LG BD550 Blu-Ray Player Review Part 1

[@SteveHuber777]

Do you need any extra services and extra costs to get internet access like you tube?

[@profudefranceza]

does the bd550 play .MKV files from a NTFS formatted external hard drive? (not the US version, but the European one)

[@gshankargurusamy7612]

play dts master audio via external hard disk???

[@dragonbr1]

Hi, I'm interested in purchasing this device, I wonder if the device reads the format XVID? thanks

[@bgcyclops]

Hey guys, I need your help! I live in Region 2 (Bulgaria in particular) and I don't have the "netcast" option on my LG BD550 player? Is there any way I can turn it on?

[@ShyGuy_2008]

This was a very informative video. However, i have no clue on how to connect the Blu Ray player to my Wi~Fi.

[@BRADHblackdragon]

can i connect this to my laptop and watch bluray discs on it?how do u connect it?-via usb?

[@omar0796]

Puedo tener netflix, vudu o las demas aplicaciones en mi bluray bd550 de México? Es que solo tengo youtube, picasa, y acuweather, le actualice el software al mas reciente y aun asi no cambia nada y los videos de youtube se ven de muy mala calidad.

[@elyboyzki]

i have an Asian version of this player, same model but different design. its made in Indonesia, it doesn't have that Netcast feature, i dont think its a problem, because there is no Netflix here in our country. any, i still love this player. it's awesome!!

[@Gonzalez_Films]

I have this same player just got it from hhgregg electronics new.I hooked it up to my 1080p 40inch westinghouse lcd hd tv and the quality of blurays dvds are not as vibrant as i would have thought,it looks just a regular dvd just richer color it does not give that pop affect like its being filmed live sorta like a soap opera if you know what i mean,please let me know what setting you have it set to so i can try this casue im a bit frustrate its not as hd as everyone is saying.please let me know

[@anumanconsultant3941]

hi I just saw this while searching how to make this junk box region free... It has lot many limitations. .. Ok solution to your need keep your tv at eye level if it is wall mounted. Ideal TV height should be 42 inch from floor.. you will have different experience.. The player is good the only thing is it has too many limitations..

[@kambosoop]

Good review, sold me on buying it.

[@gabito.92]

@theurbanblend my BD550 hasn't got netcast, what can i do?

[@gabriellouzadapereira35]

[@gilbertpineda7]

[@ChanelLanda]

[@Breal43]

me 2 awesome player 4 the price except no wifi but this is my backup player if my ps3 blu ray drive breaks, but so far zero problems with either player im floored by the picture quality for only 164.00 i highly recommend this player.

[@win33adam]

Anyone know how to make this multi region for dvds

[@TinaVaughn007]

Waste of time. How do I get apps?

[@RafaelSequera]

@ivan848984 wondering exactly same thing...

[@jidzplayz5577]

Everytime i try to watch anything on it. I just get sent to the menu after 3 seconds

[@elyboyzki]

@shawnstar86 maybe its because of your tv. your tv should be 120hz (Sony calls it motion flow, while LG calls it TruMotion. I have LG 120hz tv @ 32inch and movies looks like telenovela or telecines. You should replace your tv like that which im sure, all of your movies will pop out. Your viewing experience will definitely change. I call it poor mans 3d movie. hehehe!

Здравствуйте как открыть id регистрацию

[@alfa156man]

Anyone buying in the u.k, this doesnt have netcast. I bought one today from blockbuster. It went back today. Get a bd 565 instead.

[@gabito.92]

@strzempa me too, WTF???

[@carolbazaya]

i just got mine and very dissappointed that it is not multi regional... to make it worse i couldn send it back coz i had taken it out of the box ...im stuck with a stupid player that will not play any of my dvds ....sucks!!!!

[@Maxos54321]

Avoid to buy LG products specially blue ray players, you will have more sad and frustrating episodes on your life than good ones, you have been warned.

[@obrapro]

This is a scam. There is NO FIRMWARE UPDATER!

[@BlueApe57]

This is a 12 year old player. This more than likely no longer supported
