I'm looking to replace my Blue Ray player but I'm somewhat confused by the new tech and options.
I use it for playing disks, it'd hooked up to a projector (HDMI) and a DAC (Optical). I want to replace it with something that can do more. There is a PC in the room but the PC and Blue Ray player are not connected.
I'd like a player that plays disks, multi-region would be a bonus, but can also play video from the PC and/or over the network. NetFlix for example. I can hook the player up to the network easily. It must have an optical output to feed the DAC or I may be able to use coaxial but it's a long run. Not bothered about streaming from a phone.
What should I be looking for? I've looked at current Blue Ray players but a lot of them seem to have dropped the digital audio outputs in favor of just having a few HDMI outputs.
Fang queue :0)
