that's what i'm planning to do but there's a new model bdc-5300, similar features with faster loading video...i guess this model is ok also..

there is two entry model, one is D5300 and the other is D5100. I guess both is okay, tome, C5500 is s til the best rclxms.gif one of the reason is the touch panel on the player, if i'm not mistaken, the newer model, are push buttons.

My bluray player bdc5500 now getting problem. Before this it happen no sound.
After I  turn off for 1 day, then switch ON back the sound came out.
Now when turn ON the player did not display the front menu at LCD TV.
It only display "samsung bluray player" a few second then it turn dark(no display).
When I play bluray disk, the sound only can be hear but still no video display.

I think my HDMI port  already have problem or getting "kong". I dont know. maybe this due to I updated to latest firmware, or due to
I always off in "standby" mode not totally power off the player.
Very frustrated.
Time to check my warranty card.

Anyone getting this problem?

after turn OFF 1 day (totally power off)..now OK can display the video...
i DONNO WHAT HAPPENING TO MY PLAYER.

Hmm is it over heating or something...keep monitoring.

Mine is on standby the whole day, so far so good...no issues and I have not upgraded any firmware, although everytime I go online, it would say, upgrade the latest FW, but so far I didnt do it, since nothing is broken.....

BTW, I still prefer the panasonic youtube search and maneuver compared to samsung.

Are you sure, you could still find C5500? I suggest, you to walk to the store and compare the spec or try googling it. I dont think many would own both player to compare.

Just upgraded the C5500 firmware to 1021. Can't play FLAC format music. Heard that it is possible to play FLAC music on C5500 on the net. Appreciate advice on how to do this. Thanks.

sorry mate, didnt try that...i guess you folks are very adventures in trying the USB for movies and songs, I prefer to use the REAL Media Player to play those, rather than using the TV or BD player, since those are at very infant stage at this point in time...

Sorry for upgrading mine to CITY while yours is still a TOWN !

Huh? clarify please? rclxub.gif

SInce its under warranty better to get it repaired, if you going with the same range, then there is no better than what you have, unless you are willing to spend close to 1K or above. brows.gif
