Good Points

Upscaling and Divx playback, that's about it

Bad Points

Freezes on just about everything, remote extremely slow this renders the program guide almost useless, loses sorted channels and display settings, remote layout is poorly thought out, to get program info you have to press two buttons, no program info on channel banner.

General Comments

This is now my fourth replacement of the Philips DVDR5500, it is by far the worst product I have ever bought, Philips customer care very unhelpful, in fact they basically did not believe me when I told them of all the problems and they were unaware of anyone else experiencing problems.
