I have a PS3, half the reason I got one,a nd it works fine. The remote is definitly a worthwhile purchase... -

PS3. I got it cause it was cheaper than any blueray player at the time... and then I got the game station with it. So it completely made sense to do that.Comment

Did someone say PS3 already?Comment

I know the PS3 has the upgradeable firmware, which is something most of the original models didn't have. I'm not sure if the newer ones are updateable or if they just come with the upgraded firmware.
Seems TrueHD is possible, but it takes a little bit or work:
http://blog.webjak.net/2008/03/01/do...-hd-ma-on-ps3/
Anyway, I digress. Long story short PS3 does have TrueHD and other HD audio format abilities, its just that it cannot output them in a raw format (bitstream). So what you have to do is go into the Bluray settings in the PS3 settings menu, and select PCM. PCM is a base digital format which is lossless and all the other good stuff you simply must have these days if you are ever to have sex again (or for you audiophiles out there, for the first time). The PS3 internally transcodes the TrueHD etc to PCM. Once this setting is enabled, the OSD on the TV says TrueHD!! Yaay.Comment

In the bedroom we have a samsung.. and it's on a plasma, and totally worth it.. and fine
When the samsung was on the DLP out in the living room, honestly it wasn't as crisp as it should have been...
And then in the living room, we now have the real sony blue ray...
You can get them online right now.. on some places for like $299... with a $100 giftcard.. I think hubby said MacMall had some right now for that special.

I'd be willing to bet that the reason there is so many PS3 owners here is
because they bought early.
The PS3 was certainly the best bargain in the beginning as it was cheaper
than most stand alone players AND you got the gaming.
Today you can get a blu-ray player for under $200 or half the cost of the PS3
and many of the high end players that perform as good or better than the PS3
are also going for less than the PS3. So now you are actually paying more
for the gaming aspect of the PS3 when choosing it as a blu-ray player.
The one I'm looking at is Panasonic BD35k and the BD55K is great as well
depending on what receiver you have to hook it up to.Comment

I love my PS3

i picked up the Panasonic Blu-Ray for $299 or less.
has SD card slot so you can view your digital camera pics on it.
picture quality of blu-ray is amazing. just bought wall-e and will be watching it this evening.
you could go with an LG or Samsung that allows for netflix streaming, but i read the fine print that netflix streaming was "near dvd" quality if you had a fast connection...and after seeing blu-ray (and HD), not going back to DVD, so definitely not needing to stream less than DVD quality, so wasn't a requirement.
my comcast has a decent amount of HD free movies.
Netflix has over 1,000 blu-ray titles..costs you $1/month extra..but definitely worth it
I was thinking PS3..but all the good games are on Xbox 360, so didn't seem worth the extra expense.

have you heard TRUHD sound by anychance?
im thinking of just buying it capable for now just for future, or i may hold off entirely decisions decisions!
i want HD badly because on my projector it will make a HUGE difference on a screen the size. i heard HD really only has a point over 50"+Last edited by MetaMan; 11-19-2008, 09:03 PM.Comment

It's been said already, but the PS3 is one of the best BluRay players you'll get.

ps3 hands down because it plays H.264, DIVX and a host of other formats and will likely add more in the future.Mike South

i have been researching like a fucking madman and so far i like:
Onkyo HT-S6100
http://www.us.onkyo.com/model.cfm?m=...ss=Systems&p=i
im going to go with this and then get a separate blu-ray player then plug the blu ray into my receiver then i dont have to worry about full 7.1 because it is capable.
interesting also my projector is from 2007 but does not have HDMi but has VGA, so to beat to codec i have to purchase HD fury:
http://www.hdfury.com/
which basically tricks the reciever and player that it is HDMI compatable, my projector only goes up to 1080i but i read the difference between 1080p and 1080i is so small that your eyes cant tell. no idea if this is true or not i guess i will have to find out for myself.Comment
-
if you do not have HDMI for blu ray the palyer will chop the output in half so 1080 becomes 540, or will sometimes display a blank screen even.
that is why i need HD fury, you may have just said that im not to sure hehe.
and i def want to go with blu ray. all HDTV channels are going digital if they already havent also.Comment
-
What I'm saying is, you can do what you want with component video output as well, but you still need a convertor to go to your projector. Your projector should have came with a vga/component video adapter.
The component video outputs on a bluray player, outputs a 1080i signal.
The HDMI output, outputs a 1080p signal. If you cant use 1080p anyway, whats the point in using the 1080p output when you only need 1080i to begin with.
The red/green/blue cables on bluray = 1080i maximum.Comment
-
i re read it a few times and what i think you are saying is go blueray<---component<adapter>VGA-->projector.
and not use hdfury
(correct me if i am wrong i didnt 100% follow)
the thing with HDTV and BLU-RAY is it is HDCP encryption and evrerything down the line has to be HDMI capable or it cuts it in half.
so that means blu ray>reciever>projector, and that is where the HD fury comes in. it is pretening to be HDMI all the way down the line.
blueray<---HMDI<HDFURY>VGA<pretends to be an HDMI signal)-->projector.Last edited by MetaMan; 11-19-2008, 11:11 PM.Comment

yeah thats exactly how HDCP works, when using the digital output of a bluray player.
Component output is analog, not digital. That is why it is 1080i maximum.
My projection tv will not do 1080p, doesnt have HDMI input. I use component video output to it, and watch my bluray movies in 1080i.Comment

PS3 you can also stream movies from your computer....xvids, bluray rips ect.Comment
-
and to note now that i think about this on TrueHD for sound you need HDMI as far as i know so HDFURY would be needed for the movies as is for what i am looking for as a fully equiped system.Comment
