Just got a new Samsung LE32R41 screen and need an upscaling player to go with it. Anyone recommend one that plays xvid, ac3 and has a HDMI connector? Budget is around £100-£150, how about a Samsung HD850 for example?

Thanks

Anyone?

Got my Samsung 26" Lcd conected to Samsung 950 player via HMDI and happy with the result. Think the black 950 compliments the screen.

I dont think the 950 decodes Xvid/AC3 - can anyone clarify? I also see in the forums that there is the Kiss DP600 (but seems to suffer from some problems) and I have seen the Snazio floating about.

Currently I have XBMC which decodes brilliantly Xvid/AC3 - does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

Kiss-DP600 (FW problems)
Zenzonic (HDMI, but not in this country yet)
Snazio (DVI not HDMI)
H&B DNX-8620 (DVI not HDMI)
Transgear (DVI not HDMI)

to name a few....

Mmm, not heard of some of those - thanks

I will dig around avforums for some reviews

There is an upscaling LG model which does what you want. LG are very good as they play Packed Bitstream XVid files.

Thanks, do you have the model number?
