Re: Best DVD player with Upscaling

I found from the technical specs that Philips, Pioneer having 12bit, 108Mhz whereas Samsung - 14bit, 108Mhz.

How does this compare the performance of the players?

Re: Best DVD player with Upscaling

Guys! I have atlast purchased Philips DVP5986 after considering my budget and future upgrades. Till the last minute Samsung 1080PK (pebble model was available - but not keen though specs match) was there top in my lists but unfortunately the dealers and even the company owned showrooms also didn't have stock and told delivery of 15 days. Since Iam already a Philips DVD user and extremely happy with its performance, made my mind to go in for it. Thanks to all contributors who have helped me in deciding.

Iam proud to say that this forum has helped me recently in purchasing two consumer products - 1) Samsung series 5 46" and 2) Philips DVP 5986.

I feel this forum as the Godfather in giving advise for any electronics! Thanks once again to all of you!

Re: Best DVD player with Upscaling

Is it right that Philips DVP5986 can't ouput HDMI and Coaxial audio at same time?

Yes, if you enable HDMI output then sound is muted through coaxial.
