    I am looking for a blu ray player that can do divx.

    I have found a Samsung and a LG at Best Buy

    Samsung BD-p2550, LG BD300.

    Then there is a Panasonic unit that flat out says it plays Divx on the website

    DMP-BD55K.

    In my reading of the user comments on the best buy site..
    What was heavy was the load times. But i found that for other blu ray players, not just those three.

    What do you the people of Afterdawn think.


    Or will Divx just be resolved with a firmware upgrade nowadays?

    Thank you

    Have you considered PS3. Thats what I use for DivX-HD and it works great.

    I did consider it .. but not so much.

    I should have looked further into the capabilities of the PS3.

    I ended up settling on this unit.

    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8901227&type=product&id=1217634016243.

    When I buy something highend.. I usually go for the best buy. It was a tossup bewteen three unts. One had better audio processing. the other was cheaper its load time was not good. so I settled on this one.
    it can do netflix,pandora and i have a program to convert over to h.264 which it can do out of the box.

    Thank you for your post.
