USB, DivX and xVid support (support for max number of formats), player should be region free (I think most players are).

Dude,dont get philips.
I'm talking with the experience of owning one.
I Dont know how they did it but the darn philips DVD player wont play pirated discs.It plays originals like a charm,But it doesnt play pirated ones.
They just play like one frame for second or something.
And in India,pirated DVD's is what we use.
Get anything but a philips.

Regards,
