Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this player because marketing materials stated that 3D capable blu ray players will run Hulu plus, and because I wanted the AllShare functionality. After 4 days, multiple support interactions and hours on the mysterious Samsung Apps website, etc, I have determined that this player does not support Hulu Plus. Apparently, the internet does not know this (I checked ALL of the internet). Samsung support once told me it would work (they told me to try again later, the website was experiencing difficulties), then they told me that NO samsung BD players support it (that is wrong too, there is a hands on review of the feature on CNET on another model), then they told me it was available on the BD-C6900, and would later be available on other players, but could not tell me when.
Also, the AllShare application, which supposedly allows you to stream music, video and photos from your home computer, was nowhere to be found, even though it is advertised on the box itself. I didn't have the willpower to attempt an answer from Samsung's idiotic robot-like support, since I have already decided to return it. (Edit: I later found the the AllShare app after a support call. Still pretty unintuitive, but I was able to set up streaming video from my home PC)
The Netflix interface is not nearly as good as the one on Roku- you can only access items currently in your queue, and can't search other titles.
BluRay playback was gorgeous and problem free, but I only played one disc on it. The player would get 4 stars if all I cared about was BluRay playback. It would get 1 star for the advertised online applications, mostly because determining what the player is actually supposed to do is nearly impossible. Samsung support and documentation also gets 1 star. Their marketing department and website design team should all be fired. All in all, this player was a very frustrating experience.
