A Look At The Functions Of The Sony BDP-S560 Media Player
Published by Fred at August 8th, 2009You can’t say electronics without also thinking about Sony- the leader in today’s media formats and players. One of the biggest releases of the recent past has been the BDP-S560, which has been hailed as a cure-all to the media fanatic who just wants a player that can do just about everything.
The Blu-ray disc was actually created by Sony to replace the DVD as the standard video format. The main difference is that the Blu-ray disc will be able to store up to 25 GB on a single layer disk- much more than the current DVD standard. As a result the discs support a higher quality picture of movies and video games. However, they also need a special disc player, such as the one currently being reviewed.
Before buying any type of media player, you have to see how compatible it is with your other devices. The Sony BDP-S560, as it turns out, is one of the most compatible devices you will buy for a long time. Not only does it play the Blu-ray discs that it is popular for, it also plays DVD and CD discs flawlessly. And thanks to new video technologies, the media will actually play better on the Blu-ray player.
The interface of the Sony BDP-S560 has been highly praised by critics. While it is essentially a rehash of the PS3 interface, there is certainly nothing wrong with that! The menu can easily be navigated thanks to easy grouping of information. Even the elderly who are not well versed in technology could navigate the BDP-S560.
Sony also realized that the picture quality and storage options wasn’t what made the movie experience- but rather the sound had a large part to play. Sony, thus, decided to give the player compatibility with Dolby TrueHD, which is the next big format in sound quality and design. The format will essentially allow those with high definition audio to feel as if they are in a movie theater- without the ticket price of course.
Sharing information between devices is necessary for your media player to work. What you probably haven’t thought of was how many options there really are when you think about the different devices a media player can hook up to. From your average audio and visual ports to the less common ports, the Sony BDP-S560 is able to get your media to other devices no matter what they are. The average audio and visual geek will truly be proud at this fact.
