Which blueray player with BV-8

9 replies

Can anybody tel me with which Blueray dvd player they have a good experience with in combination with PUC and a BV-8-40? I heard the Sony BPD350 was one of the choices.

Nothing beats the PS3-RE-BL combination!

I have to agree! The RE-BL for PS3 works really great! ๐Ÿ˜

I have my PS3 hidden in the original BV8-40 cabinet. But if the PS3 "can't breathe" like it can't in my setup, it makes a lot of noise.

Now I already have a PS3, so I'm going to stick with it. But if I didn't and was on the lookout for a bluray player, I don't think I would choose a PS3. It's really bad that it makes SO much noise. Or else I think it would be a great choice.  

A good thing about the PS3 is that it can work in a MasterLink setup and send analog, so I can watch movies in the bedroom. It can't send both analog and digital at the same time, you have to choose. But it works like a charm.

Bottom line: I think it's a GREAT player and love RE-BL. But I think the PS3 is way to loud.

Hope this helps... ๐Ÿ™‚ 

Toralfsen,

What is RE-BL?

RE-BL is for controlling the PS3.  ๐Ÿ™‚

No need for the RE_BL๐Ÿ™‚

Just buy the cheepest IR remote set for PS3 you can find, and use the IR-USB receiver from it.

Connect your IR-wire from PUC 1-4 to the IR-USB receiver and select PS3 in the PUC list in the setup.

The only thing is, that you can not turn the PS3 on. but we all need some exercise, and for most of the time your getting up to put in the DVD/Blueray disk ๐Ÿ˜• you can turn the PS3 off, in the PS Menu (all the way to the left and to the top) 

About the noice.... i have the PS3 Slim, and if it breaths ok, then the sound level is acceptable.

And together with the PS3Mediaserver

Sounds good Smedegaard. Thanks for all the info.

Any other BD besides PS3? I'm not a gamer...
