Indeed, there still has some rather irritating for some defects.
I'm not talking about the absence of buttons or screen in front of the player, it is understandable for pricing issues. What is most painful is the remote "Philips" mode, ie a round-oval trick with super hard buttons. That of my (previous) Philips TV had become hemiplegic (all the right buttons HS) after 10 days. So I always fear the worst with this kind of remote control ....
Ditto for the interface: the Philips (China) sauce, ie with no "rotary" navigation for disk directories (I can not go from A to Z by doing "arrow up", but only in leaving pressed "down arrow" - CeQui can be long if there are many files in the directory). Likewise, no key "page break" to speed up browsing.
Reading the files on disk is going well at the recognition of MKV: no rejection (which is quite rare on this kind of product specialist nopn) and reading internal subtitles (no external subtitles playback and / or of type "image" as PGS or SUB. So no subtitles in the MKV 3D SBS). Similarly, no ISO of support, be it DVD (just reading the VOB, IFO but not. So no menu navigation). Well netendu, no ISO playback Blu-ray 2D or 3D (which is all normal amount).
Last on playing MKV: large failures in chapters jumps (some times it takes 2 minutes to reset in the next chapter, when it does not crash Ditto for fast forward, that if it is. too fast, can plant)
Finally, the connection is limited to its simplest expression (1 HDMI and 1 + 1 Digital Coax Ethernet - but do not ask more).
The image quality is not too bad, but not sensational (my "old" Panasonic BD player for 7 years there comes a better image), and the settings are very basic (selection "normal" "lively" or "cold"!). In any case, in 3D and on a video projector, it is better than the PS3 (which is why I bought this drive), if one disregards loading times, even quite long.
So, for the price (especially with the offer for 1 5 3D BD purchased), it's interesting, if one is not too demanding, though.
