The picture could use a little improvement when up-scaling a DVD. Netflix loads faster than on our Wii. Wish it was possible to stream video/audio over the network to the player, from a pc. I'm not sure I would ever turn it off then.
This was my first blu-ray purchase. I bought it because of the LG reputation & I have not been disappointed. It is easy to set up & use. I have definately got my $ worth from it
This is my first HD experience: bought BD550 and 55LE4500 TV, hooked them through HDMI, and was looking at Bluray disks and upconverted DVDs; very easy to use. Was happy for a while, till I noticed that blu-ray playbacks would often be interrupted with the video switching off for a second or less ... still haven't figured out what is wrong. The features I don't much care about since I have internet access and DLNA on the TV, but the regular updates are good. What is missing about the updates is any description of what the update does! And, the requirement to remove disks and usb sticks for an upgrade to take place is irritating to say the least. Additional useful feature would have been automatic ethernet from the power line if homeplug a/v was automatically installed.
This BD player is great but with one simple addition it could be superb! It has Netflix built in, but you cannot add to your queue from the player. Also they do not connect you to Hulu nor other UpNP / DNLA servers.
So happy with the performance, and features of this product! Cannot rave enough on how nicely this product performs it's duties. This is my second blu-ray, and what an improvement from another brand! My third LG product, and it will not be my last!! Thanks!!
Pros: Performance, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality
I have owned my Blue Ray DVD player for a litle over a month and I am very happy with its performance. It is very easy to hook up to my TV and my internet network.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality
Great blu-ray player. Easy to setup and use. Has some nice features and web apps included are very good. Plays my netflix movies with no sound or video problems at all. If someone were to ask for a recommendation of a good, but affordable blu-ray player, I would definitely recommend this one.
Pros: Performance, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality, price
I bought this unit thinking it would be great since it has a network connection. What a joke !!! After spending hours trying to get it to connect through my cable connection, it just sits there and tells me that there is an upgrade available. When I try to download the upgrade it justs sits there and then times out. My cable connection is rated at 5MPS and I've had it checked. Be careful with this one!!!
