Samsung BD-P1000 Blu-Ray Disc Player
This player is capable, where's the software?
I've had more so-so experiences that good ones with the BD-P1000, but the good ones suggest that the problems are more with the software than the BD-P1000.  <br /> <br />Most of the first blu-ray releases have been better than regular DVDs but not up to HD standards. However, when playing blu-ray discs like Terminator and Terminator 2 I get a picture that tells me that, with the write software, the BD-P1000 can provide a picture comparable to HD-DVD. <br /> <br />If there was better software and a lower price I would rate the BD-P1000 four stars. I could not give it five stars becuase I think the Toshiba HD-A1 does a much better job upscaling standard definition (SD) DVDs and even if the BD-P1000 meets the HD-A1 in HD material it will still fall behind the HD-A1 with SD DVDs.
