LG Super Blu™ Player = BluRay + HD DVD

lgbh100.jpg
Everyone’s been talking about Blu-Rays and HD-DVD’s. We have seen the PS3 loaded with the Blu ray and the Xbox with  HD DVD. There are few other players in the market that support either of these formats. Well here’s one from LG that can play them both…

LG, one of the biggest names in Home appliances has introduced the LG Super Blu™ Player (LG BH-100)which plays the Blu-ray Disc™ and HD DVD high-definition disc formats with more than twice the resolution of standard DVD discs. Of course it also plays the current wide variety of DVD formats (DVD±R, DVD-RW etc.) ensuring that you can experience high-definition discs while still enjoying your current DVD video collection.

The LG Super player gives you full HD  at 1080p (24/30Hz) resolution providing the highest quality video resolution available from the all-digital HDMI output. When combined with a full HD 1080p Flat Panel TV (accepting 24/30Hz) your viewing experience will come to life. A user-friendly interactive menu system with BD-Java (Blu-ray Disc™ Java) standard profile technology makes your Blu-ray™ Disc viewing experience easy and entertaining through high-definition animations, advanced subtitles and scene searches.

According to the experts at Gizmodo, the LG Super Player doesn’t fully support HD-DVD menus and the price tag is outrageous. Even a second hand PS3 and HD DVD player put together wouldn’t cost this much. But if you’re looking for an all in one solution, then we recommend you to wait till the others bring in their goodies for you to get a better deal!

    1. with the war against standards seeing no end at the horizon, it is best to invest in a player that gives you the best of both worlds.
      but im just wondering what the upscaling would be for my older DVDs ..

        Hmm, that’s a good point! I know that the Sony bluRay players upscale current DVD’s to 1080p. Should check what LG’s got to offer on this aspect.
