Better picture than even the Oppo!

I'll post something on its performance in a day or so.

Yes, I try to support local businesses when I can.

- How good is the zoom, pan, and single-frame? - bassbinotoko 11:23:34 05/24/12 (0)
  Even though I've got 4 other things connected that can play (and upscale) DVDs, I still use the Sony DVP-NS75H HDMI DVD player because nothing else is as good for zooming in to see more details, or single-framing to see how an effect was done. The only quibble is the zoom steps are too coarse; there's no zoom level that's suitable for "un-windowboxing" a non-anamorphic DVD.
  
  So, I'm curious how well (or if) this Sony Blu-ray player implements those features.

So you're saying that Sony has *finally* undone all the built-in video flaws that *all* their other BDPs have? [I have one now and have had other Sony BDPs.] Gotta see this...I don't for a second believe it though.

We'll see what the pros say, these flaws are measurable for those who can't see them - there's a huge range of display capability/setup = another problem for casual reviews from unknowns (least to me).

  I don't own a Sony player--I have two other brands--but out of curiosity, what are these flaws??

Comments on AVs look very promising also. It looks like a winner. Thanks for the link.

  As soon as I get the awards for those patents I've been crowing about, I'll get one.

Just a continuation of CD-ROM technology - jedrider 09:19:44 05/02/12 (3)

So, nice review. I'll wait until Blu-Ray discs come down in price.
- such a sad commentary - Joe Murphy Jr 09:09:14 05/03/12 (1)
  You can get numerous Blu-ray discs at WalMart for under $8 every day. There are often specials for $5.00 during the year. I got my daily email from newegg this morning and in it is a Toshiba Blu-ray player for $50.
  
  You sound like one of those people who want everything for free.

    Seems DVDs will be discarded soon at this rate. I'll be there!
- Boy, have you been missing out - Brian A 10:49:30 05/02/12 (0)
  Blue Ray has a much better picture, even than HD on TV. And the sound of the uncompressed audio is better too. Prices are at what DVDS were a few years ago. Why deprive yourself?
