Full size 420 mm width Review: Wow, amazing picture... goofy on-screen menu, oddly-shaped remote. - The set-up: This DVD player is hooked up to a Syntax Olevia LT32HVM 32" HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV by an HDMI-to-DVI cable and coax (for digital audio to my Sony 5.1) It is controlled by a Logitech Harmony 688 Universal Remote Control (Black) . I was a little worried that up-conversion would not work being that my TV does not have HDMI and that converting it to DVI would negate the conversion. Well, if it does, I don't notice. The picture I see -- after fiddling with the "setup" menu for the DVD player -- is amazing. This unit replaced my Philips DVP642, and I can really see the difference in the video. I am running my up-conversion at 1080i, with the color settings at "standard." The remote is a bit on the odd side. I know that all the remotes look the same and maybe Philips wanted to be different, but what's with the white top and wedge-like feel? It looks as though it belongs with a different unit altogether. The buttons are a bit slower to respond than my DVP642, but not by much. Using this with my Logitech Harmony 688: I noticed that the new DVD player plugged in and worked in place of my old one without any changes having to be made to the 688. Sweet! One less hassle. It plays Taiyo Yuden DVD-R (8x) and Verbatim DVD+R DL discs just fine. It also remembers where you left off from the last movie. I put in a disc, played it, took it out, played another and then put the first disc back in and it remembered where I left off. You also have the on-screen option (about 3 seconds) to start from the begining. The on-screen menu for 'setup' is huge, blocky and reminds me of old, old Windows programs. Plus, the color management option is completely useless since you cannot see the screen while you change the options becuase the menu blocks the whole screen. You have to make changes on your TV or keep going back and forth between the screen and menu. Lame. But you do get lots of options on the menu, if you are into fine-tuning the DVD player's video and audio and TV setup. Hooked up the HDMI-to-DVI cable and coax audio and both audio and video worked right out of the box -- didn't need to play with the setup menu. Some DVD players seem to need a bit of setup menu fiddling for certain configurations. I did notice that if I chose the wrong resolution (i.e. 1080p) for my TV, it turned the screen blue and basically locked me out of seeing anything. I had to turn the unit off and back on in order for it to reset. My player came with firmware 37.07.32.40, and when I updated it to 37.07.32.43 it fixed the "set losing resolution setting upon standby." See Philips website for details on upgrading your player. You'll need a CD-R to get the 2 files to the DVD player. Overall, it is an amazing DVD player. Hero and LoTR look amazing. Now I just need an HDMI TV. Review: great dvd player if you don't want to spend the huge amount for HDdvd/bluray - I bought this dvd player to replace my dvp-642 I was a little scared at first when i switched my hdtv's input to hdmi and the audio stuttered and a green screen came on, but that is the nature of the digital signal and its just checking itself when first switched on. some people say that they don't like the remote control, however I do. This remote is similar in layout compared to my previous philips dvd player. pros: inexpensive for what you get it will upscale to 1080p (whether or not you notice it is up to you) sleek piano black finish with mirrors usb input works great and is pretty quick, it's a poorman's media center remote control fits well in my hand and has easy to use buttons usb function will play xvids! HDMI output, need i say more? cons: my HDTV's built in upscaler is better or equal to the one in this dvd player, so no improvement was noticed with the upscaling function you need to dig in a menu to turn on HDMI audio it will not output HDMI audio and coaxial audio at the same time philips always seems to make the dvd players too small and a little too wide. it is wider than my series 2 tivo, so the dvd player sits underneath it, however it is not long enough in the back. thats just a nitpick though it does take a little while to startup, it's especially annoying when you just need to eject the dvd and have to wait about 10 seconds before anything happens. the buttons on the remote are white and semi-translucent, making me think that they would light up or glow, but they don't i wish the usb input was also available on the back, it looks bad to have an external drive's cord hanging sticking out of the front all of the time keep in mind that the usb function will not play hd content or .tivo files ## Features - 1080p Upscaling, increases the picture resolution - DivX, plays Mpeg4 video downloads from PC - Progressive Scan - Plays DVD, DVD-R/+R, CD, CD-R-RW, MP3/WMA, Jepg picture CD - Full size 420 mm chassis ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000N254LU | | Analog Video Format | NTSC | | Audio Output Mode | Stereo, Dolby Digital and other multi-channel audio output modes | | Best Sellers Rank | #650,424 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #405 in DVD Players | | Brand | PHILIPS | | Built-In Media | 2 x AAA Batteries, Audio/Video cable, Quick start guide, Remote Control, User Manual, Product Registration Card, Warranty Leaflet | | Color | black | | Compatible Devices | Devices with HDMI input, and devices that play DVD and/or CD formats | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Controller Type | Remote Control | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 305 Reviews | | File Format | MP4, JPEG, DivX | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00609585129504, 06931994533332 | | Item Weight | 5.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Philips | | Media Type | CD, DVD | | Mfr Part Number | DVP5982/37 | | Model Name | Philips DVP5982 1080p Upscaling DVD Player | | Model Number | DVP5982/37 | | Number of Channels | 2 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Progressive Scan | | Special Feature | Progressive Scan | | Supported Audio Format | CD, MP3-CD, MP3-DVD, CD-R/CD-RW, WMA-CD, Audio CD, Dolby Digital, MP3, PCM, WMA | | Surround Sound Channel Configuration | 5.1 | | Total Number of HDMI Ports | 1 | | UPC | 609585129504 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Video Encoding | MPEG1 or MPEG2 | | Video Output Resolution | 1080p | | Warranty Description | 90 days warranty | | Write Speed | < 12 W | ## Product Details - **Audio Output Mode:** Stereo, Dolby Digital and other multi-channel audio output modes - **Brand:** PHILIPS - **Color:** black - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Item Weight:** 5.2 Pounds - **Media Type:** CD, DVD - **Model Name:** Philips DVP5982 1080p Upscaling DVD Player - **Special Feature:** Progressive Scan - **Supported Audio Format:** CD, MP3-CD, MP3-DVD, CD-R/CD-RW, WMA-CD, Audio CD, Dolby Digital, MP3, PCM, WMA ## Images ![Philips DVP5982 1080p Upscaling DVD Player - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41pJSan-GIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow, amazing picture... goofy on-screen menu, oddly-shaped remote. *by T***N on December 21, 2007* The set-up: This DVD player is hooked up to a Syntax Olevia LT32HVM 32" HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV by an HDMI-to-DVI cable and coax (for digital audio to my Sony 5.1) It is controlled by a Logitech Harmony 688 Universal Remote Control (Black) .

So far, I am not all that impressed. I had an older model progressive scan DVD player hooked to my TV before, and to be honest, I don't notice any difference in picture quality. The picture looks nice now, but it looked just as nice before in my opinion. One thing that really annoys me about this unit is the loading tray. It takes quite awhile for it to open when you push the button, so much so that you end up pushing it twice and then it "loads" instead of opens before you realize that you shouldn't have pushed it again. I am not a super impatient person, but it just seems to have quite a delay on it. And as other reviewers have said, it is very flimsy. So flimsy in fact that I actually made the mistake of tipping the DVD player back and my DVD fell out of the tray and INTO THE UNIT!! I had to take apart the unit to get my DVD out. That was annoying. The remote control is very cheap feeling as well and has limited choices. And why is it gray when the unit is black?? THe unit does look sleek, has worked fine and I got it at a good price so overall I am happy with it, just not impressed. ## Frequently Bought Together - Philips DVP5982 1080p Upscaling DVD Player - MEGATEK Region-Free DVD Player for TV with HDMI, CD Player for Home, Plays All Regions and Formats, USB Port, Durable Metal Casing, Remote, HDMI and RCA Cables Included - DVD Players for TV with HDMI, DVD Players That Play All Regions, Simple DVD Player for Elderly, CD Player for Home Stereo System, Included HDMI and RCA Cable --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hu/products/47705857-philips-dvp5982-1080p-upscaling-dvd-player](https://www.desertcart.hu/products/47705857-philips-dvp5982-1080p-upscaling-dvd-player) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hungary* *Store origin: HU* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
