The BDP-5200 combines everything expected of me and goes a distance beyond.
My TV, which is supplied with the player, in the bedroom and is directly connected via HDMI, no surround sound system or other frills.
In the bedroom, I wanted to have a quiet machine and not cable (hence WLAN) for the Internet Streaming pull stories through the house. After looking at the Berwertungen I then decided to use the players reviewed here and was not disappointed.
The Quick Start setting described here I have turned on the 10 second, it does not strike me at the start of the player. Once the player has booted, one of the laser hears briefly how locked, that's it. After that he is geraeuschfrei. Wait a little while, and the player is connected to the home network (WLAN).
Blu-Ray and DVD's run very quietly, only when a DVD or Blu-Ray has an imbalance, you can hear "something", but that is in many other devices such and is not a shortcoming of the player.
My main focus was on the grades of streaming Netflix, Amazon Instant Video and files from one Twonky Media Server is installed on which my NAS (DNS-323).
Amazon Instant Video and Netflix apps are, in addition to some other streaming apps preinstalled. When selecting the apps it takes about 3-5 seconds, then the apps are loaded and already tested new versions.
The Menuefuehrung is fluid and smooth. In all my important disciplines the player copes with its tasks without hesitation.
Streamin Instant Video HD? No topic, short buffers and off you go.
Netflix? Also, HD picture and sound depends on quickly and cleanly.
Home network streaming? MKV? XVID? DIVX? No Problem. All files can be as far as play easily. Also scour the Media Library from NAS (several music files in folders on CD ripped as MP3 and many videos in different formats, including mobile video and WMV digital camera) is displayed without delay.
I am so far not come under Format, which I could not play on the player. As far as the player operates reliably and quietly in the bedroom to herself.
Meanwhile, I wonder even if I change (even one probably against the successors) if I should treat a 4k TV my PS3 in the living room not against this or that model naechstgroessere me soon. The player is the PS3 superiority if only for the many supported formats.
PS3 has been more often used times problems if not the correct audio or video codec when creating the videos. This can often times occur some cell phone or camcorder videos.
It may well be formats that the player can not play here, but myself, no come across!
From me there is a recommendation, the unit fit my requirements and I am very satisfied. The player supports nor the 3D playback, the TV in the bedroom, however, is not a 3D TV, but if my TV is being replaced in the living room, moves the the bedroom. Thus, the player exceeds my personal expectations for him and in the sense for me for the future. :)
