Divx DVD players and HD

gawdblesshim · 12-02-2009, 11:57 AM

I have a sumvision dvd player with usb port. It upscales standard def dvds over HDMI, but i was wondering whether this (or any other model) can play HD divx.

I also have a 360 i could play divx on too, but its a bit noisy.

Ive bought an HD projector but it hasnt arrived yet or i might have a better chance of figuring it out myself!

Cheers

Hi,

99% of upscaling players wont play HD DivX. Although there are a few, at a price, that will.

The 360 will play HD DivX.

Cheers bud! Maybe its just me but when i see something as aesthetically pleasing as that i think its probably rubbish.

Sometimes i dont feel confident unless its a big black brick!

I had one. Picture was very nice. The menu's are very basic, very few options but the player seems to do a good job with the picture.

Sold mine partly down to me not reading the manual properly and the lack of Multi Region hack.

If one became available I would have no qualms about getting another.

They do look like flashy. And have substance.

you didn't read the manual correctly? care to elaborate?

th8is looks to do everything i want it to.... can i play stuff from my external hard drive via usb 2.0?

and is there a region hack available?

I didnt read the small print regarding changing the Video ouput from PAL to NTSC. From what I can see the player does not have an AUTO select feature.

I'm afraid I have not seen any Multi Region players yet. If you do though like I said it's a great looking and very good performance player.

LG DVS450H region code

Found this regarding Multi Region playback but use at your own risk
