    Thanks, #3. I didn't feel like typing all of that out so I made my reply short and very sweet.

    #1,

    the DVP5992 has a USB2.0 front panel port
    the DVP5982 has a USB1.1 front panel port

    everything else is the same.

    A true home media server is better but big servers are noisy and new ones are expensive. Still it's the best way to get HD output. I went with an older Dell laptop with S-video output. It's SD but works well for my purposes. It's also nice and quiet.

    My previous purchase from Philips Outlet for refurbished item was a disaster. The item arrived unpackaged, without documentation, and it basically broke within two weeks. I returned it and never dare to purchase from Philips Outlet ever since. Just share with you guys.

    #1, I am having a bad day as usual so I wish ill upon you. Once again the treatment for my erectile dysfunction failed miserably. My damn doctor must be a liberal. Oh well, I'll just blame it on the the illegal immigrants. Phag.

    Generally, this is a good player. Upconversion (up to 1080p) is noticeably better than standard definition. I bought mine refurbished. Slight problem with upconverting, that when on 1080p mode with my Vizio LCD, half of the time I have to turn off the DVD player and turn it back on to get it to send the right signal to the TV (pretty sure this is DVD player fault and not TV). Yesterday, the sound stopped working (both on DVDs and Divx files), but when I updated the firmware it was A-ok once again and hopefully that fixed the other mentioned problem. Being able to put Divx files on a flash drive, plug the flash drive into the unit, and select and play them (w/o burning cds). It can play really high definition divx w/ very little slow down. Overall would recommend.

    looks like bacon/Billtang is still conversing with himself. Seriously, how many losers are out there that would make 6000+ posts on a deal site?

    #9, your interpretation of me is very convincing, however I don't think I ever really mention liberals or illegal aliens in my posts. If I have, then it has been on rare occasion. So, in the future, please refrain from using those words in your posts. If you can't grant me that wish, then you can at least stop the use of "libtard" because that is about the gheyest word I've ever heard in my life. Continue the good use of "baconeer" and "phag" though.

    Also, my sincerest apologies to my mom for having to put up with your erectile dysfunction. I'm sure she's getting it good from the mailman, though. What's his name again? Oh, right, it's "bacon."
