Before you buy a Sylvania Blu Ray player…

1.  Can I play my existing collection of DVDs and CDs on a Blu ray player?

DVDs – yes.  Sylvania blu ray players can play standard DVDs.  Most can even “upscale” your video DVD playback so it looks a lot better than when viewed using a DVD player.

CDs – probably.  Most Sylvania blu ray players can play standard CDs, including CD-Rs and CD-RWs, but you should check the specifications or features of the Blu ray player you are considering to make sure.

If you have “non-standard” DVDs or CDs, you should take them with you to try out in the player before you buy it.

2.  Can I use my existing TV?

You can connect your Sylvania blu ray player to any TV that has composite video inputs (what your current DVD player is probably using, will be labeled something like AV IN) or an HDMI connection, but if you want to “see the difference” you need an HD-compatible TV.  You must check the connections on your TV and make sure the Blu Ray player you are considering has compatible connections.

3.  Can I use my existing sound system?

The reviews seem to indicate that the answer to this is frequently “no”. Your Sylvania blu Ray player and sound system must have compatible connections.  If they don’t, you won’t be able to use them together.

4.  Can I play video games on my Sylvania blu Ray player?

If you want to play video games on your Blu Ray player, buy a Sony Playstation.

5.  Can I play music and/or videos from the Internet?

Maybe.  Check the list of features for your Sylvania blu Ray player.  Some will have an Ethernet connection, but it’s just for updates.  The list of features will say Netflix or Pandora, or perhaps Amazon on Demand.

6.  Is it easy to set up?

If you were able to set up your DVD player, you should be able to set up a Sylvania blu Ray player.  The outputs on a Blu Ray player are clearly marked.  Some Blu Ray players only have an HDMI connection, so you need to make sure you have a TV and a Blu Ray player with compatible connections.
