Default Bd-p1400 And Blu-rays that aren't compatible

Anyone Have A List Of Blu-rays That Stutter Or Just Dont Play Worth A Sh%$ On The 1400? Ive Had 4 Or 5 Give Me Some Problems. Maybe The Next Firmware Update Will Help! The Last One Didnt Help Me Out And Samsung Doesnt Really Seem To Be On The Ball With Updates. I Was Checking The Specs Out On The 1500 And Didnt Like The Fact That It Bitstreamed Truehd But Not Master, Or So The Samsung Website Says.

The Samsung BD-P1500 will bitstream both Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD MA to a compatible receiver with HDMI 1.3. Before product launch many of these manufacturers' websites have nothing but errors and outdated information.

which titles are you having troubles playing?

i havent had one single problem playing any blu rays, including a lot of the titles other people have had troubles with, like the java discs and such.

also, if the 1500 doesnt bitstream both true hd and dts hd ma, then samsung will be taking a massive step backwards, since the 1400 bitstreams both just fine my denon receiver.

AVP-R, WALK HARD,JUST VERY LITTLE WITH RAMBO,COME TO MIND FIRST. I KNOW OTHERS HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH AVP-R. THATS ABOUT WHAT I THOUGHT ABOUT THE 1500 TOO AS I KNOW THE 1400 BITSTREAMS BOTH TO MY ONKYO RECEIVER. ALL I KNOW IS THATS WHAT SAMSUNGS WEBSITE SAID, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS STRANGE SINCE THE 1400 DOES, WHY PUT THE LATEST MODEL OUT WITH ONE LESS AND IMPORTANT TO ME, AUDIO FORMAT. MAYBE ITS AN ERROR!

like the other dude here said, its probably misprint or typo or something.

as for the titles, i have avp-r and rambo, and both play flawlessly on my 1400.
i havent purchased nor watched walk hard.

i know a lot of people have trouble with the pirates movies, which played fine on mine as well. i dont know what to tell ya. these 1400's seem to be spotty at best. i dont even have the latest firmware downloaded. i think its one or two back.

YOU ARE REALLY LUCKY THEN WITH YOUR 1400. SAMSUNG HAD TOLD ME THEY WERE AWARE OF SOME OF THESE MOVIE ISSUES, AND THAT WAS DAMN NEAR 2 MONTHS AGO. MAYBE I SHOULDNT HAVE UPDATED THE FIRMWARE THE LAST FEW TIMES. WHO KNOWS! I REMEMBER SOME PEOPLE HAD TROUBLE WITH LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD, BUT I DIDNT!

You can always roll back the FW if you desire. Now, stop shouting.

Actually, my 1400 has played flawlessly and I've had the 1.7 update on it. However, I just sold my 1400 on this website a little while ago. I am really liking the 1500 now.

Other than movies that came out needing FW updates near the beginning of this year (LFODH and POTC 3 come to mind), I haven't had any issues even with newer movies and Profile 1.1 flicks (Sunshine). The only movie that my1400 has had a complete melt down with is The Phantom of the Opera which is weird because that was released on BD in 2006. Last Samurai was released right around the same time, from the same studio and plays fine.

Frustrating

I haven't had any problems playing AVP:R or Rambo on my 1400. No issues at all with any Blu discs for that matter.

Rambo (very slight) and AVP had a couple of brief stutters, but nothing major. Everything else has played great.
