On the plus side, they decode (and also bitstream) most audio formats and have 7.1 analog outputs. The realta post processor should theoretically improve video performance, though at least one user on this forum has expressed disappointment: http://www.avrevforum.com/showthread.php?t=2264&page=2 I personally have not used either one. |
I agree and will not buy an other blu ray player that is not profile 2.0, it is like buying AV with HDMi 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 and now 1.3 You would have to make a new purchase every year!!!
