    I'll just say, in my experience, the LG players tend to play more formats, more reliably than all the others. MKV, Divx, H264, Xvid, MPEG4, AVI, AVCHD, MPEG2, you name it, it can play it. The BD5xx series would even stream VOB files, but that has been eliminated in the latest generation :(

    I agree with the billbillw. The LG5xx players play just about everything, but the 670 for instance doesn't stream some files properly (ex. 1080p / dd m2ts files). Not sure why LG is moving backwards..
    Dali Optikon 1Mk2
    NAD D3020 V2
    Schiit Bifrost 2/64

    ..the rest are headphone setups.
