Samsung Has New Blu’s Coming This Fall |
If you’re thinking of jumping onboard the Blu-ray bandwagon but have yet to decide on a player maybe you should hold off until Samsung comes out with its two new additions to its Blu-ray line this fall. The BD-1400 (priced at $550) will be notable for having support for 24 frames-per-second output, removing any instances of stuttering motion in the video (an effect called “judder”) for high-end displays capable of this mode. It will also have internal decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD so you can crank up the noise if you’ve got a high-end stereo hook-up.
In addition to the 24 fps support, the BD-P2400 ($650) adds another microchip that delivers HQV (Hollywood Quality Video) processing to deliver the absolute best video presentation experience you can get on these players. If you’ve got a nice home theater system then going the extra $100 and getting this model seems like the natural choice.
The BD-1400 streets in September while the BD-2400 arrives one month later. Both models will play movies in high def 1080p / 1080i / 720p, upconvert to 1080p and also include a HDMI 1.3 port, Ethernet jack and 5.1 analog audio outputs.
