is this model Blue ray compatible?

Sorry, I've never used Blu-Ray, but I don't believe it is. This unit has worked very well for dubbing DVD's and tapes to DVD, but I can't find my owner's manual - I just moved and it's in one of many boxes. I did some online Googling and the specs I found that said what formats are playable did not include Blu-Ray.

If you play in 720 or 1080 It is not compatible because this DVD recorder is maximum 480p

Lyn, I'll check and get back to you. It does not support Blu-Ray - every time I turn it on it has that display in big bold letters.

It should work. Only reason it shouldn't be working is if the HDMI port on the Blue Ray is not giving enough power. If you do get it, I suggest trying it on a TV with HDMI and try connecting it to a VGA Laptop

Don't know about that. I hooked up a sata drive and it works okay. Best to contact the maker of the blu ray drive for info.

I own the same player but I bought in Australia. It works fine with Blue-ray Region B and with some Region A discs (I'm not sure why?), but this is not a region free player.

You need to have dvd or bluray player software mine works great. Burns blueray and dvds fine also as long as you specify the speed and not use autodetect

Of course it's compatible. It's the video signal that gets captured, not the disc format. All a blu ray player is is a dvd player with a smaller wavelength laser. This means the disc can hold more information, giving it a higher resolution. As long as you use component video to component video, S-video to S-video or HDMI to HDMI it doesn't matter where the original signal came from. I use this thing with old VHS in order to digitize old home movies. It even works with digital camcorders.

This Blue Ray is read only so I don't think so. It's mostly a dvd player but it reads Blue Ray but does not play Blue Ray.

Yes, mine is a Sony blueray and it worked fine. If you go to the Sony website and find the product, I believe it lists the players its compatible with.

Tried a blue ray disc in mine and it did not play. So, no I believe it does not have a blue ray disc reader. But you cans till get High definition videos from the internet or some other site and it plays very well with the HDMI port to a HD tv.

You should wait like me because blue ray players with profile 1.0 and 1.1 wont be able to play future discs. Since blue ray is coming out with 2.0 players later this year, newer disc will need the technical specs of the newer players. I was in the market on buying a blue ray player as well but then i read this http://www.cooltidbits.net/2008/01/before-you-buy-blu-ray-player-read-this.html

Yes, I have successfully played DVDs on this model. The user manual says it plays DVD-video, DVD-R, DVD-R DL in addition to Blu-ray. It also plays CDs, SD cards, and USB media.

The manual lists Blue-ray discs among the ones that CANNOT BE PLAYED. So, no it won't play Blue-ray
