I have the Philips DVD729k Standalone Player and I have 2 problems.

When I play a SVCD that I have created (PAL, Standard) on my player the audio is slightly out of sync (no problems on other DVD Players or on my computer) and the timer on the display runs slowly. So if I have a disc that has 60 minutes of video on it, it will play the full 60 min of video but the timer will move slowly up to about 42min. Both of these problems aren't there on VCDs and the SVCD samples downloaded from this site play perfectly, no synch or time errors. I use TMPGEnc and Nero to burn them.
