Another year of the Consumer Electronics Show unveils a new crop of portable DVD players with interesting features. Swivel screens, wireless headphones and tablet designs are just a few of the new portable DVD player ideas coming in 2005. Portable DVD players are hot items for those who want to take their DVDs with them on the road. Many manufacturers have put out portable DVD players which offer lots of cool features. Where's My (Bleeping) Sex? Who wants a DVD player that automatically deletes all the juicy bits of movies? One guess. Companies that will, without anyone asking them to, protect us from media evildoers and exposed flesh and scary exploding things and that part in "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" wherein the universe is blessed, for the briefest of moments, with the joy of Kate Winslet's radiant nipples. New Wireless Home Solution Connects the Home Entertainment Center and Home Network Together for the Delivery of Internet and Digital Content. Linksys®, a division of Cisco Systems, Inc., and the leading global manufacturer of broadband, wireless, and networking hardware for home and Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) environments, today announced a new wireless multimedia product called the Linksys DVD Player with Wireless-G Media Link (WMLD54G) which includes a high-end progressive scan DVD player and the capability to wirelessly distribute digital video, music, and pictures stored on a PC to view and play on a TV and/or stereo system. The holidays have come to an end. It seems like just yesterday thanks were being given, wrapping paper was being torn to pieces and you were nursing that New Year's hangover. Through it all, you've probably snapped dozens, hundreds-maybe thousands-of digital pictures. Now you've got a hard drive full of snapshots, all dressed up with no place to go. Some of your family and friends have dial-up accounts, so you can't send a slew of pictures that way, and you can't expect them all to come to your house to view the pictures. Heck, maybe some of them don't even own a computer. What to do? Why not create a disc that will play in a DVD player, with your images as a slideshow and maybe some nice holiday background music? With a CD burner, you can create a VCD-a CD which will play in most newer DVD players. (Our DVD player is at least four years old, and it plays VCDs). Progressive scan is a cool feature that makes the picture quality of your DVDs look even better. It replaces the interlaced signal that is usually sent and processes each line in sequence, allowing for less flicker and ultimately an much smoother and clearer signal feed. You will definitely be able to tell the different on HDTVs, and even if your current TV does not support progressive scan playback, you are able to turn it off, allowing you to switch back when and if you upgrade your tele. Playing DVDs under GNU/Linux has not had the happiest of histories, what with the DeCSS debacle and subsequent legal battle. So you'd be forgiven for thinking that you will never be able to play your DVDs on your GNU/Linux system. Luckily, this is not the case, and there are several applications available for you to download and use. The issue with DeCSS is still with us but is slowly getting clearer. However, this has left some of the DVD players officially not supporting encrypted DVDs, although unofficially, playback is possible via third-party additions. Samsung's DVD-V4600 DVD/VCR combo has a full complement of AV inputs and outputs for its 4 Head HiFi VCR section, as well as composite, component, and S-Video outputs for the DVD side.

For TVs with no AV inputs, the DVD-V4600 also has RF outputs.
