Carry on camping Turns out

Carry on camping

Turns out there is a setting for 1080p/24 for true 24 fps that was on, but my television doesn t support it. Still not sure if that was the default or not which would not be a good choice, but either way the support line could not help me. Took me a day to figure it out. Also, as reported by someone else here there can be problems with NetFlix. In my case, it happens when trying to view NetFlix videos that are in HD. When I tried to watch an HD movie, the system carry on camping stops and re-buffers the stream. This never happened with my Roku after watching dozens of movies. The second one I tried worked fine, so there s a chance it was my cable connection, not the player. Despite these two issues, the player was easy to get set up, the blu-ray picture is awesome, and the Internet resources are a huge bonus. I waited a long time to upgrade to Blu-Ray. After reading several reviews for the Sony BDP-N460 and other players, I quickly realized this was not going to be a simple plug and play like the old DVD players. Three very important aspects and concerns of owning a Blu-Ray player became evident. 1st: Whichever Blu-Ray player I purchased would need a firmware or software update. 2nd: A connection to the internet for updates and on-line content. 3rd: Memory in form of a USB flash drive for refresh and BD live. The Sony BDP-N460 Blu-ray Disc Player is as close to plug and play I could have hoped for, and at a great price. I had no problem with the hook up to the internet. Updates/Firmware where a carry on camping to install, and on-line content is amazing. Though Sony recommends using 1GB USB flash drive or greater, I went to 16GB. I ve had little or no buffer time, saves and continues from any point on the DVD/Blu-Ray and plenty of room for BD-Live. So far no problems playing my old DVD s or Blu-Ray. The only real drawback to the Sony BDP-N460, it does NOT provide a wireless connection to the internet, you will need a category 5e cat5e cable or a wireless bridge. For that it should get 4 stars, but not for the ease of use and hook up I am conceding Practically Remote is of no use. Box was actually wider than projected/expected. I mainly purchased the Sony BDP-N460 player for its streaming video capabilities and to replace a previous generation Sony Blue-ray player. Prior to my purchase, I considered the Apple TV or integrating an Apple Mac carry on camping into my entertainment system. I concluded a streaming video-enabled Blue-ray disc player would offer simplicity and versatility for my entertainment needs. Streaming video content is definitely where the industry is headed. Blue-ray start up and playback meet my expectations, and the user interface is acceptable, however I wish there was a feature item to allow the user to manage which streaming video gadget icons are displayed on the Home screen. Other than that minor quibble, I find the user interface intuitive and functional. My streaming video content experience has been exceptional with this player. Video on-demand from Amazon and Netflix is more cost-effective for me since I prefer to watch programming and movies when I want to. The Sony BDP-N460 was easy to activate with video on-demand content providers and was watching Dexter within 20 minutes of unpacking the player, swapping out the previous Sony player with the new one, setting my preferences, and activating video streaming from Amazon and Netflix. The performance of the BDP-N460 in this regard is excellent. I have a premium Comcast Internet service and consistently measure download speeds averaging 12000 Kbps, as tested at dslreportsdot com. The bigger your Internet pipe, the less likely you ll experience download performance issues. Your total viewing experience is dependent on the weakest link in your streaming video system. If you have a fast Internet connection and you confirmed your download speeds are in the neighborhood of 8000-12000 Kbps and you experience choppy video, it s not necessarily the player s fault. In most cases, the problem is on the network side of the streaming video content provider. For my situation, having a one-DVD out at a time Netflix account with unlimited streaming video and renting/purchasing video content on demand from Amazon, I can watch what I want, when I want, and can just say no to cable and satellite TV.
