Panasonic DMP-BDT100 Blu-ray Player Reviewed

Panasonic has introduced a lower-priced alternative to its top-of-the-line DMP-BDT350 3D Blu-ray player. The new DMP-BDT100 ($249.95) lacks the dual HDMI outputs found on the BDT350, but it does include the VIERA Cast Web platform, DLNA streaming, and...

The DMP-BDT100 supports 3D playback, when mated with other 3D-capable components ; The player supports 1080p/24 playback of Blu-ray discs ; It has internal decoding and bitstream output of high-resolution audio sources ; It supports BD-Live and...

This model does not include dual HDMI outputs to send separate signals to your 3D TV and A/V receiver ; It also lacks multichannel analog audio outputs, so it's not the best choice for someone who owns an older, non-HDMI A/V receiver ; WiFi is not...

Panasonic was wise to add a less-expensive 3D-capable Blu-ray player to its line in order to compete with Samsung and Sony, but the DMP-BDT100's $249.95 MSRP is still a bit higher than the entry-level 3D models from those other guys. Still, if you're...

Panasonic DMP-BDT100

Panasonic has been manufacturing various consumer electronic components for many years now and their recent offerings still show that they are top competitor. Their current lineup of VIERA HDTVs has impressed customers as their top models demonstrate...

There are some minor sacrifices made such as the user interface which is not as friendly as the higher-end DMP-BDT300 and the connection ports are basic. But small home theater systems that include a large 3D HDTV make the DMP-BDT100 a great companion...

Good Player for What It Does!

I have a Samsung 67"LED DLP TV. This Panasonic is its best 3d companion. This player and its more expensive siblings are the only other players that currently offer the checkerboard option. that is what is needed for 3D in the older Samsung and...

Great product, especially for the price

I think this is a great entry level 3D player, but as a 2D player it is more than most people need. Contrary to another post, I was able to get it to work with my Harmony 670 universal remote.

Excellent picture quality, simple menu structure, easy setup

S/N ratio not as high

Does not support using a universal remote

The product is ok, nothing great, but the fact that In today's world you would not allow the use of a universal remote to control your product is ridiculous. Add to that poor documentation, poor customer service, and a web site that really needs some...

Not bad video

3D is only ok, does not support using a universal remote

WOW Blu-ray !

If left on Standby it starts quick, but uses power. Turned off it uses no power, but is slow to awake and load.

An excellent player, a very good value

This 3D player is used with a 3D TV. The remote is complex but progressively rewarding.Requires some patience. 2D to 3D upconversion is good. Have not yet used it with a real 3D movie.
