Superb Disc Player Solution For Your 4K TV
The BD-J6300 gives great 4K-upscaled output of EVERYTHING that runs through it....DVD's, Blu-Ray discs, and streaming services. Most competitors only upscale the DVD's.
It also has 4 selectable Video Output modes - of which the Vivid mode can make some colors 'pop' like on an HDR set, even on a non-HDR set.
This player does NOT play the new and pricey '4K' discs (those require a much more expensive player). Its Upscaling of regular DVD's and Blu-Ray's is superb enough, though, you honestly don't need those pricier discs - so use that money to buy more movies.
Most streaming-capable players and 'smart' TV's only have a handful of services installed, and can't handle any more. This one has ALL the major services, and a number of minor ones, pre-installed - and more can be downloaded. Over 300 services are available with this player - much like having a Roku player. And ALL benefit from the 4K upscaling.
An Installation Note: Make sure you have an up to date HDMI Cable, v2.0 or higher (not included).
HDMI Cable connections carry a 2-way Data exchange between the player and TV - and the standards have evolved as the devices have evolved. An older cable (HDMI v1.4 or earlier) might not handle a 4K data stream. This often exhibits itself as a player refusing to play a disc - and with an 'upscales everything' player like the BD-J6300, could block everything.
In addition to the newer Cable, you might also have to go into the TV Submenu's and change the HDMI Port Settings on the TV itself - from their v1.3 or v1.4 factory default, to v2.0 or Auto - to get everything working.
Once you get through that (if it even comes up), everything works BEAUTIFULLY. Enjoy!
