Sub £20 DVD players - current offers (merged)

Hello, I have a number of Divx films on my computer. How do I then put these on a DVD to use in this player and watch on my TV ? - can I use Nero to do this ?

hope im allowed to say this here: a little program called winAVI video convertor allows you to convert divx/xvid to dvd (creates the files&folders that you can then burn in Nero). The disc will play in any dvd player that supports writable dvds (most).
Sure theres lots of other good software that will do it just as well this is just the one i use.

Any with component out?

I bought a compac DVD player in CO-OP in Thame 2 weeks ago for 19.99, has progressive scan and component out! Lots of commands on the remote including volume which is a bonus.

Sorry a bit more detail - Compacks Slimline DVD8005 DVD Player I've tested it with DVD-RW so far

Compacks DVD8005 also on eBuyer for £19.70 (plus postage) - Google searches do indicate it is progressive scan and from images on eBuyer website it also looks like it's component out. Seems a good deal if you can't find a Co-Op

sorry for being a bit of a dope but what does progressive scan mean
