paulsalter 84 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Morning All I am after replacing my old E series Blu-ray with one of the above models due to it getting bit slow now Has anyone used either of the above models with the Emby app and how do they perform Both have the Smart Hub feature not the new Tizen, just wondering if the J (2015) model is worth nearly double the price Thanks for any info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcg 874 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hi @@paulsalter I'm not familiar with the feature set, but if the Emby Samsung client is a deal-breaker for you, you should note that any J-Series support is really coincidental. Some people who found their J-Series TV had SmartHub report that the app works fine with just a few oddities where the font colour changes. However, I'd have thought they would see quite a bit on unnecessary transcoding. H-Series on the other hand has a long section in the codec support page and should give the best compatibility with your media files. I've been thinking I should add J-Series to that as it's abilities are likely similar to H-Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsalter 84 Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 Thanks for the info It looks like I will probably be going for the H Did some reading yesterday and cannot see any advantage of the J model Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammyyu 0 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Sorry to hijack this thread, but I am curious as to if other lower end H model Bluray players such as Samsung BD-HM59CZA will work with the Emby client. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcg 874 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Judging by the user manual it has all the same codec support as any other H series device and should be a good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsalter 84 Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 Hi, The only reason I didn't mention the other models in the 'H' range, is when I was checking them out (I am in the UK), the H6500 is the only H model with the full app store, the other models all had the Opera store, not sure if this affects manually installing the Emby app or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
