Daewoo has shown off its first Blu-ray Disc player, the slim blue-hued DBP-1000, at the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin. The company said that the player supports the full Blu-ray specification, even the ability to access BD Live online content and present picture-in-picture material. It fully supports Blu-ray interactivity features.
Early Blu-ray players lacked support for many of these features because the specification had yet to be completed. The new Daewoo player provides full 1080p HD content through its HDMI output and has the ability to upscale standard definition DVD to Full HD resolution. As a nice extra bonus, the player support DivX content too.
The player is compatible with all recordable/re-writing CD and DVD formats along with BD-R and BD-RE. It also sports a USB port on the front of the player to access content from a flash storage device. The company has not announced any possible release date yet or given any clue to how much it would cost.
