Who needs a movie theater with crying babies and ringing cell phones when you can have your very own high definition experience in the comfort of your home?

The Samsung Bd-p1200 is nothing short of a Blu-ray miracle. It is a solid Blu-ray player with variable video upconversion, multiple outputs including HDMI, Digital Optical and A/V Composite and S-Video, and it includes an Ethernet port for downloading upgrades. Like all Blu-ray players the Samsung Bd-p1200 supports many media discs including all forms Blu-ray disc, DVD, DVDR, DVD RW, CD, CD-R and CD-RW. It does not have WMA or Divx support.

Users and critics agree that the Samsung Bd-p1200 has excellent upconverting capabilities and all standard DVDs tested on the machine looked wonderful. Some common criticisms include the machine’s sensitivity to dirty or scratched discs and sometimes glitchy load times. Many were also disappointed that the Bd-p1200 does not include high definition audio support through Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master.

The Samsung Bd-p1200 is a great second generation Blu-ray player for those looking for a great picture and high definition experience in the comfort of their own home.

The Samsung BD-1200 provides a high definition image equal to the best Blu-ray players I have tested. Its SD DVD performance sets a new standard for Blu-ray players. If you desire a Blu-ray player and don’t feel the need for the features the player lacks
