I shall draw this issue to Samsungs attention and I expect it will be addressed in the future firmware release. In the meantime, this is a fast and powerful Blu-ray player at a very good price. Samsung is on a winner here. RRP: $699.00 GadgetGuy Ratin...
Abstract: Samsung has been one of the most aggressive manufacturers in the Blu-ray market, releasing the very first player, the BD-P1000, and then following it up with the BD-P1200 and the BD-P1400 relatively quickly. The BD-P1500 is the next product in the line...

Excellent video playback, Spectacular playback Audio, Build Quality, Aesthetics, Availability
Slower than average load times, No alternate front panel controls, Substandard Hardware Pack (composite cables for a HD player, are you kidding me?!), No digital coaxial or analog 7.1 channel connections
