Editorial Review:
The BD-UP5000 Duo HD player is positioned as the flagship in the company's growing line of high definition players. Offering the same playback capabilities as the BD-P2400 including HQV (Hollywood Quality Video) processing, the BD-UP5000 supports both Blu-ray and HD -DVD formats as well as their interactive technologies, BD Java and HDi. Consumers can now enjoy additional studio content such as trailers, director's comments, more elaborate interactive menus and behind the scene footage.

Rating:  - Awesome System
I went from the Toshiba 3 HD DVD system to this one, keeping the Toshiba as a back up for HD DVDs and I could not be happier with this system. I've only been using it for about a month, but the quality of play is excellent, the start up time for the machine is faster than the Toshiba, and I have had no DVD issues with random pausing like I a little bit with the Toshiba. Oh, and it plays Bluray discs? Ye-ah.

Rating: - Installed the latest firmware update and I am impressed.

Saved me money by not having to replace all my HD DVD movies. Plays all movies crystal clear without paying an arm and a leg!
Rating:  - DVD-R Playback Problem
First I have yet to update my firmware so keep this in mind as well as the fact I've only had the unit about two weeks. That said I'm not overly impressed except for the obvious fact that the BD-UP5000 does play both Blu-Ray and HD-DVD discs. That is pretty cool for those of us who have HD-DVD discs. The less cool part is the the unit seems to NEVER plays a DVD-R recorded disc all the way through. Oh, it starts well and plays generally 3/4's the way through...Then it stutters for a bit and usually ... Read More
