ZOMBIES & COWBOYS , CHECK PLEASE.
on July 15, 2016
Posted by: Besty
Verified Purchase:Yes
I can't truthfully say that I really would recommend this film. Music stars playing zombie fighting cowboys , a pretty cheap budget based on quality of acting and story.
Maybe someone said , " let's make a movie so we can say we are in one ". My first non recommendation. Don't want you to suffer.

This suspense , mystery tale puts Mary Elizabeth Winstead and John Goodman into a " I don't know if I believe you " situation. It's a good tale and tense within a small area .
Don't want to spoil , so I'll leave it at that.
Surprise ending will be worth getting this movie.

if half your screen is very dark could your hdmi cable have gone bad(not working)

Tough question . It could be a malfunction of the back lighting panel. Some back lighting is edge , local or full array.
Part of the system could go bad in an isolated area.
The SONY model 930D , has a dual light panel that seperately could go wrong , either the top or bottom. It's new technology for Sony tvs to increase brightness and overall picture quality.
An HDMI cable could have a glitch that more than likely would affect the whole pictue , but anything is possible.

what is the name of the box for4k tv's that has movies?

Not sure which box you refer to. There are boxes put out by the tv manufacturers such as SONY or SAMSUNG that contain 4K CONTENT .
Other boxes available by private companies do offer 4K streaming services.

Difference between HDMI 1.3 vs 2.0 output.

The 1.3 cable or 1.4 handles the processing of HD CONTENT.
The 2.0 cable is Required for the 4K proper processing. It also helps to keep the superior color and sound spectrum.

how do u set this player to show a full image instead of letterbox bars on top and bottom on 4k movies

I haven't tried it , but your Menu should allow picture configuration like full screen , original format , etc. Or try on your TV menu under picture format choice.

What is the best HDMI cable to use with this player and a Samsung UN55KS8500 4K tv? I'm looking for HDMI 2.0a cables.

Monster cables are always good , though could be pricy.
Best Buy has several choices I've seen in the store.

will it play oder dvd discs

Yes , 100%. It will upgrade the picture quality . Your old dvds will look better and your Blurays upscale to near 4K , but not same level. That's due to the Ultra 4K HDR . YOUR TV HAS TO BE ABLE TO PROCESS HDR ,to get the full effect.

I have a LG OLED55C6P I know this unit will work with my TV but LG uses Passive 3D Glasses. In an earlier question someone said that you needed to use Active 3D glasses with this Blue Ray Player. is that the case with this LG TV?

NO , YOU DON'T NEED ACTIVE GLASSES.
CONGRATS ON YOUR LG OLED TV. THEY ARE THE BEST.
I RECENTLY (FEB.2016) BOUGHT THE OLED 65" EF9500.
UNREAL TV. EVERYTHING IS AWESOME .
I'VE PLAYED A FEW 3D MOVIES so far with the Samsung player and not only the LG 3D GLASSES , BUT EVEN.USED THE SAME PASSIVE GLASSES FROM MOVIE THEATERS AND HAVE NOT HAD A PROBLEM.
At this point , I'm already looking to sell my 65EF9500 of a few months and buy the New 65" E 6P or G 6P. I'm addicted to the LG Oled.

HDMI UHD color working when using regular blu rays, but I lose picture when I play a 4k UHD disk. Any suggestions?

If you're using the Samsung 4K Ultra HDR player , it will upgrade your Blurays to an improved picture and sound.
If you play the latest 4K Ultra HDR discs , they should play without loss of sound or picture quality. Make sure you have HDMI high speed cables. They support 2.0 processing . If you lose picture , that's extreme. Usually more common to lose the quality of picture if no 4K Ultra TV , or cable connect problems. HDR only works with certain ports on some TVS .
