just curious, since this player doesn't have built in amplifier, do you guys owner of of c5500 connect to any speakers? or just the LCD..

It depends on what digital audio input ports your HTIB has. The C5500 has only optical digital audio out so you need a HTIB with optical digital audio input port to enjoy 5.1 audio. Otherwise, you'll get only stereo using the RCA red-white cable.

But the whole point of using BD is to enjoy the HD audio (apart from the HD video) so you should have an AVR to do justice to the HD audio. You'll just get stereo from the LCD TV.

Hi guys,

i hv another few more questions, hope any1 can kindly answer me.

1. Can I play MKV file that is burn into a DVD-R?

2. Can I use a Power Line Home Plug or Wireless Access Point to connect to the LAN port and stream movies, audio from there?

3. If i were to plug in an ethernet LAN cable, can I stream and play RMVB file from there since the player itself does not support RMVB file format.

4. Is there any limitation of capacity for an External HDD to be connected to?
Like 1TB, 2TB is the max or anything lower capacity.

5. Can I use a USB hub (powered or non-powered) to connect several USB flash drive or External HDD then select which to play from any of the USB flash drive or External HDD there?

6. I only see previous thread mentioned that it supports 2.5inch External HDD, but I guess a 3.5inch HDD also works right?

Thank you guys..

Why you need to turning off DVD 1080p upscale? It is benefit and enhanced for DVD playback in HDTV.

personally the proprietary wifi dongle is expensive.

no la, i dont know the default setting (upscale full hd) is on or off mah, if default setting is off, i need to turn it on

Hi guys

I haven't got the Sammy Blu Ray. Going to get soon.

I have a question:

I have Yamaha 5.1 sound system. So i just output the HDMI to AVR then can enjoy the surround right?

Hi everybody! My question, which one of these bluray player that can play 'ehem' bulray and 'ehem' dvd well? Samsung BD-C5500 or Philips BDP-3100? Looking to buy bluray player soon. Thanks!

if your Yamaha accept audio over HDMI then no problem. because some only allow video but not audio. it depends.
else juz use Optical cable for surround.
