US Blu-ray players and 50hz compatibility

US Blu-ray Players compatible with 50hz content:

LG BD 370 [Can convert 50hz content to 60hz]
LG BH200 [Outputs 50hz content at 50hz]
Momitsu BDP-899
Oppo BDP-83
Panasonic DMP-BD30 prior to firmware 1.6
Panasonic DMP-BD60 [Outputs 50hz content at 50hz]
Pioneer Elite BDP-05FD [Outputs 50hz content at 50hz, also up-converts 50hz content]

Samsung PD-P1600 [Outputs 50hz content at 60hz]

Note: You will need a 50hz compatible display to play back 50hz content with some of the above US players (eg. Panasonic DMP-BD60), though others (including the Samsung players) convert the content to another frame rate (eg. 60hz) so they don't need a 50hz compatible TV.

US Blu-ray Players NOT compatible with 50hz content:


Panasonic DMP-BD30 with firmware 1.6 or later
Sony BD-S350
Sony Playstation 3
