Samsung BD-D5500 3D Blu-ray Disc Player (Black)
pros / cons.1) BD-D5500 has a loading tray, which promotes the correct handling of the edge of the disc. (The player is more expensive than a "slot load").
2) Despite the complaints of a person, it is a standard width (17 "), the same as my old DVD player and get me.3) The controls are light and easy to use even in a dark room. The controls are identified only by signs.4) as a control (no keys) --- Some quick tap is good enough, sometimes not. I would like to respond to the touch of a button.5) If you "break" the movie (and not removed from the player), you can return to play in the same position for hours, days, maybe later, but if you "stop" playing with the disk or power, they forget that. When you stop --- Caveat connected to a Samsung TV, if you turn off the TV automatically plays.
ProblemThis is the first of the three-dimensional television, film, TV, and these actors / players will not be easy. "The picture and sound" that you can "mix and match" with impunity. But they are very sophisticated in their computers to "talk" to each other and "talk" to the router and Internet service. The easiest way to ensure that the reader and TV. "He speaks the same language" is to match the TV and the same make and model.
Most of the problems reported by others for me to be sound:.1) The production in the period 2010-2011, which is necessary to update the firmware.2) has caused the unit to a Samsung TV with an old TV to the conflict or who are able to support some of the features of the player.3) for the poor, the wireless LAN and wireless connections can be difficult, and may be subject to interference from other electronic devices (computers, wireless door bells, lamps, microwave ovens, etc..)4) of the cable that --- in particular as an unfortunate as the lower component (which does not support HD or 3D) or HDMI cable is not capable of supporting the latest features.
The BD-D5500 is an epidemic that many reviewers call it, Amazon will be flooded with hundreds of "design" or "be in accordance with the" --- big discounts, but from January 2012. There is an excess of "no decoration" DB-D5500s Stream movies (Netflix) to play DVD movies and TV Blu-ray (3D), and have absolutely no problem.
UPDDATES FIRMWARE.Not by the wind. "Firmware Update" --- I did't update the firmware of my player.(Since it is not connected to the Internet, and I have no problems with it), but not update the firmware on my TV Samsung D8000 is a simple and easy to update the software on your computer. If you have an Internet connection. (See below), just go to Settings and select "update" that's all. No big deal.
Overall result(High Definition) movies on Blu-ray DB-D5500 is a novel, (a low standard) DVD player is more apparent than on my older DVD players. Nothing much to say.
Compared to other brands of DVD players Blu-ray.Among the players, Blu-ray, which can be fully supported by the TV (like 3D), I conclude that the player Samsung BD-D5500 is the best match of the larger Samsung TV in particular. Model 2011 (D8000 series) compared to other brands such as:.1) and Samsung TV remote controls are very similar, and both players can control both the TV and DVD players.2) If you select a player from the TV source, the player will automatically open and start playing. If you insert the disc into the player. (Or play with the disk pre-loaded), turn on the TV series "original", and if you start out and then return to TV.3) the player and the TV to sync with each other --- it does not have to worry about a player in one way, while the TV is in a different mode. For example, there are a variety of ways' "(which are suites, set the contrast, tone, brightness, contrast, etc.) is called" dynamic "," movie "," natural ", etc. on the TV D8000. Samsung (and probably other recent Samsung TV) If the "source" as a player, the Samsung, then "Mode" "BDWise" available "BDWise" is always the best --- but it is not necessary. If the TV and choose a different brand.4) the logic of the TV and the same, so you have to learn one system.5) Do not worry about the possible conflicts that may arise from mixing different brands of players and TV. This is particularly a problem with 3D.
