LG BD670 Reviews

Many reviews said that this player could be play more digital files than the competition (such as AVI, MP4, DivX/avi, etc.) from wireless from Vista desktop computer, or USB. When we receive and configure the built-in wireless (ATT Uversa we have with the router in the room), it instantly make a search to find the firmware file. It takes about 10-15 minutes to start with the new firmware. Then you're finish. You must login to the Netflix and other services and you're good done!

It was the DLNA streaming, built-in wireless. We were not disappointed in any of its functions. Wireless connectivity is a breeze - the installation is simple, this model assumes a 32 character WPA2. The wireless connection seems to be much more stable with other wireless devices that we have. Sometimes it is necessary, and off to connect at startup, but it is not surprising, given how our router is flaky.

Blu-ray play is really good. Many Blu-ray discs are apparently deliberately grainy because it duplicates the experience of "film" as the director intended. You can watch the movie mode on the TV, to reduce the grain, because it reduces the sharpness. Our other Blu-ray is very smooth and detailed, like most other drives. Resolution of the reproduction is excellent, you can see every pore on someone's face and the depth of field is incredible. There were gaps or stutters gels in each of the disks, which we played. Upscaling DVD is good too.

Wireless streaming from Netflix was absolutely painless, once we worked on Netflix ESN that the player is not in the network configuration menu, use the code you need to configure the connection Netflix. You have the icon menu that LG premium access premium streaming services, Netflix and select the connection you use the code from the setup menu there. Enter the code only once on the website and works automatically to streaming Netflix.

We hope our experience will save others the time to try to connect with the wrong code! Netflix streaming quality is very good, much better than most television shows. The player seems to play perfectly Netflix almost stuttering problem solving or degraded, even for HD movies. The only problems we've seen is when our internet connection is overloaded.

We are very pleased with how it was painless to set up streaming from a PC via DLNA. A copy of Nero Essentials Home Media Server is delivered on CD - We have installed these, the player automatically detect our computer and gave me a list of files that we could play on the record media. It was so easy! DLNA streaming media, works very well: We have had problems with stuttering only an amateur one, large (10 GB) of video files and stopped.

Summary: At the moment we are pleased with this player, only with the understanding that the problems they want a firmware update. Since these blu ray becomes more complex with all the different functions they have, but it also means there is still a chance for various bugs and unexpected like that player is still suffering from the resulting pop-ups, the need update the firmware.
