Unboxing the Sony BDPS560 Blu-Ray Player

[GRiZLOC]

Oh my God i really love all kinds of Blu Ray players. I love it so much that i have several blu ray players like 2 PS3 slims (120 Gig HDD) and a stand alone blu ray player from samsung model bd-c6900. Also i have 2 blu ray drives inside my gaming pc. I can't wait for my PS3 slims to get the 3D firmware update for 3D movie playback.

The Sony BDP-470 and 570 will also be 3D ready out of the box or after a firmware update. Thank you sony for inventing the BLU RAY DISC!!!

Can you open the disk tray via the remote control?

Another difference between the two players is that unlike the S-360 and some other players out there, the S-560 has S-Video as well.

why isnt it supllied with a HDMI cable in the box? It seems quite obvious that you need one. Most of us will not have use of any analog video cable and it will end up in a drawer or at worst in the trash.

Because it costs that little bit more which means less profit for Sony!!!

How is the Sony Bdp S-560 different from the Sony Bdp S-760?

[hdna12]

Is the Sony Bdp S-560 same as the Sony Bdp S-360 besides the wifi and the usb port on the front?

Can you use a regular Flash Drive on the front of the Sony Bdp S-560's usb port?

Hello, you are correct the BDPS560 has the WiFi connectivity and the USB port in the front. Those are the main differences between the BDPS360 and BDPS560. You can use a regular flash drive on the S560 as well, I plugged in my 300GB Western Digital HDD into the USB and it worked. We also tried various USB flash drives from 512MB to 16GB with no issues thus far.
