Editorial Reviews:

There's steaming heat as high-definition puts its brand on DVD and the winner appears to be Blu-Ray for deliver up to 1080p images (at 24 frames per second) with up to 7.1 channel home-theater sound capabilities. It's the only way to really get the full impact of disc play on your widescreen HDTV. Philips BDP7200 is a second-generation player ready to deliver top video and audio performance to your home-theater system.
Philips BDP7200 touts stunning Full HD 1080p images - the pinnacle of today's high-def visuals. Rich surround sound is heightened with multi-channel audio decoding and digital audio optical outputs. Older DVD libraries will look better than ever as the BD player upscales them to 1080p - a major attraction to consumers who, as they migrate to HDTV sets, find that standard DVDs do not offer the HD content they expect. The BDP7200 supports technology known as BD-Java, which makes even more sophisticated interactive features possible. It boasts Picture in Picture (PiP), graphical enhancements and multi-languages for on-screen display. Multi-layered displays enable users to interact with on-disc content - such as pop-up menus, graphics, director's commentary and bonus material - even as the main movie is playing. It is Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD compliant for up to 7.1-channel audio surround playback.
Further enhancing the player's simplicity, Philips EasyLink allows easy control of connected devices via HDMI-CEC Consumer Electronics Control (CEC1) function with one remote. One button does it all - the TV and A/V components communicate via the same HDMI cables that deliver audio and high-def video.


User Comments about the Philips Blu-ray Disc Player, BDP7200/37

There is nothing worse than settling in for a great movie, and then having the scene freeze 20 - 30 minutes in. The Philips BDP7200 takes around two minutes to load the movie, and often will stop playing in the middle of the movie. This is my first Blu Ray player, and I second "Wewa's" comments. I've got a 50" 1080p tv and the picture is fine, when it works. Eventually, you can get it going again by reloading (2 or 3 times) but it really throws you out of the movie.Avoid it.



Subtitles are not well formatted, compared to LG/Zenith Divx compatible players.Pros:Cheaper than sony BD players up til now. Cons:No ethernet, poor divx quality/compatibility. If you must have a BD player, this may be a nice choice. Will wait for a player that make me happy in all respects. typical BD sluggish remote command response. If I had to buy something now for a HDTV HDMI setup, it would probably be the $39 Philips 5992. Remote is long, heavy, button layout is horrible.5992 has much better remote.Summary:I returned this unit.


Not as good as HD DVD, E500, or Oppo. Too many drawbacks. Especially at this price. Have owned/installed dozens of DVD players.Comparing this one with Sony 301, BX1, Toshiba A2, E500, Philips 5992 and Oppo 970HD.Blu-Ray - ok. Even $39 5992 is superior.Divx - poor resolution, compared to 5992. Especially if you need Divx compatiblity. No Ethernet tho.SD DVD - Upconversion is typically poor, as is most BD players.


Great value and performance.Reviewed using a 50" PDP 1080i using HDMI connection.
