Even though it is a simple looking disc player, the LG BD630 Network Blu-ray Disc Player’s appearance is deceiving.

The interface is simple with play/pause, stop and eject buttons as well as the on/off button. A USB slot is on the right side, and in the center is the disc drawer. The layout and little footprint is only part of the story for this great player.

This compact and light player comes with a printed manual, which is good, a basic cable, and a well-designed remote that uses one AAA battery that is supplied. The player features a number of ports such as RCA audio out, component video, HDMI, coax digital audio and a LAN port. Due to the very affordable price, the device lacks the ability to play video files as it’s not DLNA enabled. To allow streaming videos, you will need to attach a thumb drive or external hard disk drive. Though available on more expensive models, this player can’t do it by way of ethernet connection.

This player can connect to a 1080p HDTV or a regular analogue television. The video outputs adapts to the TV resolution and you will have the option to stretch the picture as needed. As mentioned earlier, connecting an external hard drive or a USB thumb drive is rather easy to do. It is able to support up to 4 drive partitions and is not very picky about the formatting of the hard drive. Installing the player should be pretty easy and quick to do. The player can quickly load and playback Blu Ray dvds. For a brand new machine these days, the DVD up-conversion to 1080p was merely average, but much better than average when compared with earlier machines. It has a sturdy disc tray that goes in and out easily, without any troublesome noises.

The unit has the ability to have the firmware updated when necessary. Utilize the Lan port or download from the LG web site, and create a disc and then play it on a USB drive. It’ll be interesting to find out if LG continues to support this machine when further firmware updates are required. The fact that this player is able to play local media files, can make the retail price a worthwhile bargain. The cost of this Blu-ray is worth it as it could also do up-conversions of DVD, it really is fast loading and more.

The LG BD630 Network Blu-ray Disc Player is everything that it says it really is. Visit their site for the most current information, and read the reviews prior to choosing, but it seems like a winner.
