Can a wifi enabled Blu Ray player with applications access them without a smart TV?

I have recently decided to purchase a home theater system/Blu Ray combo that is wifi enabled and has Netflix/Pandora/Youtube applications on it. I am also going to get a new TV but i don't really want a smart TV seeing as how they're a lot more expensive than regular LCD 1080p TV's.

I'm just wondering whether i need a smart TV in order to access the applications online, or if i can just connect to my wifi and the Blu Ray player will be able to use all of the applications by itself.

Also, i don't need full internet access on my TV, i was just hoping to use the applications that were already on the Blu Ray player like Youtube.

Thanks!



Answer
Just connect the blu-ray player to the TV, The blu-ray will do everything. The TV doesn't have to be Internet capable at all.

Can picture quality differ between different blu ray players?

Could one blu ray player look much better than the other or are all blu ray players pretty much the same when it comes to playing blu rays? I know they differ in apps and such, but I just want great picture quality and wanted to know if some players might look bad.


Answer
Yes, every Blu-ray player will give you a different overall image due to their color decoders, video processors, de-interlacing capabilities (when needed), power supplies, etc. Even if you play the same Blu-ray movie in all of them, in theory they all suppose to reproduce a slightly different image (at least). This is considering different brands. But if you're worried about "bad quality" with Blu-ray movies, I doubt you would be disappointed. Let's not forget that Blu-ray movies are mastered in native HD, usually 1080p or sometimes 1080i to 720p. What this means is that your image will be crystal clear 100% of the time with all or most players. And ofcourse, resolution doesn't guarantee anyone the right color reproduction, temperature, shadow detail, etc, etc. It is up to the user to choose the best possible player and adjust all the settings, from the player to the display. Some good players to consider: SONY PS3, Most Panasonic models, and all OPPO players. Good luck.
