Thanks, I had missed a previous sale on this Artec DVD recorder, so I jumped on it this time.
A couple of notes:
The player has 5-channel audio out, including (I think) DTS. Useful for a few people.
The player can play MPEG4, meaning that it should be divx/xvid compatible. I'd much rather pay $70 extra for this unit vs. the Phillips player, and get a unit that records as well.
