BluRay player - What are You using at home?

32 replies

Thinking about getting a BluRay unit for the BV10 and been looking around; while I currently looking at the Samsung BD-C6900 (assuming that it will be able to control via PUC); but what are you using and what are the recommendations?link

I have the BC6900 contolled via PUC by a beo5 and I very happy with it. It has Netflix, Pandora and Blocbuster.
Very pleased w/ a Panasonic 85K. Wired or wireless and Netflix is great.

Not bad looking for "another" brand either!

Hi!

Have a samsung bd-c7500 attached to the back of a BV10-40 with a stb bracket. Works nicely except BV10 forgets the puc codes after a while but it seems to be a sw problem.

Are the Samsung BD players able to connect to network shares such as from Windows system and NAS (SAMBA shares)? See in the manual for the BD-C6500 / BD-C6900 that one have to install software on a Windows PC to be able to connect to that specific PC shares?

So another question then; does anyone have suggestion on BD players that can play media from network shares?

Hello,

I am using my Sony PS3...and the result is great when whatching movies on Bluray.

Cheers,

Hi!

At least my BD-C7500 can connect to network shares. It can play music and show pics but as I´m using wireless it´s not possible to share movies (too slow connection)

To connect to network share; do you need to "publish" the shared folder from PC using the SAMSUNG PC Share Manager or are you just connecting to what ever share that you have on the local network?

PS3.... Most Money value..;-)

In one way I could agree with you, but since I'm not a gamer nor any other in the family and simplicity is the primary goal here; PS3 is not on my shortlist. Also, how good is the PS3 on upscaling DVD's?
