Which BD players are capable of 1080p60/1080p50 (I will call it "FullHD") playback?
Obviously, there are no pressed BDs in this format, so it can only be a burned disc or a memory card:
* Recordable DVD ("AVCHD disc")
* Recordable BD
* Secure Digital memory card (for some Panasonic and JVC players, maybe some other players accept memory cards as well).
Where FullHD would come from? Presently, the only source of getting FullHD without rendering it in some video editing application is Panasonic "600" and "700" camcorder families, and some Sanyo camcorders. Video is in AVC format at bitrates of 24 Mbit/s (Sanyo) or 28 Mbit/s (Panasonic).
Burned to DVD to create an AVCHD disc such a video can be played in certain BD players.
If someone of you would like to test 1080p60 on your BD player, I can upload an ISO of an AVCHD disc with 1080p60 footage.
UPDATE 2010-12-02: See post #9 below for the ISO file and instructions: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...5#post19579825
I will start the list, which I will update as comments are added to the thread.
--- 1080p60 ---
Panasonic DMP-BD80(K) -- hiccup-free playback from an SD card; when playing back from a DVD-R hiccups occur at bitrates higher than 18-20 Mbit/s. That is, native video from Panasonic camcorders will likely stutter when played from a disc.
UPDATE 2010-12-03: Pioneer BDP-51FD / Elite BDP-05FD -- plays 1080p60 @ 27.5 Mbit/s from a regular DVD+R disc without hiccups. Thanks, flint350: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1294889
UPDATE 2010-12-03: OPPO BDP-83: plays regular 1080i AVCHD, clips encoded as 1080p60 stutter even at 13 Mbit/s, both from DVD and USB media.
OPPO BDP-93: plays 1080p60 @ 27.5 Mbit/s without hiccups from both DVD and USB media. Thanks, wmcclain.
