DVD Player with Card Reader/USB port

musey

Hi

My recordable DVD player has recently given up the fight for life and I'm looking for a replacement. I have had Sky+ installed so I don't need the replacement to be recordable.

A friend has told me that you can now get decent DVD players that have a USB post & SD card reader in them. I would like a player that will play movies in avi & mpeg formats. I have tried to look for a player that has this but have struggled.

I have about £50 to spend. Could any knowledgeable person on here recommend one or suggest a way of searching so that I don't have to trawl through 100s of players that don't have card readers or USB ports.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the recommendations Just to take it a step further, my current set up is LCD TV, Sky+ and DVD player. The DVD player has 2 scart leads going into it (I don't know why, the sky+ guy organised it like that) if I only want to watch DVD via the player is there any need for it to have more than 1 scart socket? If so, how would I organise the scart leads?

Would it be

dvd to TV
Sky to TV

I'm quite take with the Aria and I think it only has 1 scart socket.

Thanks
