Here shrugs nothing, it is not jerky; great picture (at least for the domestic LED TV enough) and the sound is as desired as directed Bitstream to the AVR (all formats).
Add to that a USB port on the front for connecting a flash drive or an external hard drive. Rear only the most necessary, but that's enough, too: Coaxial audio output, HDMI-out and LAN connection for updates.
Who needs more comfort (eg WLAN or WiFi connectivity) must resort to some more expensive devices.
Very small, compact unit (without display) and a simple control knob on top (only the most essential functions: on / off and Play / Pause; Eject). Everything else about the small remote control. That's OK!
Drive noise clearly audible only during laser change; otherwise quiet machine.
4 stars for a good entry-level device for not aloof claims.
