PMac76 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 Just wondering what the current best non 4K Blu-Ray player would be? I also need a player that could have a multi region mod chip installed, one that plays blu-rays. I only have a full HD projector and never planning to buy any tv again. I can get the Samsung 8500 multi region for $490, but since I don't need 4K I was hoping for something cheaper. My current long time blu-ray player is the Oppo bdp-83 with just a DVD mod chip. Thanks for your thoughts. Peter
betty boop Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 there much of much ness with blu-ray. i too would suggest to stick with what you have. theres no reason i can see at all in upgrading from what you have posted.
PMac76 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 Hi guys, thanks for the responses. I guess the reason I would want an upgrade is in the hope of playing multi region blu-rays. At the moment I can just play mult region DVDs only.

PMac76 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 Well, I guess I'll have to keep an eye out inthe classifieds.
PMac76 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) Don't you just love it when you don't re research something years later and ask stupid questions on forums? I swear I researched changing multi region blu Ray zones on my Oppo bdp-83 years ago with no luck. I just found how to change them without too much hassle this morning. Thanks Sime and al, if you had answered differently I probably wouldn't have gone to the effort. If anyone needs this in the future, it's holding the blue button on the remote while the player is off. Once you hear a beep, press 1,2 or 3 for region A, B or C. Now hopefully I can network over power line so it can be recognized by my Roomie remote. Edited June 23, 2017 by PMac76 1
