this is one awesome blu ray player for the price... besides the blu ray function.... plays all my hardisk movie collection avi, mkv, mp4 files etc...except unsupported format (rmvb) of course...

PQ (for movie files) may not be as good as dedicated media players but good enough for me. For best PQ can't beat Blu ray

thanks for this great thread which made it an easy choice for entry level/ first time blu ray user like me

No need the WiFi adapter, I am setting up by cross linking to my laptop as I only have DiGi broadband access in my room.

Instruction on setting up cross linking


  • I connect my laptop (PC) via my Nexus One Portable Wi-Fi hotspot network tethering.

  • Connect the Blu-ray player using a cross network cable to my laptop.

  • Once establish connection, change your PC LAN connection from Dynamic IP to Static IP.

  • Put IP address as 192.168.0.1 on LAN TCP/IPv4 at PC.

  • PC LAN subnet mask as 255.255.255.0

  • Leave blank for the rest of the PC LAN setting.

  • Now go to the BD player network settings and choose manual IP setup.

  • Assign the BD IP as 192.168.0.2, & subnet mask as 255.255.255.0

  • Set the BD Default Gateway & DNS to 192.168.0.1

  • Now back to your PC, and tick enable ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) in your PC Wireless Network Connection Properties as seen below.

** With above setting, you can share 3 devices connected to internet. (Nexus One, Laptop & this blu-ray player). I don't have router in my room, I never test on it, I only use cross link method. The WiFi adapter I won't ever think to purchase it, no point purchase on it as it is too costly.

Tried the above setup but with broadband modem, but cannot connect to internet tv.

All network setup is ok, network test also done... says connect to internet

But when start internet tv... it just comes to the itv main screen but cannot move cursor or click to any of the screen buttons/icons

I wonder if problem is the player or the internet connection...hmmm
