinang humming sound sa audio, using rca line-out pero audible na to kung mataas ang volume. normal lang ba to sa 8066? ok na ok na sana kaya lang i'm worried dun sa humming sound, nawawala yung humming sound pag gumagalaw yung tray like eject o kaya pag binabasa yung cd/dvd, pero pag viewing na nanduon na ulit yung humming sound. sa 006 kasi wala namang humming sound eh
-
wala naman humming sound when palying yun sa akin. better bring you runit back and have replaced kung within a week mo pa biinili.
-

just forgot to turn the mic off, my bad. another question, do this player support any seperate subtitles?
-
up ko lang
-
Hi.. im planning to buy lexing 8066 this month... can you tell me any experiences (pros and cons) that you had with this player? sulit ba talaga for its price...Does it have DTS decoder? your insights will be very much appreciated. Tnx. ;)
-
Hi sirs,
I'm planning to purchase a divx player in the next week. I've read all the previous posts and found out that each player has a downside.
Can someone tell me what is the best player in the market today?
Lexing 8066 or Lexing 099 or Lexing 009 or Xtreme Sd-166 or others?
Preferably the type that can play ANY fansubbed video, from DB to Oyasumi to Ureshi to Megami to Kyuuketsuki to WtW, any.
I've read about lots of models in the previous posts, which really got me confused now on what i should buy.
Please help, thank you.=)
-
On LEXING 8066: I'm having some difficulties with this player. Sometimes, the subtitles on dvd video aren't displaying properly (timing issue). On the usb side, when i use usb harddisk and the video files are fragmented inside the disk, I encounter lags, a/v desynching and worst, the player restarts. so before i watch videos in my usb hdd, i defrag it first in my pc which is really a pain in the ass (time consumption). On the good side of this player, it really never overheats on me. i can leave the player on for almost 15 hrs without problems. (that's when i play files on my hdd, haven't tried on dvd though) Hmm, the longest time i used this player on dvd was about 9hrs and it delivered it's service without any problems.. :)
-

If that is what you want then you should buy a XBOX and have it modded for home theater use. Since it is in reality a PC, it will play ALL fansubbed anime provided you load it with the proper codec.
Fansubbed anime comes in all shapes and sizes - ogg, mkv, h.264, wmv9 - aside from your regular divx. Then again there are divx flavors that is not standalone player friendly. At the current state of affairs, no standalone player, branded or generic, will play all of them.
-
Well, time to buy a new dvd player again... I looked up my very 1st post here and its almost EXACTLY 1 year (3 days to go lang!) ago... wow, what a coincidence. Happy to say, the Lexing 906 I bought (almost) a year ago is still alive and kicking... its an older player I need to put to pasture (I guess i could have it fixed for 500 to 800 pesos, but i'd just add 1,000+ to that and i could get a NEW Divx capable player so...)
Anyway, I'm open to buying a diff brand than Lexing (my 906 is good, but it still encounters discs it cant play that plays on others). However, this 8066 model intrigues me...
Any complete review for this baby? The USB feature is great... and i understand theres SD/MMC slot too? 5.1 surround sound ba?? Someone asked if it can play subtitiles on DivX files.. dont think its been answered. This model is at least close to six months old... at 2,000 price this June? Is it cheaper now? Any newer, better models (Lexing or other brands) ?
Excited na naman ako bumili ng Player just like last year!!! ;D
One question pala: Sometimes I burn discs on my DVD writer sa PC.. burns successfully, reads and plays in the PC... but error or wont read at all sa Lexing... sometimes I think its the media i use ( -R is better than +R). Question is, I wonder if depende rin sa player? If my PC can read it, some players out there should be able to play it also right? Hopefully this new 8066 (or some other model) is not as picky...
-

Question pala.. can this play more types of Divx? IN my current Lexing 906, it can play maybe 70% of the AVI-Divx files i download.. the rest ayaw mag play or audio only.. because of newer codecs i guess (xvid, etc). Have to re-encode pa, hassle! Hopefully this newer model can play more if not all types of AVI/Divx files now...?
Ok yan ah, daming freebies (ako Karaoke VCD lang libre last time.. mas ok yang 500songs DVD with free mic pa.. :) ). Yung games na Free, yan yung standard na lumang games no? Sana naman mas bago.. hehe... ;D Im thunking siguro 10 years from now, ang free games na sa mga DVD (or Blu-ray players siguro by that time ;D ) is mga PS1 games.. hehe.. matutuwa tayong mga oldies pero mga anak natin e macocornihan... ;D
-
Just to give updates...
went to raon yesterday.. Lexing 8066 still available, for 2,000. (di man lang bumaba ng price, same price since June!!! In fact, i even saw my old model Lexing 906 bough last year at 1,700 now selling at 1,900!! tumaas pa!! who in their right minds would buy this, e merong cheaper and newer units... may usb pa)
theres a new model , LEXING 8065. You would think this is an older model since its 1 digit lower than 8066.. but its actually the latest model (go figure!!) P 1,500 lang sya, you can negotiate 1,450 siguro lowest price.. comes with 1,000 videoke songs in 1 DVD9, games w/ pads, and a USB port. The catch is, the USB port is at the back, not in front. Its main difference with the older 8066 model is, 8066 has both USB and SD/MMC Slot, and theyre at the front, not back.
Anyway, i saw a diff brand i liked, so i bought that instead. Kingsonic for 1500, with usb and sd card in front. Looks great so far.. it managed to play some discs that my Lexing 906 cant...

maybe you got some lemons there. before when i bought my 906, it cannot play some of my discs so i returned the unit and got it replaced with the same model. just as i thought, its only a calibration problem. it can now play almost 93% of my entire collection here. i even used the cheapest media available and it still plays flawlessly

mga lexing 906 user. sino na nkapg-play ng divx files from external hard disk?
-
mga lexing 906 user. sino na nkapg-play ng divx files from external hard disk?
when playing w/ external hdd, the problem is that the file must be defragmented.. it can play fragmented files but there's a catch, you can't use the 'goto/time' button, pausing and playing the movie have huge delays in player response, and the most painful is you can't ff/rew correctly. you'll end up skipping the file or worse, resetting the player which means the power in the enclosure (if 3.5hdd enclosures no problem but if for 2.5...) will be tripped and there will be a huge chance of hdd head crash.. very scary nightmare :)
-
how about the 9045 model?
any reviews for this...
and where can i get a complete specs?

OT: sir, paano yong ginagawa nyong re-encode? i have other downloaded divx movies na di rin ma-play sometimes...
-
ang daming models ng players ang lexing ngayon...
what's the best out there that's divx capable?
kung pata asan ng numero 9075.
-
hi jus bought a laxing dvdplayer model 905 ata to, medyo compact & small lng size nya pero happy nako. my old player have problems with its carousel, tinatamad pako pagawa.
ask ko narin if anyone have an idea how much cost pag carousel sira? its a pioneer brand
-
OT: sir, paano yong ginagawa nyong re-encode? i have other downloaded divx movies na di rin ma-play sometimes...
use multi-format converting software. i was able to download Magic Video Converter with serial from a torrent site. good/simple interface and capable of converting popular formats today.
-
my neighbor's Lexing plays p dvds but has trouble playing Original discs, it's really weird but has anyone else experienced this?
I hope it's an isolated case, was thinking of getting one pa naman and siyempre I wanted it to play everything.
-
Wow...now that's what they call Partisan Politics even with electronics. ;D
Seriously...check out region status. ;)
Other generic players are now reportedly region locked to R6(China). :'(
-
Hi Alfie,
It's really weird ;D, though I don't think its with the region status because it can read the menu from an original DVD but once I press play it hangs. The longest original dvd I was able to play was my son's Spiderman 2, it runs for approx 3 minutes then it starts skipping then the dreadful hang. ;D Incidentally, I also have a p'd copy of the same movie and it plays 'til the end credits, fast forwarding and chapter select has no problems. I don't know which to fix... Daym! ;D ;D ;D
It plays dvdr's flawlessly too but again has trouble with those p'd bd discs. I hope there is just something wrong with the unit itself and that it's isolated to this one.
-
Ok got a Coby player like that, but it plays Original DVDs but not the single layered Quiapos, and skips the Bluray Fakes.
I bought it back to the store in Trinoma, and they said it's a lens problem so they had it refined or fine tuned? but guess what after 2 months it's the same banana...so I let it go and bought the 895Pesos Ace, which is working fine for the past 6 weeks. ;)

ACE? It's a generic brand right? Can;t remember if saw those in Raon eh...
Does it play everything you put into it? :D
-
Yup-yup.
Even on the USB, except of course...MKV/OGM & other High Def files.
Sobrang swerte naman...895 pesos only...he-he. ;)
Pero pang Quiapo talaga....ingat na-lang sa lemon. ;)

Thanks Alfie, problem solved agad - buy a new generic dvd player na lang... ;D ;D ;D

hmmm i bought a lexing dvd 6015 player a few months back... (might be half a year now, i guess)
see, here's my problem...
one day, lexing wont play anything... so i will watch my dvds on my hdtv.. after a while (like 3 days tops) my lexing will play again and it's perfectly fine..then after a few dvd marathons again, it wont play again... i wont use it for a couple of days, then it's perfectly fine, until, boom. it happened again...
now, suddenly, my hdtv got this kind of behavior, only worst, if my lexing will play for a few days (or longer times) my hdtv will suddenly hung while im watching my dvds, then it will go blank...
im getting confused and all..
my hdtv is almost 3 years old... my lexing is almost half a year old.
is this normal? what should i do? what's wrong?
this "sickness" seems to mature, as now, my lexing remote control wont function anymore (it has brand new batteries) the player wont recognize the remote's function... so i bought a new remote, the player would only recognize the lower portions of the remote... the rest, and the most important (like the ntsc and pal option) wont read. i cant watch my splash dvd since then
p.s.
most of my dvd's are original, my only pirated dvds are my dvd series'. could this be a factor?
HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME OUT!
IM ACTUALLY PLANNING TO BUY A NEW BRANDED DVD PLAYER... i dont even know if it's worth it, especially if i can fix this glitch... cause im planning to buy a new tv instead... so because of this i'll just use the money to buy a original/branded dvd....
since we are in the topic... what is the best original brand dvd?

Hi. I have the older model the DVD-DIVX 905, it may have the same way to activate the game mode. How do you get to the game mode? Does anyone have the manual for the 906 and 905?
Thank you. God bless, Proverbs 31
