Xvid yes
MP4 only Video no audio

^^^ If Fat32 is not working then there are absolutely no chances that NTFS would work. I recommend that the you should use FAT only coz I have such a DVD player (I got it from Vishal mega mart for 1700) and it works with FAT formatted pen drive only

mostly DVD player support USB playback either from Pen drive or ext power HDD..very few has been able to play Divx files from 2.5 "..

I have Philips 5982 but unable to play from 2.5" WD HDD...
overall DVD Player is very good

Hi,
I also bought the same player today. It is not working for Seagate 2.5" 120 GB HDD (USB charged). Can anyone suggest how to make it work for the player ?

It supports FAt only AFAIK and this means you can not mount partitions of any other file system. 120 GB HDD can not be used as you can not have that big disk formatted in FAT.

Windows only restrict more than 30 GB in FAT32...
however their are many utility which can let u format whole 120 GB in FAT32.
I have done that using this tool
*www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm

infact use linux to format the 120 GB in FAT32

Finally I am able to use 120 GB with my Philips player..u guys need a cord like this
Get this cable

hi,
thanks for the suggestion ... now another query, have u guys tried the subtitle files ? i mean, the .srt files, if u put in the same folder, it will show the subtitles, but the sync seems to be lost. Do u have any idea about how to put the subtitle files ?

I have Philips 5982 ( US Model) ; this is one of the best DVD player available now (not available in INDIA); it has USB/HDMI/ HD-UPSCALE plus all the other legacy philips DVD player format support( Divx 6.0 ULTRA included)...one of my friend was coming so i ordered from AMAZON for $55 .. for the price no one can beat this box..
*www.amazon.com/Philips-DVP5982-108...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1199181090&sr=8-1

Problem in above model: No H.264 support and WMV support plus VBR WMA also not supported anyway its a minor thing . Also it outputs NTSC only( again no problem most TV in INDIA supports all NTSC/PAL/SECAM)

Actually I am waiting for my Samsung 32" LCD TV ; so I havent experimented with various format and subs.
AFAIK Philips does support SRT ; cant say for Passion DVD player..

few suggestion try renaming the same as of video file of srt file except extension.

As of now I am able to play DivX from 4GB Pen drive, 120 GB WD passport and 500 GB external HDD( with power) Seagate Drive.

Their is a problem that for 120 GB Drive you need to hook the power to LAptop or PC . I am trying a solution in which I can use MOTO RAZR power adapter (which has USB ) to supplu power to 2.5" HDD Disk.
