3D Technology Checklist This product is 3D-related. To help you get a great 3D experience, use the checklist below to ensure you have everything you need. 3D viewing requires: A DisplayFirst, you'll need a 3D-ready display--whether it's a 3D HDTV, 3D projector, or 3D computer monitor. These displays have more processing power than standard 2D models for displaying 3D images in rapid succession. A SourceYour display may be ready for 3D playback, but you'll still need a device to read 3D content. This can be a cable box with a subscription to a 3D channel, a 3D Blu-ray Disc player, or a PlayStation 3 system. 3D Content3D content--the actual entertainment, in other words--will be played back using the source mentioned above, whether it's a 3D broadcast from your cable provider, a 3D Blu-ray Disc, or a 3D video game. 3D GlassesFor now, the vast majority of 3D HDTVs require glasses for 3D viewing. Many use powered "active shutter" glasses, others polarized "passive" glasses. You'll need one pair per viewer, and they'll have to be compatible with your display, whether they're the same brand, or a pair of "universal" glasses designed to work across brands. HDMI CableTo connect your source (such as a 3D Blu-ray Disc player) to your display, you'll need a high-speed HDMI cable. Cables with this designation feature bandwidth speeds up to 10.2 Gbps (gigabits per second), for carrying the 3D signal without any loss of quality.

Most Helpful 291 of 313 people found this review helpful. A good unit, but some network problems with odd N. Porter [This is a long review of the guaranteed number of functions in the BDP-S580. I will try to give as much relevant information as I can in an attempt to make it as useful as possible. If you want a line "This is great" review, I apologize, but some people like the details:) I know you do]. IMPORTANT: I ​​have added several upgrades and changes over time to keep this review up to date. Be sure to check them for showing the problems I had earlier resolutions. I usually sit in the problems in the initial review, followed by a change with a resolution, so that other people are running the same problem will be able to find answers. Some background ... This was purchased to replace an old Sharp HP20U Blu-Ray and some of the characteristics of a network plays Dlink DSM-520 media. Then they also own the Sony BDP-S570 (the model before the S580), for a brief period as an attempt to replace the first, I decided to go back and get the new BDP-S580, however, in the hope that we may correct or improve a lot of flaws in 570 DLNA Let me say in advance that I like about this unit, but have some concerns. I am using wired Gigabit LAN with over CAT6, although this device has only a 100M Ethernet connection, and use the fastest service available where usually get 15-28 Charter Mbps download speeds at any given time. I am using HDMI through a receiver to a 1080p Sharp. First the good ... 1) Blu-ray load times are much faster than many other devices on the market. It 'was one of the main points I wanted to achieve with the camera. In fact, the BDP-S570 first release is still one of the fastest charger CNET ever, even with the "Quick Start" off, which is comparable. I recommend leaving the option of rapid onset was generally in order to save energy, the monetary cost of maintaining the device in a kind of startup mode, not worth it if the player can start very quickly for everyone, however, upload speed test, I used the "Avatar", BD, the worst manager a long shot of the discs I have. Avator took more than five minutes to get to the main menu screen on my old Sharp, Sony, and you get to the main menu of about 2 minutes and 50 seconds. That still is not fast, but remember that this is the worst manager I've ever seen. BD, as "Master and Commander," "Cars" or "300" We all have that within their menus around 30 seconds, and reach the main menu, I mean I had to go through all the warnings of rights FBI copyright, etc. 2) The unit is silent when playing a disc. It is silent, but seems better than the S570 and much better than the old Sharp. Note that when you leave a disc while using other features of the S580, you still have a bit of noise, as if always ready to maintain the database, I guess this is not a bad idea for a quick start when you select the BD of the menu system. 3) The BDP-S580 uses the standard Sony xdb interface that can be found on PS3, PSP, etc. I like but others do not. In my opinion, fast, clean, easy to navigate, and this particular device seems to respond very quickly when you scroll through the icons / options (some have seemed slower). 4) I had no problems with buffering, stutter or pause the video when playing online. I Amazon Instant Video, YouTube, YouTube, Hulu and HD Video Plus free to try. There is no problem to play online audio, either with Pandora, NPR, Slacker. But, see notes below about "bad" part that relates to actually get the transmission to begin ... 5) The recorded DLNA is good and the interface is fast and responsive. Plays much faster than the Dlink DSM-520 All files are good so far and counting. Wma and. Mp3 formats. Note that this comment is in reference to audio files, see "bad" part of my thoughts on video files through DLNA ....
