The Offical Yamaha Bd-s2900 Blu-ray Player Thread

[futureblu]

I thought seriously about buying this unit when i first heard about it. But i own the RX-V2700 reciever and the 2900 dose not do internal decoding of Dolby True HD or DTS-HD Master Audio (which is what I want). For that feature i can get better (The OPPO BDP-83) for less.

Yes i am surprised that The 2900 doesn't decode internally.It was made strictly for receivers that decode.
That's why i know this player isn't for anyone.

I just want to add that i am impressed with me not needing firmware so far. I just bought Mirrors,Stepbrothers and Repo Man the opera (The musical) and runs beautifully.

The 3 i mentioned does not play on my 1400 Samsung (gave to my son) he needs firmware
