I'll be impressed when they come out with lossless video compression.

Already done, Huffyuv.

H.264 has done it, at a much better size then Huffyuv

H.264 isn't lossless AFAIK.

What few reports I've gotten indicated that, for example, the Philips "Miracle" 642 can't handle DivX 6.0. ..

Your information source is WRONG.

I have the Philips DVD642 and here's my findings (so far) with Divx6:
- Files encoded to divx6, using the "Home Theatre" template (having the new .divx extension) plays 100% fine
- The special new menu/option enabled divx files still play 100% fine...But the player doesn't know how to handle the menuing so it goes directly into playing the movie

So, even though it can't read the new menuing/options of DivX6, it can play the files fine.

Edit: Detail update, I have the DVP642/37 with Firmware 1109
