Samsung launches BD-P1400 Blu-ray disc player

Samsung has introduced a third generation Blu-ray disc player, the BD-P1400.

The player is fully compatible with 24 movie frames per second playback, allowing movies to be played back in their native format.

The player’s Movie Frame (24Fs) feature allows the HDMI v1.3 output to be adjusted to 24 fps to provide a theatre-like experience.

The BD-P1400 also supports 60Fs for enhanced compatibility with other HDTVs on the market. Bitstream technology is also supported by the player.

Excellent sound quality is provided with advanced HD audio decoding, Dolby Digital and DTS audio playback, Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD.

The HDMI v1.3 connection features HDMI CEC (Anynet+) technology, which means that a single remote control can operate the BD player, TV and other A/V products from Samsung.

The player can up-convert standard DVD discs to full HD 1080p resolution via the HDMI connection, although the quality will not be as good as a true blue Blu-ray disc.
