    Update! My friends managed to get me onw. Burnt two discs tonight - easy as pie. First one updated the firmware, second one to set it to region ) (i.e. region free)

    It has gobbled up everything I've thrown at it - DivX, AVI, on cards, DVD-RW, DVD+RW - the lot. Doesn't seem fussy about DivX encoding either which is a huge bonus. All in all, very impressed.

    The picture quality through SVideo is ecellent and the audio is crisp and clear.

    Recommended if you can get one.

    Only downside? Discs are a bit noisy.

    Majik, Lidl's website lists XviD among the formats it plays, but it's not in the list on the box. Have you tried that one?

    Because of my domestic arrangements (I'm putting someone up so my facilities are squashed, ouch) it'll take a while for me to get set up... in case you're wondering why I haven't got it up & running yet (which of course you're not ;) ).
