Best Bluray burner for BD-R, and best Blu-ray disc player?
Along these lines so since we are stuck with Blu-ray, Admin, Lordsmurf or others, what are the better Blu-ray players and blu-ray burners(lower priced)?
I have read a lot but have no idea, it seems that the Panasonics make the better players and Pioneer makes the best burner. So I am thinking maybe the Panasonic DMP-BD75 or DMP-BDT210. Then the Pioneer new model is 206 but there seems to be 2 or 3 (sub-models) with that model name. On all new model Blu-ray players for 2011, the component inputs have been done away with...further anticopy protection probably the doing of Sony and Hollywood. But the new models supposedly have faster startup time over last year models. I guess I can live without the component inputs but still don't like idea and I don't like to be limited. Any comments or thoughts on this would be appreciated. |

You're pretty much on task with those selections. [8~2] Blu-ray burners: For the the best BD-R burner, look at the BD-R computer drives made by Pioneer.
Variations in model letters are often due to one of these reasons:
Blu-ray players: At this point in time, I firmly believe all Blu-ray players are the same. Sure, fans of units will naysay and disagree. Reviewers would do the same, as my comment would make their reviews look pointless. But in all honesty, most standalone Blu-ray players act the same. Unlike DVD players, where readers tend to vary wildly, we're still in a fairly early era of Blu-ray, where most all players are being made by name brand companies. In fact, due to the low saturation of Blu-ray in general, it may always be that way -- just like it was with Laserdisc. Buy the player you want based on its features -- i.e., streaming playback (Netflix, MLB, etc), MKV on USB, etc. I don't see problems with either of these:
Not that being the previous model is a bad thing. I don't equate old to bad, or new to good. Age is separate from quality, when discussing many products. In fact, I may get myself that BD75 model. For $89, full BD-R playback support, and the MKV on USB function, I'm tempted. :) If you have more questions, just ask. |
Went ahead and ordered the Panasonic 310 and Pioneer 206 through your links.
One thing about Panasonic and JVC manuals....I downloaded the manuals on the Panasonic bluray models to check everything out and found out the manuals look similar in writeup as JVC stuff. It must be a requirement of JVC and Panasonic that the author of these manual needs to be drunk while writing them up. Besides putting all pertaining info on the same page and same sections, they pepper the info all over the manuals and it makes it more challenging to find what one is looking for. My problem is I was sober while reading it, perhaps next time I need to get loaded so it will make better sense. That is one thing I have never understood about instructions and manuals....why not be straightfoward? Anyway, I don't think I will have any problems hooking up the Panasonic bluray player or using the settings. Hopefully I will be able to burner going without too much difficulty. I can do the physical part of installing it, do I need to be aware of any settings in the bios pertaining to the burner? |
