Stunning picture, but slow to boot up
|
I received the Toshiba HD-A2 as a Christmas gift (2007). On the whole I really, really like it. The picture quality of HD-DVD's is fantastic and the sound is awesome. I have this device connected to a Toshiba DLP HDTV, a JVC receiver and Bose Accousti-Max Series II speakers.
Pros:
1. Great picture w/up to 1080i/720p
2. Great sound
3. Ethernet connection
4. Very good up-conversion of standard DVDs
Cons:
1. Very slow to boot-up. It takes about a minute to warm up before you can load a disc.
2. Does not allow USB based wi-fi cards. This was an issue for me because my TV room does not have a network drop.
3. Internet update process is slow (> 15 minutes)
If you get a HD-DVD player, be sure to have a network drop near by for initial setup. It is important to get the latest updates. Otherwise you may pop in a HD-DVD disc only to have it not load/play. This happened to me on my first disc. But once I applied the latest firmware all was good.
