Compatible with MP3 music and JPEG photos, this plasma’s media player can also play a host of digital video files such as MPEG, MOV, AVI, DivX and, crucially, DivX HD files.

That’s mostly via a USB stick (or, for photos from a mobile, using Bluetooth), while elsewhere are four HDMI inputs.

A lacklustre performance with SD aside, the 50PS7000 is an excellent value plasma that’s best suited to anyone who wants a decent all-rounder, but who plans to watch a lot of HD material.
