From another forum a user claims:
Quote:
For whatever reason my player (The player is a Philips DVP5990) won't read .avi files. I have to re-encode all my files to .divx for them to be seen without error.
Can this be true? My 5982 plays every Xvid I've thrown at it. I was gonna recommend a 5992 to a friend.

Some comments would be appreciated.

Here's a few comments.
The avi and divx containers are similar, seems odd that a player
doesn't like the avi. Only takes a few minutes to remux avi
to divx, no re-encoding necessary.

According to this faq, it does play avi:
