Overview

An Ethernet port linking the player to your home network feeds Internet@TV widgets, BD-Live content and AllShare streaming from a PC to the TV. The slim black player plays Blu-ray discs and DVDs and comes with a universal remote.

Choose it for a connected disc player that handles online widgets and your own media files on a plain HDTV. The apps named in the listing date from its era, and the unit is described as refurbished.

Who it's for

A living room with one HDMI TV, a home network and a PC full of media suits the DLNA streaming and BD-Live. Buyers wanting built-in Wi-Fi, a boxed new player or current streaming services should look at newer models.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Internet@TV widgets and apps
  • AllShare DLNA streaming
  • Plays Blu-ray Disc and DVD
  • Universal remote included
Cons
  • Wireless adapter not included
  • Listing describes a refurbished unit
  • Only one HDMI port
  • Widget app list reflects its original era

Performance notes

The player sends full high-definition video over HDMI and decodes HD audio formats. Network features run over the Ethernet port or the optional wireless link dongle, so weaker home networks mean slower app and BD-Live loading. AllShare pulls audio and video files from a DLNA-capable PC and plays them through the TV.
