blu ray player no picture image
Q. I really do not want the ps3 for ANY type of gaming but i notice the pricetag is similar to other blu ray players and sometimes even cheaper. Are there any differences in picture/video quality between the ps3 and a sony/sharp/panny blu ray player?? Can someone enlighten me please.


Answer
Get a dedicated blu-ray player, even if it costs a few more $$.
The PS3 does many things ok but not a single thing great.

What form of blu ray player should i get?




Fernando


I just bought a 55" HDTV 1080p 120HZ LED tv and now want blu ray. I have it next to my desktop tower. If I get an internal blu ray drive player in my desktop tower and my monitor comes with a HDMI port which i can connect to the tv will the quality of picture be different? Or would a regular blu ray player be better?


Answer
You can go either way (assuming your computer is capable of handling blu-ray ... check the requirements ... the graphic card must be fast enough, for example). However if you go with the built in computer drive note you can't expect to "connect (the monitor) to the TV". Why? The TV and the monitor are display devices. The blu-ray player is a source device. You can only connect a display to a source.

A stand alone player will offer other capability beside just playing Blu-ray disks (e.g. Picassa, Netflix or other services, USB playback of Jpeg and video, decoding of HD audio from the Blu-ray disk. On the other hand, a computer drive allows you to (potentially ... you have to buy capable software as well as the drive) rip Blu-ray disks to the computer for conversion or use as in media centre mode. Which fits your needs better depends on your needs.

I think you will find by the time you pay for the drive and software (and maybe to get a faster graphics card or upgrade the computer RAM) a stand alone player may look pretty good. Note that even basic players handle Blu-ray essentially identically to premium players (the extra $$ primarily buys better build quality, extra features and better DVD performance).

Help with lag caused from my new bluray?

blu ray player keeps cutting out
 on ... Price!!! Panasonic SC-BT730 Blu-ray DiscTM 5.1 Home Theater System
blu ray player keeps cutting out image



R


I have a wireless belkin router. Running off of it is a desktop computer (wired) and a laptop (wireless). I've never had a issues with lag or slowing down before I added my new magnavox wifi bluray player. Now, it seems like it's hogging the speed.

What can I do to fix it?



Answer
If it truly is hogging the wi-fi (ie: laggy with it and suddenly gets better without it) then yeah it's probably the blu-ray and there's really nothing you can do aside from upgrading your internet speeds. This is most common when you're in a house that has used the desktop/laptop for general e-mail and web browsing (maybe some netflix from time to time with varying results) and suddenly try to stream things via wi-fi - that'll suck your bandwidth heavily. I run 5 streaming devices in my household and had to get a fiber optic connection with 20 mbs up and down to keep them from slowing down my internet and I pay about $60/mo for my connection alone in a suburb of Kansas City. My mother has major slowdown issues because she refuses to upgrade her $20/mo DSL to anything faster. Up to you, but these speed issues probably have nothing to do with your blu-ray player and everything to do with the amount of Internet bandwidth you're paying for. Basic high speed internet packages just don't cut it these days with online streaming and gaming as an option.

Should I buy a SP3 blu-ray player or the Sony stand alone blu-ray player?

blu ray player on sale image



MissNowMrs


I am interested in getting a blu-ray player and confused as to which one to buy! Which would produce better sound and image quality? I like the idea of the SP3 to play games on as well, but I'm not totally sure I would use it a lot to play games. Right now, the price for either seems to be about the same, so I am torn - please help! Thanks for your input!


Answer
As of today the ONLY Blu-ray player worth buying is the the PS3 ... if you don't want a games machine or want the style of a stand alone player wait for the Profile 2.0 machines later this summer.

BUT before buiyng make sure you can benefit from Blu-ray or that the improvement is worth the ~$8-$10 higher price of disks (don't expect current sale prices to continue ... they are artificial) and cost of the hardware. For many people Blu-ray is not a significant improvement over upconverted DVD. At the least you MUST have an HDMI equipped HDTV (and preferably a 1080p model over 40") ... not to mention the need for a good audio system to take advantage of the advanced audio.

It's a lot of money ... so I suggest you get a demo on an HDTV as similar as possible to yours (size, resolution) AND watch from the same distance as you will use at home. Compare a DVD and Blu-Ray disk (preferably the same movie) --- don't just watch a Blu-ray demo disk they are often HD video totally unrepresentative of what you will see on movies.

Why get a Roku when a (cheaper) internet-capable Blu-Ray player can do the same thing?




Alex


Roku 3 costs $100. Internet capable Blu-Ray players can be had on sale for $40. What capabilities does a Roku 3 offer that a Blu-Ray (which can also play Blu-Ray discs) doesn't?


Answer
I have both a Panasonic BluRay player and the WD TV Live streamer.

The Panasonic required an additional wireless dongle ($90) to go live but the WD box cost only $99.

The Panasonic had 7 apps and in a years time was upgraded to 8. The WD LIve box came with .. 21 apps and now has over 30. Plus it gets firmware updates every few weeks.

My WD box interface is much nicer and more responsive than the "add on" apps on the BluRay player. The WD box also lets me plug in a USB flash or hard-drive and play computer files.

The Panasonic sometimes while playing BluRay disks gives me network errors mid-play even if I am not using the wireless. It's integration is ... less than stellar.

So I am a big fan of the external media streamers.

Can I plug a Blu-Ray player to a non-HD (read regular) TV?

blu ray player cheap image






There's an opportunity for me to buy a Blu-Ray player very cheap, but I'm not planning on buying a High-Def TV until later (next year).
Will it still work on my regular TV using component cables?
Will the movies "play" correctly?
Will I be able to access all the content on the discs?

Please help! Thanks!



Answer
of course you can ! And you already know the resolution will downgrade to your existing TV resolution / just think for a moment how badly an appliance manufacturer would screw themselves if they made their equipment incompatible with a huge installed base of TV owners who may not have some HD standard since there so many different ones or just a standard TV.

Companies like Sony and Panasonic wouldn't shoot themselves in the foot by making their players incompatible with people like you who don't yet have / but plan on buying an HD TV.

Also, consider the Sony PlayStation 3, is a BluRay player since many of their games come on the larger BluRay capacity disc and those also play fine on convetional and numerously different formatted HD / EDTV's.

Look at it a different way, lets say this BluRay player doesn't work with your TV for whatever reasons, research how much you could resell it for used on Amazon's Marketplace and compare what you're planning on paying for it to what you could resell it for.

If you can sell it for more than you paid for it then the decision for you to go ahead and purchase in anticipation for using it now, or waiting until you upgrade, or just reselling it for a profit.

Use those three factors as your criteria and make it a business decision.

How is Bluray at 720p compared to 1080p? What is 24p in human talk?

blu ray player 24p
 on 47 LG 47LW650 Full HD 1080p Digital Freeview LED 3D TV
blu ray player 24p image



DRL


I might get a 720p 32"-37" hdtv. I do not notice a difference with Optimum Cablevision cable in Westchester, NY but I have not seen a bluray at 720p yet. My Panasonic blu ray player has an option for 24p and I was wondering if I should have it on all the time or only for certain things?


Answer
24p is usually not properly processed by TVs that even say 24p processing. Blu-Ray has an icredibly higher bitrate for audio and video. Sure it has a higher resolution, but it's not compressed in any way like DVD. Everyone thinks Blu-Ray is better because it's 1080p, but in reality that is only a minor advantage.

1080p only makes a difference in very big TVs that are over 60". Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

32-37" 1080p TVs usually have better contrast ratios, brightness, color accuracy, etc. 1080p in that small of a size is usually reserved for premium TVs with better features other than just 1080p

If it's 720p, it may have worse picture quality which has nothing to do with resolution.


It's kind of hard to explain because whenever a TV is 1080p it's usually better because it will have other features that make the image quality better. Lol, it has nothing to do with 1080p though!


Plasmas beat LCD! They are cheaper, too!

I have an LG 42 inch plasma and just bought a blu-ray player but 24p output is a little distorted?




Josiel


the movie plays fine with 24p output but it plays a litte distorted but doesnt freeze or anything.

does this mean that my tv doesnt hold for the 24p output or maybe i just need a better HDMI cable?



Answer
What movie you watching???

Something made recently, like in the last 10 years?

Did you know that todays movies were never done on film at 24 frames per second?

They were all done using Cameras/DVDs that run at 30 frames per second.

It's the OLD FILM movies from the 20's up to the early 90's that should be watched using the 24 frame mode....

How to connect my computer to my sony s370 blu ray player?

Terri


I know that there is a way to connect my computer to stream to my sony s370 blu ray player. I would like to know if I would need a cable of some sort to connect them and if so what kind?
I've been looking this up for days and would love if someone could help me figure this out.

Thank you in advance.



Answer
What you have to do is get a router then you connect the Blu ray and the computer to the router using cat5 or cat 6 cable or you could also go wireless if you have the proper adapters and equipment for that and then you create a network, for the computer and the blu ray, most routers will do this fairly easily using an included disk that you insert into the computer, the network is also connected to the Internet, the blu ray does not have a browser so you cannot go any where on the internet nor can you transfer anything you want from your computer, the blu ray is limited to certain sites on the Internet it can visit and certain things it can do. The blu ray will not connect directly to your computer but I think there may be a way to send still photos from the computer to the blu ray that will appear on the TV screen.

hydro


I recently bought a 3d blu ray player to watch a 3d movie but it won't work. Do I actually need a 3d tv as well for it to work at all?


Answer
Yes because a 3d movie is TWO movies on the screen at the same time. One for the right eye only, one for the left eye only. The tv must have the hardware and software to handle this extra information. Plus be able to work with the 3d glasses that it comes with. A regular tv was only made to handle one movie on screen at a time.

Q. I have a 52" HD TV (1080p) and a JVC surround sound system that only plays regular DVDs. I want to buy a Blu-Ray player to put into this system. How do I hook it up? Please don't tell me I have to buy a new surround sound system to go with the new Blu-Ray player!


Answer
"Please don't tell me I have to buy a new surround sound system to go with the new Blu-Ray player!"

You already know the answer.

Does the 'system' have a extra optical or coaxial-digital input? If so, you just run either a toslink cable or video cable from the BlueRay player to this input and you have 5.1 surround sound.

If the 'system' has a Left/Right RCA audio inputs (colored red and white), you MIGHT be able to hook up RCA cables from the BlueRay player to these inputs.

But - standard DVD's include ProLogic sound track which work with the Left/Right audio outputs. I dont know if BluRay disks offer a ProLogic track. Check the menu system of the player to see if it will down-convert the sound to ProLogic.

I'm going to get a Sony PS3(PlayStation 3) from US to India, but am not aware of the compatibility with Indian Blu-rays discs and ps3 games and with the LCD/LED monitors that are available in Indian. Can anyone guide me regarding this? Thanks much in advance.


Answer
If you are using HDMI, you won't have any problems with any PS3 games.

If you are not using HDMI, you will have problems with a few older PS3 games. But most will still work.

HD is not region specific, which is why its not a problem if you are using HDMI.
http://www.avforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=622804
http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=ps3&thread.id=1347414

Links for games in PAL regions working on the U.S. consoles.

Blu-Ray movies aren't as strict on region coding as DVDs. A lot are region free and will play anywhere, but some movies have region locks and won't play in players of other regions.

You should buy a power converter capable of at least 400 watts if you're buying a Slim model just because its not really confirmed whether or not the Slim has a universal PSU like most Fatboy PS3s do.

Vizio 32" LED will it work in India if I take it from US?







I am planning to take my Vizio 32" LED SMART TV to India. Just wanted to know if it works there , because in India power will be 240Hz . Do I require any converter then ?


Answer
No, it won't work.

India uses 240V, US uses 120V. So you'll need a power converter.

India uses PAL, US uses NTSC, so you'll need a video converter. One for each device you want to connect to the TV (one for the blu-ray/DVD player, one for the cable or satellite or antenna, one for the game console...)

I don't know what broadcast standards India uses but it's a sure bet the US doesn't use the same ones, so you'll need an external tuner (and video converter for that as well.)

By the time you add up the costs of all these converters, plus the cost of shipping the TV to India in the first place, you'll find it would have just been cheaper, and easier, to buy a new 32" Vizio LED HDTV in India.

How do I do this? I know it can be done but I can't seem to be able to do it.

Please I need step by step instructions as I've tried just about everything.

Answer
When you want to stop the movie press circle and exit out then shut off the ps3, dont just shut off the ps3 while watching the movie and it should be fine I think. I know that blu rays were struggling to remember where they ended themselves at but other movies like normal dvds or videos you have on your hd always remember.
Do you have the most recent version of the firmware on the ps3. v2.70. I think anytime after firmware v2.21 it is suppose to have the playback feature. I.E. Connect it to internet and go to settings...system update and it will tell you what version you have and if it needs updated. If its already the latest version i believe when you press triangle during the movie and press the red square it should bookmark it i believe. I read that last part on a blu ray thread. I hope this helped you out i dont watch to many blu rays on my ps3.

How can I connect my Samsung Blu Ray player to the internet?




djb5474


I have a samsung blu ray player that has an ethernet jack to connect to the internet...but my hub is downstairs and running a wire isn't an option. I have wireless throughout the house...is there a way to transmit the wireless signal to *something*, then run the ethernet cable from that to the blue ray player. Thanks. Look forward to hearing some ideas cause now I'm stuck.


Answer
I had the same problem, if you're wireless router is a G series (80211.g) all you need is a range expander. I picked up the Linksys WRE54G which plugs into an electric wall outlet. The WRE54G connects to my 80211.g router wirelessly. The WRE54G has a ethernet port on it that I run into my Blu-Ray player and all works well.

If your Blu-Ray player is a Samsung BDP-1500 you might need two things to enable the BRLive feature. 1: You'll need to update the firmware (see Samsung website for instructions) 2. You'll need to plug in a USB flash drive into the back with at least 1-GB of space (this is required for external storage). All of this should be stated in the users guide, but a lot of people just expect to be able to plug in the ethernet cable and everything "just work", unfortunately it's not that simple.

Christophe

Answer
Your answer really depends on the model number of you blu-ray player. Some connect to the internet through an ethernet port in which case you connect to the internet using an ethernet cable, others use wifi where depending on the model of the blu-ray player you either need a dongle or everything is built in and you just connect to your router using your password for your router. If you could provide the model number of the blu-ray player that would be a lot more helpful as I could provide you with more accurate information.

When will developers start abandoning support for XP with new software?

blu ray player keeps stopping
 on New American Standard Bible Updated Edition
blu ray player keeps stopping image
Q. I am planning to continue using XP SP3 until April 2014 which is the year Microsoft will stop providing new security updates. Until then, will developers keep supporting XP for their new software? I am talking about software like Blu-ray player, 3rd party web browser, office applications, disk utilities, anti virus, other essentials like DVD burning, pdf reader, video editor and engineering software (Matlab, Mathematica and the like).


Answer
That depends on the particular developer. However, expect XP support to slowly get dropped by more and more developers as time passes, much in the way that Windows 98 support is almost completely non-existent these days.

The reason for this is that supporting XP (particularly with driver software) requires additional effort and resources on the part of the devleoper to program compatibility in. However so long as XP remains popular, then many developers will try to support it as best as they can.

How do you watch Blu-ray movies on Windows Vista?




Jessika M


I just go REPO! The Genetic Opera today, and I have the Blu-ray edition. I was just wondering what software I can use to play the movie on. Windows Media Center or Windows Media Player?


Answer
Vista (Ultimate) can view regular DVD movies without the add-on codec (i.e. a program to play movies), but it will not do BR.

Not only you will need a BR drive, you'll need a very fast computer (at least a dual-core), plenty of RAM and a dedicated graphic card (not the built-in one on the mother board).

PowerDVD 7.3 Ultra and PowerDVD 8 Ultra can play BR movies (7.3 can play HD-DVD movies, as well).

----------------

This is what it says on the box:

Due to the high computation requirement for Blu-ray discs, PowerDVD playback requires a high performance PC platform that is capable of maintaining 40 Mbps transferring of data. It is recommended that you use a system with at minimal of Intel Dual Core 3.2Ghz processors and 2GB RAM system memory (Quad Core CPU is supported.) Discrete graphics solution is also required with at least 350Mhz clock rate with 256MB VRAM. Even if you met minimal requirements, you may experience some video quality drop, frame drops or lower performance. It is recommended that all non-critical applications be closed before beginning Blu-ray Disc playback. Full CPU clock-rate is always reserved for PowerDVD Blu-ray disc playback and cannot be disabled.



Download their program to see if your system can handle a BR movie.

Maybe, first your blu-ray must be compatible with a mac. You can do this by just plugging it in after you install a blu-ray player.

You have to have a blu-ray player since quicktime, itunes or anything reinstalled won't play them.

I found on that has a free trial, the trial is just a watermark on the video while you watch it and to remove it you pay $60. I'd just use the software with the watermark. (link in source)

The software is the same as Kagerou's.

Answer
If using a Windows OS PC, these two programs, both of them, can do the Picture in Picture (PIP) effect very well and easy. They both can also do many, over 1800 each, other effects.

Go get RealPlayer, A Video Player Program that makes it easy to download any Video off of the Internet, then convert that file you download to something your Video Editing Program can understand and use.

Pinnacle Studio 14 HD Ultimate & Sony Vegas Pro 10

Screen Shot - http://asimplelife.ca/nle.html Upgrade your computer to AVCHD specs below and you can run both programs seen on my Web Page on your computer. Just Rejig the search term below in the YouTube search, from the instructions below.

This is not a program that can run on any computer, see below -

If interested, links below takes you to the sites, but you can get these two programs for free. Do this by opening a web browser, surfing over to YouTube. Once there, in the search box on that site, enter 'Pinnacle Studio 14' or âSony Vegas Pro 10â. Youâre looking for free download, find a link or video that says that, in the video description, there will be link for a free download. Make sure, before you do this, to make sure your computer can meet or exceed those Specs above, and pay special attention to the AVCHD specs if you have or are going to get a HD camcorder.

A laptop running these Programs, when rendering say a 10 minute Video out, be prepared, render times could leave your laptop useless, while rendering for 4 or 5 days on that file.

What camcorder works with Mac and the HD quality can be viewed on my 1080 46 inch sony?




Shree P


Id like a camcorder. Couple year older is fine i can get it on ebay that records in HD and is compatible to download onto my Mac. AND that if I want I can burn onto a disc and watch them with HD quality on my 1080 Tv?
I would also like to edit the videos once downloaded so I can make movies so i want the software to be all recognized.



Answer
What is your budget?

Which Apple Macintosh?
The MacBook Air and some MacBooks have no firewire port so that takes miniDV tape camcorders off the table - but just for them. ALL other Macs made in the last 10 years have a firewire port. If the Mac is running OSX, has an Intel CPU and is running iMovie '08 or newer, then AVCHD camcorders will get along.

This gets the high definition video into the computer for editing...

Now for output...

Assuming you have a Blu Ray player connected to your HDTV, you should get a Blu Ray burner connected to your Mac... LaCie makes good ones...

Another option is to connect your Mac to the HDTV - no need to burn a disk. Or get a MacMini to be a media server. The new ones can connect using either HDMI or component (+ audio).

Which DVD player...
If you have only a regular DVD player, there is nothing you can do to *make* it play high definition video, so just use iDVD and have it downsample the high def video to standard def and render for you.

But you have not supplied enough information and we don't know what you have so we don't know if your specific environment is equipped to do what you want.

I've been capturing high definition video, importing to Macs, editing and playing back standard and high definition video for about five years... using Sony and Canon camcorders...

Will a standard HDMI cable work on a 3D tv with a 3D Blu Ray player?




Jamie Mitc


I just purchased a Vizio 32" 3D tv last night. I already had an HDMI cable, so I used it to hook up the 3D Blu Ray player to the 3D tv. It appears to give a very nice 3D effect. However, I did buy the Vizio HDMI cable specifically for 3D televisions just in case mine didn't work. Will I get a better effect using the "3D ready" HDMI cables, or do I just need to take it back?


Answer
To be honest all HDMI cables work about the same, so don't waste your money on exspencive one when the cheapest ones you can get will work just the same.
