LG BH100 High-Definition HD DVD/Blu-ray Player

Product Description

LG's BH100 High-Definition HD DVD/Blu-ray Player is the easy way to deal with the "format wars" between HD-DVD and Blu-ray. The LG BH100 plays both, letting you experience both of these exciting new high-def formats with one convenient player. It also outputs the picture to a compatible HDTV in top-of-the-line 1080p resolution, for incredibly lifelike, ultra-detailed images. The player also includes decoders for two advanced new surround sound formats - Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD. DOn't get rid of your DVD collection just yet, either -- the BH100 also plays and upconverts regular DVDs as well. Stereo and 5.1-channel audio outputs Coaxial and optical digital audio outputs BD-Java interactive capability Includes multibrand remote control (works for most TVs) Dimensions(WxHxD) - 16-15/16 x 3 x 11-15/16

1 out of 5 stars Won't let you play Special or Bonus Features on HD-DVD Discs!.......2007-09-25

None of your HD-DVD disc's special-bonus features can be played on this unit. ONLY THE MOVIE ITSELF! In fact, the title menu will not even appear when playing an HD-DVD disc.

YOU WON'T LEARN THIS THROUGH THE PRODUCT SPECS!

You can buy a regular $250 HD-DVD Player and it will play all of the features just fine, but this $1,000 unit won't! Go figure. Contacted LG, Customer Service Department, who said that they never obtained permission from Toshiba to allow this unit to play the special or bonus features on you HD-DVD disc.

So all you get for your $30 spent on an HD-DVD IS THE MOVIE...YOU FORFEIT THE INTERACTIVE MENU COMPLETELY!

This is an important detail LG fails to mention when advertising the product. An LG representative responded: "...well, we never said it COULD play the special features-interactive menu...why would we want to advertize that?" INDEED, WHY WOULD THEY WANT TO?

IN SHORT, THIS UNIT IS AN OVERPRICED BLU-RAY PLAYER THAT FUNCTIONS AS A "LIMITED" HD-DVD PLAYER.

Not recommended if you want to use the special/bonus features on your HD-DVD. Buying both HD-DVD and Blu Ray players would make more sense!

3 out of 5 stars Blu-ray Player that also supports HD DVD.......2007-06-28

My site was the first to give this product a full review back in February. I was impressed with LG for being the first to come out with this hybrid product. If your movie collection is primarily Blu-ray then this is a great buy for you. If it's the other way around, then do not buy this product.

The player does not support HDi interactive menu for HD DVDs. You don't get the whole experience when playing those discs on the BH100. The menu only display text, unlike when you play the same disc on a dedicated HD DVD player.

The player also has problem outputting at 1080p. I thought I was able to achieve this at one point but now I am not so sure. The highest it would go is 1080i.

The DVD upconversion is like opening a box of chocolate -- you never know what you're gonna get. Some good, some bad. I tried Finding Nemo on it and it looked really bad.

One more thing, you can't play audio CDs on this $1000+ high-definition player.

3 out of 5 stars check out compatibility issues before you buy.......2007-05-19

This appears to be a nice unit so far but I was very disappointed to learn that it is not compatible with Sony SXRD tv's (and perhaps others) that accept only 60hz signals for 1080p. With my KDS-50A2000, i will only be viewing in 1080i. Bummer! Still, I suspect the difference is subtle at best and being able to play both BluRay and HD DVD's is a massive advantage.

    Adtran Expansion Module For Tsu Or Tdu Provides Dsx-1 Signal For Pbx Appls

    Product Description

    The DSX-1 Module is one of several expansion modules for the TSU multiplexer. This module should be selected when a standard DSX-1 interface is required, such as a connection to a PBX. The DSX-1 interface is provided on both RJ-45C and DB-15 physical and electrical interfaces providing DTE distances to 200 m. The module is designed to be inserted into a slot of the TSU multiplexer. Configuration occurs from the front panel of the TSU or the optional T-Watch Management software. Framing and coding can be set independently from the Primary T1 interface of the base TSU multiplexer. This allows the interface of older PBXs running SF framing to ESF facilities. Monitoring, performance requests and testing functions are also done from the front panel or T-Watch software.

              I did my research on this product and found it to be exactly what I was looking for. I have run out of space for additional cards on my system and this card combines USB 2.0, Firewire, and RJ45 onto one card. Great card and Amazon had the best price that I could find online.
