The BDP9000 Blu-ray disc (BD) player lets consumers take full advantage of high-definition displays, playing content at native 1080i or 720p video resolutions. The BD player includes a high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) output, an industry-supported connection, providing for all video and audio on a single cable. This allows users to easily connect the Blu-ray player to their existing home televisions. It will also decode standard multi-channel audio. Philips’ unique technology – one pickup with two lenses – allows it to also play standard DVDs and CDs in addition to Blu-ray discs while allowing for more cost-effective production. The supported DVD formats include DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+RW, and DVD+R. Additional features of the BDP9000 include memory card reader, full audio format support, pop-up and always-on menu options; a full color high-definition animated button; and improved bitmap and text subtitles. The increased storage capacity of Blu-ray discs allows the Philips BD player to offer an astounding 25 GB of content on a single-sided disc (50 GB per dual layer) – nearly six times the capacity of traditional DVDs and enough space for two hours of high-definition movies or recorded content.

Better Than I Thought It Would Be – URGENT UPDATE
URGENT UPDATE: INSTALL SAMSUNG 1.9 Driver to the Philips Player To Fix Problems!!!
It’s Feb 2009 and this Blu Ray player was having trouble with certain new Blu Ray releases . . . they wouldn’t play, etc. I was told this unit would be useless soon and Philips was not updating firmware. I searched and found this thread [...] and it suggested installing the Samsung Driver . . . I was skeptical at first, but was about to scrap this thing . . . so I installed the SAMSUNG 1.9 Driver update . . . IT WORKED!!!!!!!
Previous Review Below
Like the reviewer below, I also have the Toshiba HD2 Model for HD DVD. I am using both of these units on a Mitsubishi 55″ 1080i HDTV. Using the Impact Component Video Switcher with Optical Audio connections I have been extremely pleased with this product so far. Why would anyone spend more for a Blu Ray Player? At some point I think the details of the output specs don’t live up to the cost paid. This unit however, exceeds expectations given the current price point of other Blu Ray Players. Bottomline . . . I feel I made an excellent choice buying both this unit and the Toshiba HD2 HD DVD players rather than spending MORE money for just a Panasonic or Sony Blu Ray player.
Excellent Picture and Sound
Just got this player, tried 3 blu ray movies, Ultraviolet, X-Men and Kingdom of Heaven, the picture is beautiful, on par with HD DVD player, also upscales regular dvds very nicely, played Star Wars Episode 3 and it looked great. Fast load times compared to HD DVD player. Very Happy with purchase.
Great Blu-Ray Player
I just picked up this model a few weeks ago, and so far I’m very impressed. Standard dvds look amazing and Blu-rays look absolutely stunning. I’ve read some complaints about the audio options, but I don’t know what that’s about. I have it hooked up through digital optical and multi-channel, and the sound is phenominal. Also, the setup menu options are very user friendly. I don’t know why more people aren’t buying this model. There’s my 2 cents.
