QUOTE(AYHJA)Shit...If I were you, I'd buy an S-Video cable and run them shits from your laptop, LoL...DVD players these days are ridiculous...I will be a cable running, .iso making ass before I pay 3 stacks for a DVD player...

I'd do that except my desktop doesn't have an S-Videp port. Otherwise I would be doing that.

WAI, what do you think of this player? It's Philips, plays DivX, and only $79.99.

Shit, I'd buy 2 of those DVD players if we had a BestBuy here in Oz.. lol

See if any other models in the same price range with DivX have Optical Out for audio, otherwise, go get this one!

Yup, it should..! Divx, Xvid, and most of the other popular .avi codecs will play on these devices...I haven't come across too many .avi's that used another form of compression to be honest...I imagine that it would handle it the same way the PS3 does...

Sweet. Thanks Ja. Just wanted to double-check with y'all here. I've never trusted salesman who work the big appliance superstores.
