Philips PET1030 10-inch Portable DVD Player with DivX® Playback

Swivel Screen, flexible view with the Philips 10.2 inch high-resolution LCD display

The PET1030 comes equipped with a 10.2-inch, 16:9 screen, which by portable DVD standards is pretty big, but Philips has built it into a remarkably slim and compact unit. It's also one of the most attractive portables around, sporting a beautiful glossy white finish on the outside and black styling on the inside, with a few sparkly silver bits thrown in for good measure.

Watch your favourite films on holiday or in the car with the PET1030 Portable DVD player from Philips. This player has a 10.2" LCD screen and reads DivX and MP3 files. The screen rotates through 180°, so you can turn the screen around and close the player. The PET1030 portable DVD player also has a USB port and an SD card slot to play other video and music files. For example, you can view your digital photos in slideshow mode while you're listening to your favourite music. The PET1030 Portable DVD player from Philips will provide you with entertainment wherever you are!

In terms of connections, Philips has been extremely generous, fitting the right hand side of the unit with a USB port, an SD/MMC card slot, S-video and composite outputs (for using the PET1030 as a regular DVD player with your TV), composite video input and a coaxial digital audio output for listening to Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 soundtracks through a suitably equipped receiver.

Using either the USB or SD card slot, you can view JPEG photos, play MP3 or WMA music files and watch DivX videos on the device, but it will also read these from CDs or DVDs. The unit accepts a pleasing range of disc types, including DVD+R/+RW, DVD-R/-RW and CD-R/-RW and it also supports DivX VOD, offering the relevant DRM code in the setup menu.

Play DVD/DivX® & MPEG4
With DivX® support, you are able to enjoy DivX® encoded videos in the comfort of your living room. The DivX® media format is an MPEG4-based video compression technology that enables you to save large files like movies, trailers and music videos on media like CD-R/RW, memory cards and DVD-video. DivX® CDs can be played back on selected DVD players, DVD Recorders and Home Theatre Systems.

Zero Bright Dot screen
Enjoy highest-quality images that are free from annoying blank spots on the LCD screen. LCD displays commonly have imperfections, termed as 'bright dots' by the LCD industry. A limited number of bright dots were once considered an inevitable side effect of LCD mass production. With Philips' strict quality control procedures used in our Portable DVD Players, our LCD displays are produced with zero tolerance for bright dots. Select Portable DVD Players come with Philips Zero Bright Dot Policy to guarantee optimal screen quality.

USB 2.0 and SD card slot
Enjoy the high-speed and convenience of accessing more capacity to transfer photos, videos and MP3 music files by using USB 2.0. You can also access more capacity to store photos, videos and MP3 music files on your portable DVD player by inserting an SD card into the built-in SD card slot.
