Well, I'm very very furious 'cause now I know that my Philips DVD 722 has a problem with firmware (2.9.6).
Every player has that firmware has problems with SVCD:

Time shown wrong.
ffw/rew doesn't work lenght > 40 mins.
svcd subtitles freeze player.
DVDs freeze 1-2 times every movie.

Now, we know it's not a problem of encoding, or authoring, 'cause with Philips SVCD Designer problems are still there.
It's a firmware problem!

Why doesn't Philips release a new firmware version?

Let's write to Philips and ask for a solution!
I wrote in main site www.philips.com

We're so many person. Let's do it.

Write in this post, please, and excuse me for my English.

Where I can see the version of my player's firmware (Philips). Where can I download the newest version of firmware ? Is there an official site ?
