What's in the BoxPanasonic DMP-BD75, Remote Control With Two AA Batteries, User's Manual Product DescriptionPanasonic DMP-BD75Blu-ray Disc Player - 1 Disc(s) - Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS HD DMP-BD75 Blu-ray Disc Players 81 of 83 people found the following review helpful: Easy to use, DLNA takes some work This review is from: Panasonic DMP-BD75 Ultra-Fast Booting Blu-ray Disc Player (Electronics) I have been waiting for this Blu-ray player since it was announced in January, bought this to use with my Panasonic VIERA TV set. VIERA link is the main reason I bought this -- it's for our exercise room, and my wife hates all the remotes. Great as a basic DVD/blu-ray player. Pop in a DVD, TV turns on, and sets the correct input. Also, one button selection of Netflix works great, and the new Netflix interface includes search. On screen interface is also very nice and easy to use. As will all new players, only has HDMI and composite video connectors, but single HDMI for video and audio is nice and is required for VIERA link. Only reason for the 4 stars is DLNA (which in not just an issue with this device). Writing this in the hopes of saving at least one person the hours I spent setting this up. First, with my Windows 7 PC, the device was able to see and play the Windows Media Center .wtv files (I have a TV tuner card in my PC), so you can record shows on your PC and watch them on this player in another room. Compatibility with .wtv files was not mentioned in the manual, nor by Panasonic online support. Panasonic support also said that .mkv files would only play via a disk or the usb, but some of my .mkv files on my PC did play using DLNA (for some reason, only the files with an aspect ratio of 1024X576 or higher will play). Decided I needed a media server. After trying Tversity, Playon, and Serviio, none of which would work with the DMP-BD75, I installed Mezzmo on my PC. Worked like a champ! The player sees all the files on my PC and they play flawlessly over my home network. Remote will only control TV volume, power, and input, so if you switch to TV, you have to switch remotes. Don't know why in TV mode the number keys couldn't function to enter a channel number. Still, the remote will control all disc functions, Netflix, and all my video files via DLNA. One thing with the remote and VIERA link, the large power button turns on the player and will also turn on the TV at the same time. However, when you power down, using the large power button only turns off the player (which does make sense, you may want to leave the TV on). There is a second power button for the TV. If you turn off that button, both with shut down. Overall, for just under $100 you can't go wrong. And if you aren't interested in DLNA or 3D, then this would be a 5 star player. This review is from: Panasonic DMP-BD75 Ultra-Fast Booting Blu-ray Disc Player (Electronics) I've had this Bd75 for about a month now. When I first received it , I had problems. I mainly got this unit so I could stream Netflix movies, and wanted to have a Blu-ray player to connect to my Panasonic TC-L42U22 1080p LCD TV. When the player chose to work, I was overwhelmed by the fantastic picture quality of this TV/Blu-ray combo. But, the Bd75 had bugs, and if you're like me, if something doesn't work as it should right out of the box, chances are things are only going to get worse. I decided that the Bd75 was so good at streaming Netflix movies that I would keep it, bugs and all. Now for the really good news. I turned the unit on a few days ago, and had a on-screen message that there was a firmware update available. Version 1.19 I let it download. It restarts itself after the download, and since then, NO bugs, freeze-ups, or any other problems. If this firmware update does its job, then this Bd75 player will be a steal at the $99.00 it sells for. 53 of 61 people found the following review helpful: Don't Buy This for Amazon Video on Demand This review is from: Panasonic DMP-BD75 Ultra-Fast Booting Blu-ray Disc Player (Electronics) Panasonic says this player won't support Amazon Video on Demand as it does not have VIERA Cast capability. There is currently no firmware update and they told me they don't expect to add this feature in the future either. It does support Netflix streaming. I have since returned the DMP-BD75 and purchased a Panasonic DMP-BD65 with VIERA Cast. The DMP-BD65 works great and streams Amazon Video on Demand.  Good solid blue ray player I wanted a small, simple, and reliable blue-ray disc player for use on our boat. This one does the job. It loads the disc quickly and produces a beautiful picture. by Roger J. Buffington Best Price, Good Service Unit matches Viera LCD LED TV. Delivered on time and perfect. My only complaint is apparently you need to always use the TV and remote with it. by R. Porter Excellent basic Blu-ray player This is an excellent no-frills Blu-ray player that doesn't require a degree in electronics or digital media to set up and use IMMEDIATELY. by Sci-guy MKV playback and drive support (This review is for the PAL version) I'm writing this review because I could not find the following information anywhere. by Marteinn Einarsson Great Blu-Ray on a budget I've had this player for a few weeks now.

I have been using this for over 2 months now, mostly for playing Blu-rays and standard DVDs. by Mudd Good feature set for the price I bought this player to replace my previous DVD player that died on me. I was very surprised at how nice the player was for the price. by Master_of_Disaster Works Great! I just got this Blue Ray player and I was very impressed it works very well and I highly recommend it. by aaron anderson Decent Received item and was disappointed to find out it is internet accessible via hard wire only. No wireless connectivity. by Mike My first Blu-ray experience. This was my first experience with blu-ray.
