been surfing on phillips website,
interesting things so far : LX7500 , LX8500W and LX8300SA
not too many inputs on them though, but support divx and crap.
Been reading the manual of the 8500 and progressive scan is just line doubling, so not bothered if tv does it or dvd player, and you can disable / enable it, so can disable it to let the tv do it automatically.
This shit is hard
Now have to find a more or less decent video player for the missus her old films

Can connect it with the scart to the dvd player maybe ?
