She aint you NETFLIX is a cinch to setup, and plays

She aint you NETFLIX is a cinch to setup, and plays flawlessly for me on DSL connection. Love the fact that I can add NetFlix movies to my queue online and they instantly appear on my TV queue. Navigation is so intuitive and instant, I didn t even open the manual and had it set up and was she aint you all the online content within 5 minutes. ONLINE RADIO I love being able to listen to streaming online radio, especially on this device. It also has TONS of channels and content from NPR, National Public Radio in subjects on science/tech/books/music/health/nation/arts/news and more. You can listen to tons of podcasts as well and even audio books! I haven t checked out all streaming options yet, but I counted 25 options to choose from for streaming content from the internet, that s a great selection! FIRMWARE UPDATES is easier than you can imagine, just navigate to NETWORK/Upgrade Firmware/and it does the rest. And it automatically notifies you if there is an update so you don t have to worry about staying on top of it. YouTube plays great, although I hope a firmware update down the line will add some additional browsing features for YouTube. The DVD play buttons doubles as youtube controls such as fast forward, pause, play etc. USB port: Viewing pictures you have saved on a USB is a CINCH! I plugged in my USB and was viewing its content 20 seconds later. BLU-RAY naturally, resolution is phenomenal, must use HDMI cable of course. I assumed it would automatically set the highest resolution but I found I had to go into SETUP/Output Video Format to set it to 1080p instead of Auto, not sure if I needed to do that but I did. I am still discovering the great features of this player but am already 1000% percent satisfied with my purchase. Let s be honest. Most of us who take the time to review a product do so with little or nothing to compare it to. Honestly, this is my first Blue-ray player, and I m happy with it. It connects to my Samsung DLP 56 and puts out HD content beautifully. I find the remote easy to use and I found the set-up fast and easy, too. I did have to connect in order to download a program update before the player would run the Web content advertised. Meanwhile, the on-screen menus are simple and easy to understand. The player runs silently, and except for the loading of the very first Blue-Ray disc, the discs load fast. For some reason, the first disc took she aint you time to load. I m not sure if it was the disc Ingloriious Basterds or it was some BD thing that needed to be initialized. It now loads very quickly. It doesn t come with a wireless adapter or even an HDMI cable. It comes with a standard def. RCA red/white/yellow phono plug, which is just plain stupid because RCA phono plugs won t deliver HD content. So, plan to buy an HDMI connector and a wireless adapter. After reading reviews and comments I skipped the wireless adapter and hardwired the player into my router with the ethernet cable. Also, make sure you get a high speed or better hdmi cable. Not all hdmi cables are created equal. The unit doesn t have a great deal of rear panel connectivity. None of them have much. You have the phono plug RCA outputs, an ethernet connection, an optical digital audio output, a flash memory connection, a USB input on the front panel, component out, and the HDMI output.
