Reviews of BLU-RAYBD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player (there are no differences in the basic specifications for the
A version of the region and region A and B version of multi-region, so that all grants are available for both versions.):
There is good: Excellent image quality on Blu-ray, great soundtrack support with onboard decoding of Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution and bitstream output for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, relatively low price for other standalone Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player overs; Ethernet port for firmware upgrade.
MDOJ,
My BD-P1400 has arrived late last night! The firmware was updated last night via the Internet to download and burn a CD. First impressions:
Video - !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Audio - !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FYI: There is no difference in picture quality or sound, or any other kind of difference, in the USA Region A version of the multi-regionRegion A and B version of the Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.
I tried a normal DVD and BRD so far and am very satisfied. Load
The times are very acceptable. No negatives from me on this unit so far. Will
Report later when I get some of BRD seems problematic.
The Samsung BD-P1400 is a classic style. The front of the car is all shiny black, with a thin strip of silver on the bottom.
Got my Samsung BD-P1400 last night and boy have beenexcited! Before this review, I would say this is the first and only Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-Ray, which I had and could not do some comparisons you are looking for is to start. If I do not, let me know! I would also say that they are not on the latest firmware, but as my modem can not be updated in near a television.
Image
Excellent, duh ...... inky blacks, great contrast, detail, everything you expect from Blue
Design: Beautiful looking BD-P1400 Blu-RayDisc, better yet, I think. Face is very open, not cluttered, and the rocks gloss piano. Good remote control.
Loading times wonderful. I have 5 movies so far, and all loaded in approx. 15 seconds. Then there was the new F4 Silver Surfer .... This is a BD + titles from Fox and many complain of their time to recharge. The BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player gave me no problem, and the multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible. Let me say once again that thisout of the box, no firmware update yet!
FYI: There is no difference in picture quality or sound, or any other kind of difference, in the USA Region A version of the Multi-region version A and B of the Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.
Sound
I have not played with the sound a lot when I was not even my Onkyo TX-SR705. I noticed that there is an option to set up your speakers from small to large 5.1-in analog outs. There are other threads and human relationsalways full DTS-MA bitstream from the BD-P1400 Blu-ray discs (after firmware upgrade) in other threads and forums. I am always eager to try this!
More
The rest of the stuff is pretty standard. 128x max forward position in the same unit again after the film out, pretty good response time of remote keys, etc.
All in all, this is a dynamite BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc. With the firmware update, is this guy doing something thata Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc can expect Player now!
In addition to Blu-ray discs allows the Samsung BD-P1400 plays DVDs and CDs in standard definition.

The BD-P1400 PBD-high-resolution soundtrack support is excellent. It has onboard decoding for Dolby Digital Plus,Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution, which means it can produce these soundtracks either in PCM format via the HDMI or analog outputs. For receivers, the BD-P1400 also offers bitstream output for high-resolution soundtracks. So if you have a receiver with a recent board Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, you can use the audio output on BD-P1400 HDMI in encoded bitstream format - just let your receiver does not decode, but the BD-P1400 Blu-Ray DiscPlayer.
There should be absolutely no difference in sound quality if the receiver is decoding or BD-P1400 Blu-ray decode, but some AV fans love it, the "Dolby TrueHD" light on their new receiver. If you have a code reader to freely convert DVD for $ 79.95 and must Planet Omni, which has come with two guarantees. So far I am very satisfied with this purchase. I was not sure if the right deal because of the negative reviews I've read, but boughtin any case.
I really do not know why people get upset when it only takes two minutes to play. I've rented several times, with Blu-Ray from Netflix with no problems. I'm still waiting for free on eight films.
Connectivity is also solid. There's an HDMI port with which both 1080p video and audio signals in high resolution.
For analog high-definition video, there is a component video output (limited to 1080i), and there is an S-video output and aOutput composite standard-def output. (Like all BD-P1400 Blu-ray, there is no way of upscaling DVD component video). On the audio side we have the HDMI output of the above, along with 5.1 channel analog outputs, two optical and coaxial digital outputs and analog stereo audio outputs.
Rounding out the connectivity is an Ethernet port, which allows you to upgrade the firmware from the Internet - a feature that is common to HD DVD player, but veryrare in Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.
FYI: There is no difference in picture quality or sound, or any other kind of difference, in the USA Region A version of the Multi-region version A and B of the Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.
The BD-P1400 did a good job with the opening credits of Star Trek: Insurrection, demonstrating its ability to pull down 2:03. Next up was Seabiscuit, and the BD-P1400 did a solid job, with the introduction difficult, with little or nojaggies on the black-white photos.
MDOJ,
Just a quick update on the Sammy BD-P1400. I rented from Netflix a few have enjoyed the BR and BD-P1400 - and you? All the techno-mumbo-jumbo aside, for me, this is a great BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc.
I hope that the head guys in charge of this forum is an adhesive to make the BD-P1400 Samsung - Note - Note! watch movies at home here ... not save.
The Samsung is a really goodUnits for the price. The multi-region version from Planet Omni only $ 849.95, and considering that the double motherboard specially imported, a fortune and hard work is a real big deal, IMHO costs need.
I had my device loaded directly plug in my modem with an Ethernet cable (for Samsung directions in the manual) and the BD-P1400 Blu-Ray disc, find the new firmware and burn it without the need of me on the hard drives of Computer ... etc.Very cool.
The Samsung has a great picture and I can update with the current DTS-HD Master Audio (Sony can not be said that twice the price!) To listen.
Think with the pace at which technology moves the self, it is very difficult for a manufacturer to produce these units, market reach and are very "present" with the technology of the new disc, (changed daily), but Samsung has provided me with a device, I just turned in my modem and get an update when youhave at their disposal. I think it's incredible.
A little 'patience and understanding can go a long way. After all ... It was not long ago that if you purchased an electronic component, you could not upgrade at all. I am sure that Samsung have an update soon. I have never in all the hard drives I could run and play as of yet.
Since I have never seen a 1200 in action, can not help you - but the BD-P1400 PQ is excellent, but that's what Blu is - right?
I have tried several BDfrom Netflix and a few standard-def DVDs. All were great. As for the handshake problem, I'm not really sure what it is .... and from the game, then what ... Why do you want to make a movie anyway?
Large BD-P1400 Blu-Ray, I could not be happier I have the new BD-P1400 last week. returned the 1200 to do so. (Plus had 100 price difference in my favor. PROS = is the image quality is by far the best I've seen, even better than my Panny.
The controls areeasy configuration and exactly the same thing. I do not like, the signal is lost at the beginning of the discs.
AUDIO = I am not in a position of my Onkyo audio features, a few years ago. I did it with an optical digital cable setup, the sound is very good, except for the POPS I get from time to time.
As for the BD potch have about 2 minutes, had no problems, and multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible, in other BD movies. I noticedthat after the break and hit me in the game is going to hit, the movie would play for a minute and then stop. I had to play, has struck again. A big problem.
Used the ethernet port for downloading new firmware you can not tell the difference. I'm sorry, are not technical, but control is my blue collar. No ?????? s I will answer as best I can
I just Casino Royale - spectacular!
I have a Playstation 3, which has great image quality for both Blu-Ray and upscaling of standard DVDsSince a software upgrade. We use this for our HD TV in the living room. I need another BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc for a second HDTV, we just had hung in our room.
I waited BD-P1400 will be available, because I've already committed to Blu-Ray and wanted the latest technology available. I can not say enough about the quality of sound that offers the BD-P1400 Blu-ray disc is amazing. The picture quality is excellent and the par with the Playstation 3 II'm seriously considering buying a second BD-P1400 to our series because of the excellent sound. Large BD-P1400 Blu-ray disc, especially for the price.
By far the best Blu-ray I've ever tried. Cartoons never see, but now I spend much time watching with my kids.
This is a great Blue Ray BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc. DTS HD MA bitstream at the end. I have this product for about two months in possession and I'm thrilled with it, is really a good deal. I only use my Blu RayPlay BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc for Blu Ray because the sound on a Samsung 5-Disc Receiver is directed. The picture quality is amazing. I own four Blu Ray (which I bought from Amazon for $ 14.99 per piece), the game is all beautiful, no problems, and the multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible, and a crystal clear picture.
I bought this BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc in December. I hooked with a HDMI cable to a Sony receiver. The Cable BoxComcast is also connected to the receiver. The receiver is a 42-inch Panasonic Plasma 1080P connected. Three HDMI cable, it is.
He perfectly from the start with all Blu-Ray we have tried worked. We get about a week from Netflix. Can I play the third Pirates of the Caribbean Not sure why other critics do not.
The picture quality is stunning, with the Planet Earth. I think I can usually deduct the Panasonic TV.
I have version 1.2 firmwareUpdate in December. I just got the 1.5 firmware update version 5 last February. I downloaded both and create the CD ISO.
For me it's work quickly. So, just wait until his second, so what? Get the DVD while you wait.
Most of the computer to start now require a few minutes. I guess there will never be better, worse, might be slower over time, as these are essentially computers, technology advances and more of these machines and the loadhigh
After I downloaded the firmware update, I checked my settings and I noticed that had been written off. If you have a digital receiver, make sure that the audio bit rate "and is not adjusted PCM, if you want surround sound.
I had no problem, and multi-region version from Planet Omni will be a game even more incredible, no DVDs or CDs regularly. So, if it becomes obsolete, it has replaced my other DVD BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc and improve the quality of regular DVDsput with my other older Samsung 720P.
I do not want to buy someone, why delay the format war. The moment you buy, and now, so it is obsolete and a shot at the end. At least, while you can enjoy, life is too short. At today's prices, what the hell, it's cheap to buy now before the dollar becomes worthless! You can get an entire home theater system 1080p HDMI-based system with speakers for less than $[...] hours. Thanks China! I have my HDMI cablefrom Planet Omni, $ 19.95 for 2 meters in length, image and sound great!
Before I joined this, I updated the firmware via the Ethernet port. Once that was done I have no problem, and multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible, installed with the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc. I was wondering whether to buy or not through some of the negative reviews, but the deal was too good to be for a stand-alone. Those of you who have had problems with the BD-P1400Blu-ray Disc have every right to complain, here's what those costs are.
However, (not BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc Player 2.0 yet), people complain that it is not 1.1 or 2.0 should cease. Nowhere in the description in there is the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc to be in 1.1. If you want to inform people who are there and updates the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc player is not able to benefit from going ahead of you, but to say that is horrible and useless, becauseHis 1.0 is misleading. I have a feeling that many people just want the film and rarely use the features of 1.1 (as the picture in picture commentary).
When you yourself, the BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc is perfect. If you need a 1.1 BD-P1400 Blu-Ray disks, get the Panasonic. For me it works well for the coming years, while the Blu-ray gets its act together and closes an emerging product. I hope those of you have had, may have problemsreleased and can now use the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc player like me.
I have no problem, and multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible, the Samsung BD-P1400-PBD. I put it in, connected to the Internet and started the firmware update utility. After about 20 minutes, the firmware update successfully and I played my first movie with no problems. Every film I've played since has been playing without problems. You can also update the firmwareBurn a CD or if you do not have Internet access, Samsung will be sent to you.
This product works best on Blu-ray, even non-European music in DVD format and on CD-ROM. I have not found a problem, and the multi-region version from Planet Omni will be even more incredible for him. He also does a superior job to clearly show DVDs on my 40 "TV, where would my current DVD BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc only ask to take part of the screen.
A touch of intelligence is undocumented andlook for the right TV input selector, when a disc is inserted. It can be useful if the TV and Samsung.
I have this on Nov.30, 2007, and despite what other critics have said, the BD-P1400 is to start again where you left off. Everything else looks and works great.
They change the review to March 13, 2008, to satisfy my experience with the machine. It seems to me, is because a DVD resume where it left off, as the DVD has been produced, NOT on the BD-P1400 Blu-RayDisc Player. Some DVDs like "Lost, Season 3", do not even have a chapter / scene-makers themselves, let alone the opportunity to start again after a stop.
Some DVDs like "3:10 to Yuma," is actually a separate system for marking where to stop, or if you want to be able to return, but still requires a start from scratch. But not to start some new DVD, which he stopped.
My main complaint with Blu-Ray (not necessarily with the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc in particular) is that it takesALWAYS leave for a DVD, then when you play a DVD, they have done, which is interrupted is restarted, go through the painfully long start-up again.
I learned not to pause a DVD, which caused us to turn off the BD-P1400 Blu-Ray disc after a few minutes. Instead, I think it's about 1 / 8 speed, then when I get back, I can easily return to where I was - much faster than a reboot.
If there is a better RB BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc, also close to this priceArea, I have not heard of. Now that HD DVD is dead, I hope that DVD Maker is your attention focused on the production of DVD BR job easier and faster.
This is a great player. The only problem is to update the firmware. I used to burn CD-R/RW method ... . Burning fast and easy *. ISO image with Nero Burning ROM. The instructions are in support [...]/. I have both HD DVD and Blu-ray. for Blu-ray is better. HD DVD seems upconverted. Read the instructions carefully, that the newBlu-ray "Live Free or Die Hard," contains a note that you know, the software update may be required.
Finally, remember that it is HDMI 1.3 compatible ... so in order to use 1.3 features, you need a cable-TV and the HDMI 1.3 compliant .... the image is large. Buy BD-P1400 Blu-Ray disk and a software update immediately.
I see that there are still many complaints about various Blu-ray and HD-DVD player BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player s does not work, as people hope. Ican say that with this model, I have absolutely no problem.
I'm sure some people write or do not load, but it influenced me. I do not have a single disc, which has not played, has found perfect. What people must remember is that these days everything is like a computer, you need to update it, is part of life today, get over it.
The manufacturer will at some point this clean, probably so, but in the meantime I will enjoynow my film. If you're an early adopter, as I am to be the technology, then all the questions you might run into, is not a big problem. The BD-P1400 Blu-Ray Disc Player is easy to install, easy to play and loads very quickly. Glad I bought and already thinking about a second for different room.
Complete satisfaction with this product. Greatly improved my regular DVD. I was really surprised by this statement, but the Samsung is not as advertised. The Blu-ray audio is very good. I can not waitThis engagement with my new surround system.
This product is money well spent for the viewing pleasure it gives. I recommend this product.
For the price this is a bargain. The video and audio quality here is excellent, the quality and selection of Blu-ray top quality and you can be pretty sure you'll ever make Blu-ray format for you for years to come. One of the best options for a dedicated BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc if you are not interested inPS3.
Before deciding to buy my Samsung BD-P1400 I have studied many of these comments and have been very useful. I also read a special AV Science Board of the BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc. First, highlight all the information and customer reviews on endemic problem that the implementation of the new Blu-Ray standards be done gradually. In addition, functions can be developed, which means that we are all on some occasions when you do not buy Blu-Ray BD-P1400Blu-Ray (not a PS3).
I personally do not have the slightest interest in owning a gaming console. Secondly, many of these reviews describe in detail the type of problems that people, as well as whether and how the problems have been overcome. This criticism fits the data, the second category - the practical problems.
When my BD-P1400 Blu-Ray was the first thing I did, the latest firmware from the Samsung website had to be downloaded.I suggest the method to a CD, but uses a direct network connection, however, the manuals and Web sites provide full instructions. Be sure to confirm that the update was * * successful restart the BD-P1400 Blu-ray disc, reinstalled the firmware CD, and compares the disk version, the version installed.
What problems do I have? In a month to watch Netflix discs do not have a single hiccup, not a single blue screen, no cancellations or play one of the BDSD-DVDs that have had other problems - I * only * perfect performance! Although some of the criticisms are other lenses like the controls inherent in the technology. But my BD-P1400 Blu-ray is fine and my expectations were exceeded. Without hesitation, I give my BD-P1400 Blu-ray Disc five stars.
Pros: My favorite feature by far is the 24 frames per second output mode. Movies appear as they were intended - that the goodor bad - "stupid" and slowly turn in the scenes is significantly improved at 30 frames per second. This alone, in my opinion, justify the relatively small price. [In a direct comparison with my 50 "plasma TV, the video quality of movies from the BD-P1400 at 24 FPS is much better than the slices themselves, if advanced computer graphics card, which has done the same cost!] I like functions and layout of the remote control that doubles to my Samsung TV. Yes, these basicFeatures of Blu-Ray, but they were very competent implemented.
Cons: My one is mean, I have delayed a set-up function, the analog audio and video over the other by an increase can be selected. This would make a perfect lip-sync when using older (ie slower) audio decoder / receiver that is not compatible with HDMI 1.3. However, as far as I know this feature is not available on * any * new Blu-ray BD-P1400 Blu-Ray, because the HDMI1.3 standard includes an automatic synchronization if all components are HDMI 1.3 compatible.
Maybe I was lucky, but there is no need to build a single problem "gameplay" with the last of the latest firmware. Based on this - 5 stars.
We hope that Samsung will continue to support this model for further optimization of the operating firmware if necessary.
Coming soon: "Polaroid" The exceptional quality of the image --- my wife and I say, even for photographs,breathtaking.
The unit is equipped with all necessary connections. I play a Yamaha V-Tuner with 7.1 channels via HDMI, but other connections are available.
There is a simple on-off blue rings and a button to open the drawer to close, which is to on-board control. The remote has several levels of complexity: it is easy to find and use the power, pause-play-rewind-fast/slow controls, which use 99% of the time. The remote also offers movie menu controls (egLanguage), the player controls and menu options to learn to control other devices --- to use them only if / when you need it. There was absolutely no structure to do --- Plug and play! Great neuro-ergonomics, ie, intuitive user experience.
In more than three weeks of regular use, we found some problems, but it is unclear if he is the player himself or the new technology. Several times the device is left in "sleep", as if the button is pressed, I had to "play" button to get the filmrestarted. Easily distracted.
What I would like too? Perhaps controls for the AV amp as well, even if the device has buttons for TV, DVD player and amplifier required. Perhaps best of all the backlit keys. This is one heck of a lot, recommended, those found in blue-ray.
Good BluRay DVD. Easy to use. High-definition DVDs look great, but regular DVDs look better.
No problem, have not been found.
Samsung 1400 is significantly better than the ToshibaHD-A3. The BD-P1400 supports not only TrueHD, DTS-HD MA bitstream output via HDMI, but. The A3 can only extract the DTS "core" and can not send bitstream DTS-HD MA out. Only the HD-A35 and the XA2 can do it, but both are much more expensive than this player. The BD-P1400 can also output full 1080p/24 video, while the A3 can only send out 1080i and does not support 24fps.
Both are just slow to load, but the A3 is significantly slower, with almost 2 full minutes of heatingPlayers and video on the monitor / screen. The PS3 has less than 30 seconds btw. The A3 is also very strong, distractedly so special because it is a high-pitched sound that is hard to ignore.
Overall, the BD-P1400 is a Blu-ray high-functioning stand-alone lossless audio (PCM, TrueHD and DTS-HD MA) and supports 1080p/24. I would still recommend the PS3 to $ 400 BD-P1400, but if you really want a stand-alone player, you can not go wrong withThe BD-P1400.
I do not really gamers, but I have a friend who has bought one and loves it.
This is an excellent Blue Ray and I am very happy with my purchase, I recommend this player at all and the price is great.
It did not disappoint in the slightest. I have no problems playing a DVD, Blu-ray or not. I have no firmware downloads to resolve any problems. The BD-P1400 is currently working out of the box. The only thing that comes close to a scam, is thatis slow start up and load.
I am very pleased with this player and I'm happy very happy. I can only say that for me is working perfectly so far, and I recommended it to many of my friends, when we asked for an opinion.
It works wonderfully with my new Samsung plasma ... They have not had any problems other reviewers expressed. Connected to a TV HDMI and Optical Audio Home Theatre ... Stunning PQ and sound.
This Blu-Ray is first class. Easy configuration. This is myHi-Def first player, and I am very happy with my purchase. I work for the latest firmware update in accordance with the instruction manual, and did it well. The player has a modern, sleek, shiny appearance. The sounds are incredible, and the images are too good to be described. Very easy to install and use. I never knew the difference that can be a Blu-ray to make the movie experience. I'm no expert, just a normal mom who bought the Blu-ray for the familyConsider.
I have this player for about a month now ... After the firmware update was fine. Framework amazing, quiet drive, looks good in the rack of entertainment with HD DVD player.
The upconversion is wonderful! Best part is that I can use optical and take advantage of the new audio codecs.
I give this player 5 stars!
Not a single problem. I also have in tight spaces with a 2 "space on the top and open at the back without overheating problems. None of myThe films were blocked or not to play in this situation. I tried Live Free or Die Hard, all Harry Potter, Planet Earth and others. Firmware 1.5 is coming January 24 and it seemed that all problems were fixed with the other. I highly recommend this player to others.
I have a PS3 and Sony S 300 Blu-ray, and they are both excellent Blu-ray. But, I like my new Samsung BD 1400 can decode DTS HD sound, and makes for a wonderful movie to seeExperience. The first thing a new owner should do is go to samusung.com and download the latest firmware update (it is a quick and easy process). There are also references to the manual, you know the update of the player. I have latest Blu-ray from Fox, Disney, Sony, etc., and the image / sound quality is observed perfectly. Very happy with the product.
