It works, but the disc door doesn't close fully
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This replaced a Sony unit that was hit by a surge through the Ethernet or HDMI cables from the cable box. It ran every thing well for five + years. I wanted the same unit, but it wasn't being made. This one is close to it. This one has a door that folds down when the disc is loaded. There is a good size gap along the top of the door and the top of the drive box. Quality control was bad on this unit. The unit box was not packed in another box. The box looked like it had slid from one side to the other in the truck. I don't expect this one to last as long.

Great Blu-ray Player
||Posted .I am reviewing the Sony - BDP-S6700 Streaming 4K Upscaling Wi-Fi Built-In Blu-ray Player. Although I have access to Netflix, Amazon and such I did not want to stop viewing my dvd collection. This is the easiest player to work with and the image is perfect. It is small and light and includes its own remote. I printed the image with the price before going to the store and although the price was higher in-store, the lower price in my online copy was honored. I consider that good service. If you are searching for an inexpensive, quality Blu-ray player; this is it.

Q: QuestionI just setup this player and bought two 4k Ultra HD movies. When I try to view these movies, I get an error message saying that it cannot read the disc. Is there something I am missing? Do I need a software upgrade?
Asked by RussTampa.
- A:Answer Russ, there are now 3 major disc formats: DVD (480P), Standard Blu-Ray (1080P HD), and 4K Blu-Ray (2160P Ultra HD). What you have in this player is a DVD and standard Blu-Ray player. It does NOT play 4K Blu-Ray discs. What is does do is "upconverts" the resolution of standard Blu-Ray discs (1080P) to mimic 4k (2160P) output. It takes a Blu-Ray's 1080P image and uses an algorithm to "guess" what the extra pixels would look like, then outputs a 4K image. I believe most 4K players also have this ability for the original DVD and Blu-Ray formats. For those who are unfamiliar with the terminology 480P, 1080P, and 2160P, these designations refer to horizontal lines of resolution. Obviously, the more lines of resolution you have, the more detailed the picture will be. The "P" refers to a format called Progressive scan. These days, the "P" can largely be ignored since all new formats use Progressive scan. The following is for those who want a better understanding of Progressive scan but might be too much information for non-techies: During the initial roll out of HD, networks were still broadcasting analog rather than digital signals and used a format called interlacing (480i and 1080i) to squeeze more broadcast into limited bandwidth. In an Interlaced signal, only half the image was displayed on your TV screen at any given time. Your TV would show the odd lines of resolution then, a split second later (1/60 of a second to be exact) it would flash the even lines of resolution. Your mind would naturally piece the two half images together into a single picture although, occasionally, with an noticeable flicker. Once digital signals replaced analog, bandwidth skyrocketed over the same network infrastructure and providers became less concerned about the amount of information contained in a single signal. Now, essentially all broadcasts and recordings (Blu-Ray discs) are in the Progressive format where the entire high definition image is flashed on the screen together at 30 frames/second. The result is a crystal clear, razor sharp, and flicker free high definition image.

Q: QuestionThe specs say this BDP-S6700 is not "smart capable", yet some lower models are. What is the difference between a smart capable player and one that isn't? What does "smart capable" mean? Do you need a newer smart tv?
Asked by Velo.
- A:Answer Hi Velo, based on the specifications of this unit, this is a smart Blu-ray player that you can stream from 300+ entertainment services, play PlayStation Now games and upscale your content to near-4K quality13. Even connect wirelessly to Bluetooth headphones, wireless speakers, game controllers and more. No, you don't need a newer smart TV to connect this unit. As long as there's an HDMI input port on your TV, this player should work. Dave

Q: QuestionWill this player upscale regular dvds to hd1080, I don't have a 4K TV but I have this player.
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer This unit will not up-convert a regular dvd, but it will make them look better. Blu-ray discs do up-convert to give a 4k like image.

Q: QuestionOther sites including Sony and Amazon state this 6700 is a 3D player. Best Buy says it's not in the description! Who's right?

Q: QuestionDo I need a 4K tv to use this player? It can play 3D movies? Does this mean 3D blu ray and 3D DVD? Do I need a 3D tv to watch 3D movies? Do I need a 4K 3D tv to use this player or will my standard Vizio smart tv be fine?
Asked by MusicDustin12.
- A:Answer You do not need a 4K tv to use this player. You would need a 3D tv to watch and play 3D blue ray, 3D Dvds and 3D movies. You do not need a 4K 3D tv to use this player overall unless you want to upgrade. The standard tv should work and keep in mind the DVD player does play regular DVDs and Blue rays as well has built in wi fi with choices of streaming. It does require download upgrades from time to time. I have an older not smart tv and it seems to be working fine.
