MDOJ,

My BD-P1400 has arrived late yesterday! The firmware was updated last night via the Internet to download and burn a CD. First impressions

Video - !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Audio - !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FYI: There is no difference in picture or sound quality, or any other kind of difference in the region of the United States a version of the Multi-RegionRegion A and B version of Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.

I tried a normal DVD and Germany so far and am very satisfied. Load
Times are very acceptable. Not negative to me so far on this device. Will
Report later if I'll have Brds apparently problematic.

The BD-P1400 has classic Samsung style. The front of the unit is all glossy black, with a thin strip of silver on the bottom.

Got my Samsung BD-P1400 last night and boy was Ithrilled! Before this review, let me say that this is the first and only Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc that I owned, and I have made some comparisons you are looking to start, too. If I do not do it, just lemme know! I would also say that I have the latest firmware upgrade but my modem is not near a television.

Picture

Excellent, duh ...... Black ink, good contrast, detail, everything you expect from Blue

Design: Wonderful looking BD-P1400 Blu-RayDisc player, the better, I think. Face is very open, mackerel, and the piano rocks polished finish. Good remote control.
Loading Wonderful. Are 5 movies so far, and they all loaded in approx. 15 seconds. Then there was the new F4 Silver Surfer .... This is a BD + titles from Fox and many have had complaints about the charging time. The BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc has given me no problem, and multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible. Let me say once again that thisdirectly out of the box, no firmware update yet!

FYI: There is no difference in picture or sound quality, or any other type of difference in the region of the United States a version of the Multi-County Region A and B version of the Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.
Sound

I was not with the sound than I have my Onkyo TX-SR705 does not spin. I noticed that there is an option for the set of speakers from small to large, 5.1-analog mode. There are other discussions and reports of personsAs full DTS-MA bitstream from this BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc (after firmware upgrade) in other threads and forums. I am always happy to try!

Other

The rest of the material is fairly standard. 128x max forward, took the same position in the film unit also turned off, good enough answer keys at a distance, etc.

All in all, this is a dynamite BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player. With the firmware update is this guy practically everything thatexpect from a Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc Player now!

In addition to Blu-ray, the Samsung BD-P1400 can play standard-definition DVDs and CDs.

FYI: There is no difference in picture or sound quality, or any other type of difference in the region of the United States a version of the Multi-County Region A and B version of the Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.

The BD-P1400 PBD-high resolution soundtrack support is excellent. There is no onboard decoding for Dolby Digital Plus,Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution, which may release these soundtracks either in PCM format means using the HDMI output or via the analog outputs. For newer receivers, the BD-P1400 also offers bitstream output for high-resolution soundtracks. So if you have a newer receiver with built-in Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding, you may set the BD-P1400 to output audio over HDMI in encoded bitstream format - let your receiver decode instead of BD P1400 Blu-ray DiscPlayer.

There is absolutely no difference in sound quality, either you or the recipient to decrypt the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc player decode, but some AV fans love it, the "Dolby TrueHD can be" light on their new receiver. If you are converting a code free DVD Player for $ 79.95 Planet Omni is that they have 2 warranties. So far I am very pleased with this purchase. I was not sure if I read the business right because of bad reviews, but I boughthowever.

I really do not know why people get angry when it only takes two minutes to start playing. I've rented several times, with Blu-Ray from Netflix with no problems. I'm still waiting for free on eight films.

Connectivity is also solid. There is an HDMI output can carry, including 1080p video and audio signals at high resolution.

High-definition analog video, there is a component video output (1080i) is limited and there is an S-video output and aComposite output to stdout def. (As with all DVD BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player s, is not available via DVD upscaling component video). On the audio side there is the HDMI output above, with 5.1-channel analog outputs, both optical and coaxial digital audio outputs and two analog stereo outputs.

Rounding connectivity is an Ethernet port to which the firmware update from the Internet - a feature that allows custom HD-DVD player, but veryrare in Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray.

FYI: There is no difference in picture or sound quality, or any other type of difference in the region of the United States a version of the Multi-County Region A and B version of the Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.

The BD-P1400 did a good job of making the opening sequence for Star Trek: Insurrection you down, demonstrating its 2:3 pull-. The next step was Seabiscuit, and the BD-P1400 is a fixed point to introduce difficult, with few to noAliasing on the images in black and white.

MDOJ,

Just a quick update Samy BD-P1400. I rented an AB from Netflix and enjoyed the BD-P1400 - how about you? All the techno-jargon aside, for me this is a great BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player.

I hope that the head dudes will be responsible for this forum is a sticky for the Samsung BD-P1400 - hint - hint! Home video you see here ... not save.

Samsung is a really goodDevice for the price. The version multi-region is only $ 849.95 from Planet Omni use it, and depending on the motherboard specifically introduced a dual luck and hard work that is a bargain, in my opinion should cost.

I could not have my device directly into my modem with a network cable (in accordance with instructions from Samsung in the manual) and BD-P1400 Blu-ray loaded the new firmware and found no need for me to know the computer to burn a disc. .. etc.Very cool.

The Samsung has a great image and the current update I hear DTS-HD Master Audio (Sony can not say that for twice the price!).

Think with the pace at which technology I moved, it is very difficult for a manufacturer that is committed to produce these units, which the market and are highly relevant "to the new disk technology on a daily basis) will change, but (Samsung told me with a device, I can only get into my modem and an update ifhave available. I think it's incredible.

A little 'patience and understanding can go a long way. After all ... It was not so long ago that the purchase of an electronic component, you can not update it at all. I am sure that Samsung comes with an update soon. I found in all the records I could not play, still in progress.

Since I have never seen a 1200 in action, I can not help you - but the BD-P1400 PQ is excellent, but that's what all the information on Blu - is not it?

I tried several BDfrom Netflix and a few standard-def DVD. All were great. Regarding the problem of handshake, I'm not really sure what it is .... and the general and then fall to play ... Why you want to do that anyways in a movie?

Great BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc, I could not be happier I have the new BD-P1400 last week. 1200 brought. (more 100 price difference in my favor. PROS = had the image quality is by far the best of what I've seen, even better, then I panny.

Controls areeasily and exactly the same mass. I do not know how you lose the signal the beginning of the slices.
AUDIO = I am not able to exploit all audio functions, based on my Onkyo a few years. I've had with the installation of an optical digital cable, point the sound is really very good, with the exception of I, and POPS again.

As for BD, POTC about 2 minutes, had no problem and the multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible, with other BD movies. I noticedthat, after hitting a break and went to play made the movie would play for a minute and then stop. I would suggest to play again. No big deal.

Use the Ethernet port to download the new firmware, you can not say if the difference is. I'm sorry you are not technical, but that is to check my blue collar. all ?????? s are the best that I can answer

Just finished watching Casino Royale - spectacular!

I have a Playstation 3, the extraordinary image quality for both Blu-Ray and upscaling of standard DVD'sSince a software upgrade. We use this for our main HD TV in living room. I needed a BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player for HD-TV for a second that we had just hanging in our bedroom.

I waited for the BD-P1400 will be available, because they are already Blu-Ray and wanted the latest technology related. I can not say enough about the quality of sound that the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc Player offers, it's incredible. The picture quality is excellent and on par with the Playstation 3 Ito think seriously about buying a second BD-P1400 set for our principal, as the sound exceptional. Great BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player especially for the money.

By far the best Blu-ray I've ever tried. Never watch cartoons, but now I am spending much time watching with my children.

This is a great Blue Ray BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player. DTS-HD MA bitstream to the end. I have this product for about two months in possession and I am excited about it, is really a good deal. I only use my Blu RayBD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player Blu Ray, because the sound is played on a Samsung 5-Disc Receiver managed. The picture quality is amazing. I own four Blu-Ray (I) purchased from Amazon at $ 14.99 per person and you all play nice, no problem and the multi-region version from Planet Omni is still incredible, and a crystal clear picture.

I bought the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc in December. I hung out with an HDMI cable to a Sony receiver. The Cable BoxComcast is connected to the receiver. The receiver is connected to a 42-inch Panasonic Plasma 1080p. Three HDMI cable, the game is done.

It worked without any problems from the start, with all Blu-Ray we have tried. We get about a week from Netflix. I can play Pirates of the Caribbean 3 Not sure why the other reviewers have not.

The picture quality is superb, with the planet Earth. I think I can, the Panasonic TV, especially for this credit.

I have firmware version 1.2Update in December. I only have version 1.5 firmware upgrade yesterday, February 5. I downloaded both the CD ISO.

For me, it works quickly. In order to have a couple of seconds to wait until the boat up to, so what? Get the DVD while waiting.

Most boot computer now take a few minutes. I think it will never be, probably, over time, probably worse, since these are essentially computers, and technological progress is slower on these machines, and in turn inviteon.

After updating the firmware, I checked my settings and found reset. If you have a digital receiver, you must ensure that the audio of "bit-rate is set and if not PCM surround sound.

I also had no problems, and multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible to play regular CDs or DVDs. So, if it is obsolete, replaced my other BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc and improve the quality of regular DVDtogether with my other great Samsung 720P.

I do not think that anyone would think of late, because the format war. Once you buy something today, is obsolete and finally throw away this book. At least that is when you can enjoy life is too short. Today's prices, what the hell, it is advantageous to buy now before the dollar is worth nothing! You can create an entire home theater system with 1080p HDMI-based speakers for less than $[...] now. Thank you China! I have my HDMI cablefrom Planet Omni, $ 19.95 long by 2 meters, image and sound excellent!

Before I joined this, I updated the firmware via the Ethernet port. Once that was done, I had no problem and the multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible, installed with the BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player. I was wondering whether or not to buy, so, some bad reviews, but the activity was simply too good to be losing the stand-alone. Those of you who have had problems with the BD-P1400Blu-ray have every right to complain, it is here that these contributions.

However, it should not stop the people do not complain to 1.1 or 2.0 (no BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc Player 2.0 yet). Nowhere in the description because this should be BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc Player 1.1. If you want to tell people there are updates and follow the BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player can not be granted, go on, but to say that is horrible and outdated, asBeing 1.0 is misleading. I have the feeling that most people just want the movie and rarely use the features) to 1.1 (like picture in picture commentary.

When yourself, the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc is perfect. If you are a 1.1 BD-P1400 Blu-ray, get the Panasonic. To me, this will be good for the next few years at work, while Blu-ray is its act together and closes an emergent product. I hope that those of you who might have problems with themresolved and can now enjoy the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc as me.

I had no problems, and multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more surprising, with the Samsung BD-P1400-PBD. I have in my pocket, in combination with the Internet and began with the utility for updating the firmware. After about 20 minutes, the firmware update was successful and I played my first movie without problems. All the films I've played since it has gone smoothly. You can also use the firmware fromBurn a CD or if you have Internet access, which will send to you, Samsung.

This product runs without problems on Blu-ray, and from non-European music, DVD and CD-ROM. I found no problem, and multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible for him. It's also done an excellent job of showing plain DVD on my 40 "TV, where my previous DVD BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc is only part of the screen.

A clever touch is documented, and thatsearch for the correct selection of TV input, once a disc is inserted. It can help to ensure that the TV and a Samsung.
I have this on Nov.30, 2007 and, unlike other reviewers, have said something, the BD-P1400 will not start again where you left off. Everything else looks and works well.

They edit this review March 13, 2008, to reflect my experience with the device. I think, if a DVD Back to the Start, stop where it is depends on how the DVD was produced, not the BD-P1400 Blu-RayDisc Player. Some DVDs, like "Lost Season 3", even chapter / scene-makers at them, not to mention the possibility to restart the system after a crash.

Some DVDs, like "3:10 to Yuma", actually a separate system for the identification, when you stop or where you want to go back, but otherwise need to start from scratch. But do not start some new DVD, when he stopped.

My main complaint with Blu-Ray (not necessarily with the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc in particular) that it takesFOREVER to start, for a DVD, so if you play a DVD that is not where you restart more, you must go through the painfully long boot again.

I have not stopped to watch a DVD, which has learned to turn off the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc, after a few minutes ago. Instead, I think it's about 1 / 8 speed, then when I get back, I can simply go back to where I was - much faster than starting a new one.

If there is a better BR BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc anywhere near that priceArea, I have never heard of. Now that HD DVD is dead, I hope that the DVD manufacturers will focus their attention on DVD BR make work easier and faster.

It 'a great player. The only problem is to update the firmware. I used the method to burn CD-R/RW ... The most simple and fast. Burn *. ISO image with Nero Burning ROM software. The instructions are in support [...]/. I have both HD DVD and Blu-ray. regarding Blu-ray is better. HD DVD seems upconverted. Read the instructions exactly does the newBlu-ray "Live Free Die Hard," contains a note to allow the upgrade of the software can be obtained.

Finally, I remember this is compatible with HDMI 1.3 ... Take maximum advantage of 1.3 features, you need a cable-TV and the HDMI 1.3 compliant .... the picture is great. Buy this disc player BD-P1400 Blu-ray and update the software immediately.

I have read and continue to numerous complaints about the different Blu-ray and HD-DVD BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player s view is that people do not work as hoped. Ican say that with this model, I had absolutely no problem.

I am sure that some people are saying that is not loaded or not do this, but it was not for me. I have a single CD, which did not perform perfectly. What people have to remember is that today is all like a computer, you can upgrade, is a part of life today, get on it.

Will produce at some point this impeccable, probably yes, but in the meantime, Ilike my movies now. If you're an early adopter, as I am on technology that all the cases the points that you can run in, not a big problem. The BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc Player is easy to install, easy to play and loads very quickly. Glad I bought it and even thought of a second in different rooms.

Satisfaction for this product. Greatly improved my normal DVD. I was really surprised about this statement, but the Samsung is not as advertised. The Blu-ray disc audio is very good.Can not wait until this mountain with my new surround system.

This product is good money for your viewing pleasure, there are printed. I recommend this product.

For the price is a steal. The video and audio quality here is great, quality and choice of Blu-ray is top notch and we are pretty sure that will always be in Blu-ray for many years to come. One of the best options for a specific BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc, if you are not interestedin the PS3.

Before deciding to buy my Samsung BD-P1400, I have learned many of these reviews, and have been very useful. I also read a special AV Science Online Forum on this model BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player. First, all the information and reviews highlight the endemic problem that the application of the new Blu-ray is gradually occurring. Furthermore, the functions are developed, which means that we all take a chance, if you buy all theBlu-Ray BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player (which is not) a PS3.

I personally have no interest in holding a video game console. Secondly, many of these reviews are described in meticulous detail the nature of the problems people are, and whether and how problems are solved. This review adds to the data of this second category - the practical problems.

It was when my BD-P1400 Blu-ray was the first thing I downloaded the latest firmware installedSamsung website. Propose the method that uses a CD instead of a direct connection to the network, in both cases, instruction manuals and the website complete offer. * Be sure to confirm that the update was successful, * a restart of the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc, re-insert the firmware CD, and comparing the disco version of the installed version.

What are the problems I have done? Observed in a month for Netflix discs I have not had a single hiccup, not a single blue screen, do not play a refusala BD or SD DVD, the others have had problems with - I have * not * perfect performance! Although some of the other criticisms, such as slow controls related to technology. But my BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc is flawless and my expectations were exceeded. Without hesitation, I give my BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc five stars.

Pros: My favorite feature by far, the 24 frames per second output mode. Film display exactly as they weredetermined - good or bad - and "jerky" in scenes to rotate slowly improved significantly compared to 30 FPS. Only this, in my opinion, justifies the price relatively low. [A direct comparison with my 50 "plasma TV, the video quality of movies from BD-P1400 significantly higher at 24 FPS the same disk, if for advanced computer video cards, played with the same! Cost I] also features and layout of the remote control that doubles my Samsung TV.Yes characteristics, these are basic in the Blu-Ray, but are applied with great competence.

Cons: Mine is a small one, I have a set-up feature that allows audio and video as each other are delayed by a selectable gain. This would allow for a perfect lip sync, if the age (ie slower) audio decoder / receiver, not HDMI 1.3 compatible. However, to my knowledge, this feature is * not * be offered all the new Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray DiscPlayer, as containing the HDMI 1.3 standard, a feature of automatic synchronization, when all components are HDMI 1.3 compatible.

Maybe I was lucky, but I have no problem to build a''unique gameplay with the latest firmware latest. On the basis of this - 5 stars.

Hopefully, this model, Samsung will continue to support the further optimization of the operational firmware, if necessary.
"Coming soon: Outstanding image quality --- my wife and I say, even forStills, "Polaroid" Breathtaking.

The device has the necessary connections. I play through a Yamaha AV-Tuner with 7.1 channels via HDMI, but other connections.

There is a simple blue-on-ring-off and open a drawer-button closure, the control board. The remote has several levels of complexity is easy to find and use the force pause-play-rewind-fast/slow controls will be used for 99% of the time. The remote alsoMovie menu provides controls (eg, language), the player controls and menu options --- to learn to control other devices that use them only if and when you need it. There was absolutely no organization --- not Plug and Play! Neuro-Great ergonomics, ie, intuitive user experience.

In more than three weeks of regular use, we found some problems, but it is unclear whether the player himself or the new technology. Several times the device has gone into "sleep" mode, as if the button is pressed, I waswas to beat the "Play" to get the film, once again. A little 'annoying.

What do I want? Perhaps the controls for the AV amplifier so even if the device all the buttons for the TV, the players and amplifiers are needed. Perhaps better backlighting on all keys. This is a hell of a game it is recommended that the desire for Blu-ray.
Good BluRay DVD. Easy to use. High-definition DVDs look great, but regular DVDs look better.

No problems yet to be found.

Samsung1400 is significantly better than the Toshiba HD-A3. The BD-P1400 supports not only TrueHD, DTS-HD MA bitstream output, but via HDMI. The A3 can only extract the core DTS "and can not bitstream DTS-HD MA out. Only the HD-A35 and the XA2 can do, but also much more expensive players. The BD-P1400 is also full 1080p/24 video output, while the A3 can only send 1080i and does not support 24fps output.

Both are slow to load, but the A3 is much slower,And almost 2 minutes to warm up the players and the video display on the monitor / screen. The PS3 has less than 30 seconds btw. The A3 is also very strong, very confused, because there is a squealing noise that is difficult to ignore.

Overall, the BD-P1400 is supported with a Blu-ray high-functioning stand-alone player, output lossless audio (PCM, TrueHD and DTS-HD MA), and 1080p/24. I would recommend another four hundred U.S. dollars in the PS3 BD-P1400, but if you really want aStandalone Player, you can not go wrong with the BD-P1400.
I do not actually own this player, but I have a friend, bought, and he loves it.

This is a great Blu-Ray and I am very pleased with my purchase, I recommend this player for all and the price is great.

It lasted not disappoint at all. I have no problems playing a DVD, Blu-ray or not. I have not yet set for the downloading of software to solve any problems. The BD-P1400 works straight out of the box. TheThe only thing that comes close is that with a start-up and store slow.

I am very happy with this player and I am happy. I make my relationship is that it has worked so far and I have recommended to many of my friends, when asked for an opinion.

Works wonderfully with my new Samsung plasma ... They expressed no problem with other guests. Connected with a HDMI to TV and digital home theater audio ... Breathtaking PQ and sound.

The Blu-RayPlayer is first class. Easy Setup. This is my first Hi-Def player, and I am very happy with my purchase. I have the latest firmware update in accordance with the instructions in the manual, and it was working properly. The player has a modern, smooth and shiny. The sounds are incredible, and the images are too beautiful to describe. Very easy to install and use. I never understood the difference that a Blu-ray can do in the movies. I'm no expert, just a normal motherthe Blu-ray for the family just bought.

I have this player for about a month he had ... After upgrading the firmware, was perfect. Amazing picture, quiet unit that looks good in the entertainment rack with my HD-DVD.

The upconversion is wonderful! Best part is, I can optical applications and to benefit from the new audio codecs.

Player I give this 5 stars!

Is not a unique problem. Should I open it in a tight spot with 2 "clearance on top andOnce again without overheating problems. None of my films have been closed or not to play in this situation. I tried the Live Free or Die Hard, all Harry Potter, Planet Earth and others. 1.5 firmware has arrived January 24, and seemed to have fix all the problems were, among others. I would definitely recommend this player to others.

I have a PS3 and a 300-S Sony Blu-ray, and both are excellent Blu-ray. But, I love my new Samsung BD 1400 audio decoding DTS-HD, andmakes for a wonderful movie watching experience. The first thing you should do a new owner, is a samusung.com Download the latest firmware update (is) a rapid procedure, simple. There are also references to the manual explains how to update the reader. I got the latest Blu-ray Disc releases from Fox, Disney, Sony, etc., and the image and sound quality is excellent observed. Very satisfied with the product.
