I have the Philips DVP720SA player. Plays DivX and XviD plus can display text subtitles It supports firmware upgrade.

a lot of hypocrisy, indeed. why should one DVD cost over a hundred bucks? make it fifty and it won't be an issue. same for software, i mean really, 300-500 per game? ya gotta be kidding! that said, i do make it a point to purchase legit stuff monthly as i enjoy these industries to no end and believe you have to suck it up and avoid spitting in the well from which you drink. after all, they're not truly forcing us to buy.

never knew that we can watch the torrent files on DVD players so easily??? so just download and burn the files directly to a DVD?

I am a West Wing fan! Also Lost, CSI but only Vegas, and now a new series called Criminal Minds. Check it out if you like CSI. One of my friends back in the U.S. recommended this.

Most of the shows I just buy as a series at the end of the season. out in Malaysia I find them for HK$120 for an entire season. only thing i download is Lost Season 2 and Criminal Minds. The rest I buy in Malaysia or China.

Not exactly... you need a DVD player capable of playing such video formats.. A $300 HKD player most likely won't do that..

Thought your post was looking a little neglected there so here are my thoughts.
I generally watch on my computer. If you want to watch them on your TV's DVD player you need a DVD authoring program. I think there are atleast a couple very well known programs for the Mac one is Roxio Toast.

Thanks DB. Most of my vids are avi format - any suggestions on what to use to convert the format before burning onto DVD?

Or you could get a semi-decent to high-end video card for your PC and just hook it up to your TV

Prison Break<<

KIA is this any good?

I usually DL Lost, Supernatural, Invasion, Conan, Ghost Whisperer, Alias and some old shows.

Best way to play them IMO is with a Media box like TVIX (www.tvix.co.kr). Picked one up in SSP and stuck in a 400G HD. It plays all audio and video files.

How much does one of those Tivix boxes go for? Just wondering if it would be cheaper to build one in one of those mini pc cube things..
