NS-2BRDVD

 

The inexpensive Insignia NS-2BRDVD Blu-ray player offers terrific high-def visuals and an excellent design--but it handles DVD upconversion poorly.

Excellent images from Blu-ray Disc ; Well-designed remote

Poor at upconverting standard DVDs

If you're looking for a bargain in a Blu-ray player, the Insignia NS-2BRDVD is the best you can buy--but only if you're willing to rely on another source for upscaling your standard-definition DVDs

Insignia NS-2BRDVD - Blu-ray disc player

Relatively inexpensive; solid Blu-ray image quality with most movies; USB port for accessing photos and music.

Does not currently support Profile 2.0; lacks full onboard decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio; DVD playback will disappoint videophiles; some annoying operational glitches; slow to load some Blu-ray movies; can't upgrade firmware with...

The Insignia NS-2BRDVD is an underfeatured and slow-loading Blu-ray player, but it provides basic Blu-ray playback at a bargain.

Insignia NS-2BRDVD

 

I'd just read on another site that it has BD Live, just Best Buy's site doesn't list it. But thats why there's an ethernet jack on the back. It's Profile 2.0. hence the model change between NS-BRDVD and NS-2BRDVD with the added 2. Isn't one of the...

Insignia NS-2BRDVD

 

Bestbuy has this model in stores for a close out price of $99.00, on website it still shows for $199.00. There is a new firmware for this player on the Insignia website. It is a must for playback of newer Fox titles with the latest copy protection....

Above average Blu-ray playback. Decent upsampling on standard DVD. Good price point

Slow load times. No BD Live.Remote leaves a lot to be desired
