Philips DVP3560/F7 DVD Player
Indulge yourself in long hours of viewing high definition video with the DVP3560/F7 DVD Player from Philips. With DivX support, you are able to enjoy DivX encoded videos and movies from the Internet.
Also enjoy the convenience of creating MP3 files right in your living room, without a PC, and even while the CD is playing with one-touch MP3 creation. Moreover, the EasyLink lets you control multiple devices with one remote. So step into a new arena of home entertainment with the DVP3560/F7 DVD Player.
Additionally, with a USB 2.0 port, just plug your USB device and select the movie, music or photo and play the way you want. It is incorporated with HDMI 1080p upscaling that delivers high definition for sharper pictures. Besides this, the Screen Fit feature ensures that the picture fills the whole screen.
- HDMI 1080p Upscales to High Definition for Sharper Pictures
- HDMI 1080p upscaling delivers images that are crystal clear. Movies in standard definition can now be enjoyed in true high definition resolution - ensuring more details and more true-to-life pictures. Progressive Scan (represented by "p" in "1080p") eliminates the line structure prevalent on TV screens, again ensuring relentlessly sharp images. To top it off, HDMI makes a direct digital connection that can carry uncompressed digital HD video as well as digital multichannel audio, without conversions to analog - delivering perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise
- Screen Fit for Optimal Viewing Every Time
- Whatever you're watching, Screen Fit ensures that the picture fills the whole screen. Annoying black bars on the top and bottom are eliminated, without any tedious manual adjustments to make. Simply press the Screen Fit button, choose the format and enjoy your movie in full-screen
- Progressive Scan Component Video for Optimized Image Quality
- Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending a field comprising the odd lines to the screen first, followed by the field with the even lines, both fields are written at one time. A full image is created instantaneously, using the maximum resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives a sharper picture with no line structure
- DivX Ultra Certified for Enhanced DivX Video Playback
- With DivX support, you are able to enjoy DivX encoded videos and movies from the Internet, including purchased Hollywood films, in the comfort of your living room. The DivX media format is an MPEG-4 based video compression technology that enables you to save large files like movies, trailers and music videos on media like a CD-R/RW or DVD recordable disc for playback on your DivX Ultra Certified Philips device. DivX Ultra combines DivX playback with great features like integrated subtitles, multiple audio languages, multiple tracks and menus into one convenient file format
- Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Link Plays Video/Music from USB Flash Drive
- The Universal Serial Bus or USB is a protocol standard that is conveniently used to link PCs, peripherals and consumer electronic equipment. Hi-Speed USB devices have a data transfer rate of up to 480 Mbps - up from the 12 Mbps in original USB ones. With Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Link, all you have to do is plug in your USB device, select the movie, music or photo and play away
- One-Touch MP3 Creation Directly from CDs onto USB Sticks
- Convert the contents of your favorite CDs to MP3 files on your Philips product, and store it directly on a thumbdrive or on your portable media player through a USB cable. Enjoy the convenience of creating MP3 files right in your living room, without a PC, and even while the CD is playing
- EasyLink Controls All EasyLink Products with a Single Remote
- EasyLink lets you control multiple devices with one remote. It uses HDMI CEC industry-standard protocol to share functionality between devices through the HDMI cable. With one touch of a button, you can operate all your connected HDMI CEC enabled equipment simultaneously. Functions like standby and play can now be carried out with absolute ease
- My Wallpaper for a Personalized Welcome Screen
- Personalize your DVD player's wallpaper with your favorite photo. My Wallpaper lets you upload your favorite photo to be the wallpaper of your Philips DVD player. My Wallpaper works with most photo formats and you can even change the contrast on your uploaded photo to create unique lighting effects. No more boring generic welcome screen when you turn on your DVD player. My Wallpaper is easy to use and fun for everyone

If you are looking for a unit to play DivX and PAL/NTSC DVDs on your HDTV, this is perhaps your best choice. Philips DVD players are known for good compatibility with wide range of disks. In fact, this is my 4th Philips DVD player supporting DivX. They are so inexpensive that it was not a big deal to buy a new one when the previous got obsolete. The first player purchased about 8 years ago was not designed to support DivX-6 released a few years after, the 2nd and the 3rd I still own (one is also a recorder). This new DVP3560 I had to buy for my new plasma HDTV since it has HDMI up-conversion. In addition I like that it can play files from USB sticks, although unfortunately NTFS seems to be unsupported. Another big advantage is the ability to play PAL DVDs from Europe with internal PAL to NTSC converter, especially since zone protection can be turned off with a few clicks. While a number of Blu-Ray players can play DivX, I could not find any reasonably priced one with the PAL support. Looks like within a year a so after all manufacturers switch from DVD to Blu-Ray players, the PAL option may become hard to find.
The only cons to mention is that the player is quite slow: all commands are executed with considerable delay. This is also characteristic for all other Philips players I have had.

Pros: Player looks good, remote easy to use. On-screen menu section is very good. Plays DVDs and .avi files from either DVD or USB port. I used an 8G thumb drive to test and movies played well.Cons: Player does not support .mkv or .mp4 downloaded movies, either from DVD drive or USB port. USB port will not recognise a 2T external hard drive.I was hoping this would play more formats than it actually does. I did not check for the upconversion feature it has so I can't comment on that. Overall it's still a good buy for [$] if you need a DVD player.

With a few codes entered and it now plays DVDs from all regions. B&H was very helpful in getting me the right player. 4 stars is because all players these days are so cheaply made but this one is better than the rest.

Comments about Philips DVP3560/F7 DVD Player:
On the second day the device was broken not able to read any CD or DVD. I watched two DVDs and that was it. The authorized dealer in Turkey will hopefully fix it without charging me. We will see. I have been told they have to replace something.

Comments about Philips DVP3560/F7 DVD Player:
I use it for reading compressed file burned to DVD as well as stored on USB key. It is ideal to do this in addition to playing standard DVDs.
The standby mode is activated at the factory. If you stay on pause or stop for more than 15 minutes, the unit closes and you lose the reference memory. You will need to search manually for further reading. You can disable this mode.
This device consumes less than 10 W in operation and 0.45 W in standby.
I like it and recommend it.

Comments about Philips DVP3560/F7 DVD Player:
Bought this unit primarily because it appeared to be easily modified ("hacked") to play region 0 DVDs (all regions), and there are some DVDs available in Europe which are not available in the USA. Has anyone tried to get an all-region DVD player here in the States?! The hack worked flawlessly on the first try (follow the directions -- it takes about 1-2 minutes), and I can play regions 1 and 2 -- and probably others (I haven't checked). Remote seems to have a small angle of acceptance, which can be a minor nuisance. A fine unit at a VERY reasonable price! I recommend it, [...]
