So, I can play 3d dvds with a Blu Ray 3d external drive with USB port?

Yes, that is how I use it: a 3d blu-ray player with a USB port and HDMI connection to the TV. The sound is OK, I plan to upgrade with a sound bar or hook it to my stereo system.

No. The TV cannot decode a Blu-Ray (or DVD) disk. You must either connect a stand-alone player or Blu-Ray capable PC to read and decode the disk and output the signal to the HDMI port on the tv. To confirm, I plugged my external USB optical drive into the USB port and was unable to read the disk at all.The USB port is intended to read and decode media files - typically avi, mp3, mp4 and mkv directly from a flash or laptop hard drive. This also works for 3d files in the side-by-side or over-under formats.

There is no optical drive on this unit. You would have to purchase an external. Yes, it does have USB 2.0 & 3.0 ports for an external.

I don't use it to play Blu Ray discs but I believe if you get a decent video application that it will play Blu Ray discs.

Yes, although I never used it. The directions stated that you can play movies from the usb port.

No, it's not 3d.Try looking up the "Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi"

I have played with a third party software, Blu ray movies. So it should also play DVD movies too.

Yes pretty much anything USB or SD will work. However I tried hooking up my external hard drive and it took so long to load I gave up. Although my HD is like 400gb so that's most likely why. But I've never had issues putting like 20 movies on a flash drive and playing them. Watch out for the file type tho, MKV files won't work

No. Theres NO optical drive. A bit disappointing. I picked up an external for 30 bucks that was also blu ray.

No there's not, the unit is too small, but there are 3 usb 3.0 ports and a thumb drive is a much better thing to use than a CD or DVD, and you can always plug in an external CD DVD Burner. I've had this unit for over a year and a half now and I still luv it. It has an HDMI port to plug into as big screen TVand I can watch all my down loaded movies and photos ect.

Don't think that's possible. Pretty sure you need the USB port - plugged directly into my DVD player's USB port.

yes.. just be sure the "software" will play MTS (transport streams) and the USB drive has enough storage space 1 hr of high def video is approx 16bg streams are blu-ray compatible i play them with VLC player and Media player classic

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.

Yes , it has both, you can play any DVD/Blue Ray Disc or even Divx, and same apply to the USB port, where you can play mostly any kind of files

you do need a 3D blu ray player in order to play in 3D. As far as the other question I use Windows OS.

The drive doesn't come with software to playback. 3D playback is basically the ability of the drive to support 3D content on a bluray disc. But you'll need a 3D display device, 3D supported video display card, and 3D supported video playback software. Nero is an example of 3D playback software (most recent version that is)
