By J. Potter TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
I don't have a lot of Blu Ray movies I have to say. Being over 40 I once had an extensive video collection that got replaced with my extensive widescreen video collection, which got replaced with my extensive DVD collection, which was supplemented by my DVD collection with directors commentaries and extras. I am very reluctant to go out and create an extensive Blu Ray collection.

So a Blu Ray player was never going to be about just playing Blu Ray discs. It had to offer a lot more. The obvious is 3D and I will say up front, I don't have a 3D TV and no desire to own one. I simply got this player because: The great price; I like LG's attitude to making technology work; The players wide support for my existing collection of DVD's and its ability to watch or listen to just about ANY kind of digital media I have stored on my home PC's.

This players versatility is its real strength. I can marvel at the great quality of Serenity and Rambo First Blood Blu Ray disks, wonder at the panorama of Dark Knight Blu Ray and then switch to my home media server and watch any one of the 200 DVD's I have (legally purchased) and ripped to my home server. I can listen to music, slideshow my home pictures and watch the episodes of Dexter and Lost I previously downloaded from the network. The LG makes this whole process extremely easy and is very logical.

The great benefit is that it will do its best, and I have to say it does a great job, of making the comparatively low resolution DVD image look like HDMI. My benchmark for this is watching 9, a wonderfully colourful animated movie. It looks visibly better played through the LG than it does anywhere else.

The player has support for the 1080P standard although you have to enable this. This will improve the HD picture in some scenarios although its benefits over 1080i are subtle. The navigation of the player menus are extremely easy and very easy on the eye. Lots of curved bouncy icons that make navigation a real pleasure.

Network connectivity is achieved either via WiFi which is easy to setup, or by just plugging in a network cable to the port at the back. Which of course must be connected to your home network.

The only downside? There is a USB port at the front for watching media you have on a USB flash drive. This works well but disrupts the very stylish look of the unit, sticking out and holding the front cover open. Not a problem really unless you want to permanently want to connect a bigger USB drive as the USB cable would hold the cover open the same. A very small winge.

So even without using the 3D, at this price, if you have DVD discs, Blue Ray discs and any kind of digital media stored on your PC's at home, that you want to watch on your main TV. Then I very highly recommend this.

Hope the review was helpful.

Very Impressed 15 Oct 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
Have had this for six months now. It does everything it says on the tin.

Pros:
Plays avi, xvid, divx, mkv, mp4, mp3 happily, in all variations that I have thrown at it.
Can all be played from USB Flash Drive, External Hard Drive or 'Data' DVD.
Good menu system.
Sensible, nice to use remote control.
Regular updates to keep up with current media formats.
Can download Blu-ray Extras straight to USB Flash Drive.
Works great through BT Home Hub 3 to my computer, for streaming.

Minor Con:
No BBC iplayer.

Overall a very nice compact, neat looking bit of kit that works very well.

I was lucky enough to win this player, a 3DTV and a Bluray Surround system, so I can't gripe too much here. This is a very nice player with some great features. I linked mine to my router with an ethernet cable and was able to play most of my downloaded films through the player. Once connected you have Google, Picassa and Weather at hand and you can plug in external drives with media on if you don't want to stream from a PC. It played everything I threw at it from Divx, MKVs and AVI files plus a good few back-up DVDs on Datawrite DVDR Single and dual layer discs. It also played original Blu-rays and 3D Blu-rays with ease too.

Now here's the rub! It struggles with Blu-Ray R and RE discs. i wanted to archive my home movies to Blu-Ray and got a writer for my PC and some free 25GB Blu-Ray RW discs and I have Avatar 3D on a Dual Layer Blu-ray. This player stutters, stumbles and fumbles with any of these. This includes picture break-up, skipping or repeating scenes and freezing for 20-30 seconds before restating. i got 25 mins into Avatar 3D and it jumped back to the start.

In the end I sold this player and got another brand one that plays all discs fine!

A good player, Very good Wi-Fi,but let down by slow to start up, and is very finicky with different types of disks, I'd give it 5 stars if it would play all disks the same
