MKV files on LG BD370
Advantages: Divx HD and MKV playback, Youtube, Cheap Disadvantages: Remote control a bit cheap
...gem from LG. The LG BD370 is priced at the entry level market, however its features go far beyond entry level. For starters it's profile 2.0 BD Live ready, (just plug in a USB stick at least 1gb for it to work), It looks gorgeous, its very fast loading, with a number of user selectable skins. Another good feature is the inclusion of Youtube, so you can browse and watch Youtube videos on your HD TV. (I had a few problems getting it to work with my ... ...to the blu ray player) The creme de la creme of this player is that it will also play Divx HD and Xvid HD, or .MKV files along with normal divx files. Simply burn the .MKV onto a DVD or DVD DL and watch Divx in full HD, fantastic. Finally the sound and picture are both excellent. If you are into watching Divx and want to move onto Blu Ray rips and MKV files, then this machine is for you ...

Holy Momma
Advantages: both formats in one system, great pictures as you'ld expect Disadvantages: very very expensive, no internet output
Saw this at a friends house the other day - well i couldnt miss it since he was carping on and on about it. You might ask what all the hullabaloo was about? Well, this is the first dvd player that incorporates both blu ray and hd-dvd in one pretty little package. And that comes at one hell of a damn price. My mate brought it for close to £900 pounds and i almost hurled. I could have brought two PS3's or four XBOX 360's for that amount. Still though ... ...of the two is limited in practise. The blu ray works great and looks great as does the hd-dvd, yet the hd only works on the full movie parts. you cant watch the special features which was a bummer as i brought over one of my best movies - Dumb and Dumber :)
Great picture and sound quality for both platforms and you can never fault the images that you see. Vivid, good contrast, very very sharp with very little picture noise. In terms of output its ...

The League Of Extraordinary Blu-Ray
Advantages: Fantastic picture, sound and at a pretty good price. Disadvantages: Price can vary. You'll never want to leave your sofa and so any work!
...staunch support by Sony and Panasonic amongst others, and boasted about the later updates to its technology available via internet linking, which it claimed would help it stay ahead of the pack in the future. Blu-Ray whilst initially lagging behind, soon caught up due to it's profile 2.0 updates giving it previously missing features such as the picture in picture and more interactive extra features available vi BD-Live (requiring internet link as ... ...time. The Panasonic DMP-BD 80 EG is a little piece of magic
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Panasonic are thought of by many as the kings of Blu-Ray manufacturers. They produce high-quality, admittedly not always cheap Blu-Ray players with an emphasis on great picture and sound quality. The 80 EG keeps with this tradition admirably. It's been out now for some months but is still one of the newer players ...

You shouldn't suffer from 'the blues' with this Blu-Ray !
Advantages: Great looking, fantastic picture quality and value for money. Reputable and reliable brand. Disadvantages: The shiny and glossy appearance dust show the dust so get the duster out between films!
...on the market currently. Samsung is a quality brand - well known in the electronics industry for producing televisions and mobile phones among other devices. APPEARANCE
--------------------
As we have come to expect from Samsung, the BD-P1600 is black and glossy. This looks fantastic although you'll need to dust it regularly to keep it looking crisp and clean. Just ask the missus to do it - simple! No, I didn't mean that.
Tell her to do it.
Only ... ...if you prefer, purchase a Samsung usb dongle and connect wirelessly via a wi-fi connection, or upgrade via a disc. You can access the BD Live servce and extra bonuses on certain discs via the internet connection. There are 2 USB slots included with this player which is a brilliant addition believe me. You can connect other devices such as USB memory drives to add to the 256mb internal memory, or as mentioned above - the wi-fi dongle.
One of the ...
