That was an old story, invention of a codec DivX to somehow fit a standard movie into a single disc; that too in a disastrous quality compared to today's standards. Technology is racing as if it's on an F1 track. Now a single disc of that same physical size can hold the entire data a computer hard disk held few years back. Yes I am talking about blu ray technology. Thanks for some deep research; blu ray players have become so much affordable. Now you can get this incredible piece of technology without much burden. Latest face in blu ray market is 3d blu ray player. Here I'm going to give you blu ray player reviews which will help you in choosing a good one. Out in the market there are lots of models and brands of blu ray players available; every one works on the same technology, the difference is in its functions and features. Input/output As a person going for the latest technology you will have a good knowledge about it, for that reason this topic is worthy to discuss, also this is a feature which differ a lot between various models and brands. The more types of I/O ports a blu ray player have, the better compatibility it posses. HDMI port is essential for HD video connectivity and few of the latest models have more than one HDMI port. S-video, composite video and optical output is desirable. USB ports and SD card slots are also available in Blu ray players.

Video The only reason I put this second is that there is not much difference in this feature between various models. Almost all the models have 1080p HD output and many of them are capable of converting the standard DVD video into HD video which gives you better quality pictures from your DVDs itself. 3D blu ray players will have 3D video output; for that you will have to go for 3D blu ray disks too.

Audio Amazing sound effects as Dolby digital and Dolby DTS which you experienced in multiplex is available in your home too. Blu ray players come with 7.1 channel out, make sure that the model you are going to buy have this feature; you can go through blu ray player reviews for this purpose. In samsung blu ray player reviews I found that many of its models have this feature.

Dynamic range It's the difference between the strongest and weakest signal, it's given in decibels; It's better to have this value high.

Signal to noise ratio This compares the strength of the wanted signals as music or dialogs with the unwanted noise. Higher value of this ratio ensures better sound quality.

Features to look for Blu ray players are capable of streaming internet videos; for this purpose you need players with internet connectivity. You will see in many players Wi-Fi ready, but it doesn't ensure that the player is ready to connect to a Wi-Fi network, you may have to buy Wi-Fi card separately for it. Go through some blu ray dvd player reviews to know what all models have this inbuilt.

Price Never expect the costly blu ray player always have all the features. Sometimes you will not have to spend that much to get a player with all the features you require. Make sure the model you are about to buy have all the features essential for you.Johnlisarowntree (talk) 14:07, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
