Post by: coastal on Apr 26, 2012 at 07:44 AM: Usually I set the tv picture to cinema mode just to lessen the effect pero sanayan din yan kasi wala ka ring magagawa dahil yun na talaga ang quality. But you can google for the setting which would suit your taste, some say it just needs adjustment in contrast or sharpness but I just settle for what's already available so dun lang ako sa default picture settings.

Samsung BD-ROM/DVD-RW combo drives are available in some shops for 4k+. CD-R King also sells slimline external ones at the same price.

Add 1k+ may BD writer ka na. If you like to store your bluray disk to hdd then get a htpc with a lot of room to accomodate hdd like silverstone with 11xhdd slot. >:D >:D >:D

The price may look a little steep (~$1149), but the numbers that it's been churning is beyond players costing 8x as much.

The Oppo BDP-105 (~1199) is also a great player that delivers excellent visuals and the widest set of features. It also uses a linear tranny.

If you own one of these players, it'd be wise to keep the AVR's video processing off (as it'd likely deteriorate the picture that you've paid dearly for) unless you have a strong reason to keep it on (like compensating for a poor display).
