It really plays anything as it will also upscale an older 460i movie and play it as 1080i. Not only that but I can plug my large external hard drive into the USB and pull up my movie selection and watch any number of the movies from this drive. I only wish it had a wi-fi lan built into it so I could update my hard drive from my PC without moving the portable drive but not a real big issue. It's a nice media device but a firmware to help organize the hard drive would be a nice touch and still not too late to provide a download for each storage disk working with the desktop software to create a nice movie/media catalog. If other non media files are on the hard drive it takes a long time to find the movie files. To correct this, I keep the drive clean by only putting movies on it and organize them manually. Directions indicate a button on the remote for USB but it's not there, the player has to do all the work to find what's on the hard drive.Read full review
WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW...Did I say WOW. Simply put, it plays everything I throw at it. Retail movies and Data discs! What else do you need to know? whatever media you have, it will play. Not to mention the USB port on the front? Drag drop and play, no need to burn unless I'm keeping it for my library, I can now make dvd data discs with 5 movies on one disc and watch on my TV instead of my computer!

The best thing about this DVD player is that it has the USB port. I am able to plug my external hard drive (2.5") in and play video files, music files, and picture files from there. It is pretty much convenient when you have movie files on your computer and you don't want to burn it on DVDs. It saves you money from buying new DVDs to burn your movies. I rated good because the speed of starting the movie files and reading picture files is average. To start up a movie file, it takes some 10 seconds or so. Flipping through pictures takes a few seconds for it to load. My final thought is that I do not regret buying this item because it does the job of playing my movie files from my external hard drive for a very good price.
It has all the connections that I wanted. The remote is easy to use. It is very thin and a little wide. The display has to be read from pretty much straight on, but works great. The programing and picture are great. I would recommend this player to a friend.
I freaking love this player! Over the last year, I've purchased and convinced friends and family to purchase almost a dozen of these divx/dvd players. The kewlest thing about this unit is that you can play DIVX files (compressed videos) which can be downloaded from torrent sites. My wife and I virtually don't watch TV anymore - I download a whole season of whatever we want to see (like criminal minds) and then I copy episodes to a flash drive or portable hard drive and we watch them on either big screen (I bought 2 of these units for myself... one for the living room and the other for the bedroom). And if we want to see something that just showed tonight, within 30 minutes, it will be uploaded to a torrent website for download. This just simplifies our lives. Rather than spending tons of money to buy TV series on DVD, we download them and watch them at our leisure. It's also cut way down on our DVD movie spending!!I t's a great unit and I will be very disappointed the day one of them dies... which I'm hoping isn't for a long time. I'd also mention that the unit upconverts to 1080P and looks terrific for it's price. I'm very happy with this DVP5992 which is why I am purchasing another one here at EBAY. Costco ran out and my wife's boss would like me to set them up, as everyone else in the office has one now. :)Read full review
