    buy a new or 2nd hand xbox and mod it and then put xbox media center on it, best cheap xvid player you can get!

    Check the console modding section on how to mod one if your interested

    search youtube for videos on it

    Cheers for the suggestion but I really don't wanna go modding an Xbox. Anybody else see any cheap and cheerful DivX players about?

    You won't believe it but since posing I bought that €30 Biostek player.
    It arrived and looks amazing, stuck a disc in and it plays everything BUT! the remote wasn't working when I got it.
    Tried different batteries....nothing.
    This sucks coz all the functions are on the remote and all you can do from the unit is play, pause, stop and eject.
    Contacted pixmania and they mailed me a label to put on the box for returning.
    I then realised how much it'll cost me to post it to where their returns centre is (France).....€30!
    Madness.
