Philips DVP642 is the model, and we use them as region free players in almost every projection booth on campus.
It also plays DIVX and other .avi files with a variable, but acceptable success rate. I download fansubbed anime, and on more than one occasion I've been able to fit an entire series (anywhere from 13-26 episodes) onto one DVD+R without recompressing anything.
They're under $50 on Amazon
And I found the region code adjustment right in the discussion forums on Amazon:
"1. Turn on the player.
2. Open the tray.
3. Press the following sequence on the remote:
7 8 9 OK 0
4. The number 0 will appear on the lower left side of your screen.
5. Your player is now region free! Put in a DVD and enjoy! :)
NOTE: The 0 in the sequence above represents the region code. 0 = region free. If you want to change your player to just a specific region code, replace the 0 with the region number you want.
worked for me immediately, fast and simple. good luck!"
I really like this player and recommend it to people again and again.
