Kailangan ko pa ba ng Blu-ray player?
« on: Aug 22, 2013 at 09:07 AM »
I'm setting up a home system starting with a 3D/ SamrtTV which is a 47LA6910. Sabi sakin it can play MKV daw. Ngayon I'm thinking kung pwede na ba yung TV as source at dun na ako mag play parati ng 3D movies at FullHD (thru USB). Madedecode kaya nito ang magandang sound para sa 5.1?

If I ever I would need a separate player, since SmartTV ito, kailangan ko ba bilhin is BD player or yung ibang players like multi-media ba yun at home theater PC?


Would appreciate your help.

Ask mo yung dealer ng tv kung kayang i-decode yung 5.1 audio thru usb at anong capacity ng hard disk ang kaya nitong madetect. Or magdala ka ng files (3D or 2D with DTS/Dolby) para matest mo. Kung kaya ng tv, sa 3D files in hard disk ka na lang mag-invest. Marami ng murang bluray disc players ngayun pero mahal pa rin ang bluray discs lalo na yung 3D versions (average is P1,000 each).

Thanks for your response. If ever po may slight issues ang TV sa pagbabasa ng files, can I opt to buy something alternative sa BD player, like HTPC ba yun or NMT? Not sure how they work eh. Pero mas mahal ba ang mga yun? Mukhang for now ang magiging source kasi namin ay files eh, not the disks itself.

if you're going to collect blu-ray discs, get a bd player. otherwise, get a media player.
if you want something more versatile/powerful than a media player (or if you want to turn your blu-ray collection into digital copies on HDDs,) build an htpc.

Thank you.

Just making sure na yung terms po naiintindihan ko ng tama. Yung NMT ba yung media player? If so, what else can it do? And bakit po ito ang sinusuggest nyo?

Also if possible, what are nice brands na di mahal?

Until now I don't have a Bluray disc player. But i am still planning to get one soon. Why? Because my dvd player is conking out so ipapalit ko blu ray disc player that could play all disc formats.

If you have a dvd disc collection, i think ok pa rin magkaroon ng blu ray player to play your discs.

Thank you. Nakatulong po ng marami ang mga payo nyo at opinion kahit na madami na ako nababasa na articles online.

I don't think I would still need a multimedia player since SmartTV naman ang kukunin ko at parang mas marami pang mura na BD players eh. Isa pa, BD players can also play files from the HDD thru USB connection. Plus, yun nga, sometimes, we are fond of collecting classic disks. :)

Ano po ang pinaka mura, matibay,at efficient na BD player na kaya din mag decode ng lahat ng video and audio formats thru disk player and USB? If ever there's one?

do take note that blu-ray players (and firmware updates) released by 2012 are required to implement cinavia content protection.

if you try playing an unauthorized copy of a movie via a blu-ray player's media file capability, cinavia might engage after about 10 minutes of playback, that is if the media file has the audio watermark in place. search for the topic re: cinavia for more info.

Blu ray players are not very good at playing files from HDD. In my experience, mas ok pa media playing capability ng LS5700 and LA6910 tvs ko kesa sa blu ray player ko

Depends on the blu-ray player..  OPPO blu-ray player can play HDD files just fine.. :)  There is no need for a media player in my set-up anymore..

Yeah, i should've qualified na most blu ray players. Haha

For its price, I would be furious if Oppo did not have all the best in the tech that it has.

Doc, have you tried connecting a 3TB HDD to the Oppo?
Based from my experience hanggang 2TB lang narerecognize nya...
But PQ wise Oppo is still better than NMT even the Sigma based and most HTPCs when playing media files(MKVs) ^-^

Maganda rin kasi sa HTPC ay may front end ka na yummy..like XBMC...lalo na kung ang AVR mo ay capable naman for high quality video processing....
Sana in future pwedeng install ang xbmc sa OPPO..that would be awesome! Ito ang hinihintay ko!

Kaso redundant na sya kasi may avr ka naman...kung hindi mo naman need ng front end, oppo is the choice..sa 105, may high quality DAC ka pa..pwede na mag download ng meta data ang oppo via gracenote.

Balak mong mag upgrade brader?

Hindi naman redundant coz andyan na yang HDMI Input... Why not use it diba? ;)
If you want to use the Oppo as a dedicated CD player then 105 is for you but if your just after the PQ improvement then 103 is the practical choice... ^-^

Video processing dapat via OPPO while sound processing via AVR naman.. Throughput lang ang sound from player..

You can shoot both...kaso gastos na naman..kaya budget ang final decision. PQ is really good for 103.

Pero I guess if Oppo 105 ang player then puwede audio processing sa player.. In my case, audio processing is via my ONKYO 5010..

O kaya eto na lang ang kunin nyo, a hot-rodded BDP-103 ala Modwright din.  >:D >:D >:D



Electrocompaniet EMP-3

Electrocompaniet has done what many companies faced with the same problem has done – buy an off-the-shelf OEM Blu-ray player, and make it EC’s own. In the majority of cases today, that means buying an Oppo, as Electrocompaniet used as the backbone for the EMP3 multichannel universal player. That way, Oppo is the license payer and the audiophile brand gets to act as hot-rodder. But, in so doing, brands like Electrocompaniet invite potential censure; Oppo makes a good product at a keen price and invariably the brand using that Oppo as a platform for its own product needs to add more than a front panel to justify its existence.

In the case of the EMP3, Electrocompaniet takes the standard Oppo BDP-103 platform and runs with it. The unsullied BDP-103 is a fine Blu-ray player in its own right, capable of full 3D picture replay and this part really isn’t touched (screensaver aside). It’s an Oppo strong point and why mess with what’s already good. However, if you paw over the reviews of the Oppo conducted by hi-fi magazines especially, there’s a common consensus that the sound quality of the standard Oppo output stage is a bit of a weak spot. This is where EC comes into its own.
