IVaala Bestbuy lo BD 570 open box item 199 annaadu. Bargain chesthey inkaa taggisthaadu anukuntunnaa. Toseoyyochaa....

All my content is on my desktop. Desktop connected to wireless router running dd-wrt FW. So, I can make it a bridge if necessary.

But, BD570 kontey akkarledu kada??? Just another wireless terminal kinda connect avuthundi kada?

So, setup enti?

PC -> router -> BD570 -> TV aa?

PC lo Divx, Xvid, WMV kaakunda inkaa evevo format videos kooda unnaayi. Can I watch all those on my TV?

Almost most of the content on my PC is 'not' 1080p.


Confusion lo confusion, WDTV choosa. IDendo malli oka saari choodali.

Simba, post no 1144 tho, naaku konchem artham ayyindi.

Ripping is CPU intensive, so desktop performs better unless you have a core i5/i7 laptop.

Also, external hard drive ni NAS laaga cheyaali, do these players (WDTV live) have NAS capability? or daani kosam inkoti konaala?

Truelies:

LG bd570 vs samsung 6500. which one do you recommend?



I have LG BD-390 which works nice and expect the BD570 the same.

Features choosi, nenu last month samsung c6500 konna, but disappointed. Lot of media formats are not supported to play over network. Final ga samsung player return chesina. So, your choice should be obvious.

personally I don't recommend downloading any english movies. MPAA will knock your door sooner or later.

Nuvvu bluray rip chesukovalante, first netflix/blockbuster membership theesuko. Next, get a BD-ROM drive and use DVDFab to rip. Ripping is CPU intensive, so desktop performs better unless you have a core i5/i7 laptop.

Go with WDTV live and any basic bluray player, you could meet the budget.

Jalsa:

blu-ray player, media player
(like WDTV), blu-ray drive evi set cheyaalo



sare kaniy. I will give you pros/cons here

bluray player: plays bluray and other discs. most support netflix which is a big plus. very few support network media playback (LG/Samsung), but to limited formats. Youy home network could be a bottleneck. Difficult to upgrade firmware.

WDTV and similar: no disc playback. Can play most media formats, both local and networked. Easy to upgrade firmware and codecs. No netflix support. Can play bluray rips.

bluray drive on pc/laptop: plays all discs incl bluray. network playback possible for all formats. netflix supported. You can rip bluray discs yourself. The drawbacks are maintaining a dedicated pc/laptop, patching, security upgrades, waiting for boot ups etc.

Good deal but use caution. Looks at HTPC's and figure out which one is better. I would vote for HTPC any day. Naa gula koddi nenu dedicated machines undaale ani konukkunnaa okkoti.. its all injividual interest.

PS: As per simba, there are newer releases of EX models later this year. So, choosi..

brb after couple of hrs..
In this db, there's always someone watching you!!
