It was great while it worked

I was happy with the BD550 until shortly after the warranty ran out it stopped playing BD disks. Everything else still works fine, and it still plays DVD, just no BD.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great player, mediocre software
on January 25, 2014
Posted by: CBrianA
This one was purchased to replace another player that stopped working. It HAD to have Netflix and VuDu, but anything else just added to the value.
The player hookup was so simple - just three wires, incuding the Cat-5. Once it was powered up, I just had to set the language. It found the network and was ready to go.
This unit has DLNA, which was something I wanted, but had not listed as a requirement. It comes with the Nero Media Home, which works, but is difficult to use. When media is added, I found it was necessary to stop the server and restart it before the BluRay player would find it.
Other DLNA server software will work with the unit, including Windows Media Player, but you have to set each one up before you can stream.
Overall, this is an excellent player, but you should remember that you aren't limited to the software that comes with the package.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My first Blu-ray Player couldn't be better!

I have owned quite a few LG products in the last couple years, and my TV and this Blu-ray player are magnificent. Coupled with my satellite TV and my BD550 Blu-ray player on the new TV, I have the best of all worlds. LG has never let me down. I got this player as a gift a few years ago, and it still looks and functions like a new unit. I'd say buy LG if you want quality and value that can't be surpassed.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

A Blu-Ray player which won't play Blu Ray discs
on July 6, 2013
Posted by: NHR

I received the players as a gift for Christmas one year. We've had it for about 2 years now.
The interface is poor at best and the included programs are awful(Netflix, Pandora). This is really fine as we just use our Nintendo WII for most streaming tasks.
Recently our player has stopped playing Blu-Ray discs. We put the disc into the player, it attempts to read it for a few minutes, then spits it back out. DVDs still work, but all Blu-Ray discs are a no-go now. The problem started intermittently but now every disc is rejected.
We verified that the firmware was up to date and reset to factory defaults. Nothing has worked so now we are shopping for a new player which isn't made by LG.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
