Pioneer BDP-330 1080p Streaming Blu-ray Disc Player (Black)
Without question, the greatest success of all Pioneer's players is the ability to recreate film as the director intended. And as movies are the combined work of many people, from cinematographers and set designers to Foley and makeup artists, every detail is taken into consideration in order to help you get closer to the ultimate cinematic experience. In the past, film displayed on television required stretching 24 frames-per-second to match the 30 frames-per-second of television. More often than not, this would result in annoying motion judder and unnatural on-screen images. With True 24fps at up to 1080p resolution, you see only what the director intended as all film sources are displayed at their actual speed. The BDP-330 provides up to 1920 x 1080p resolution for unrivaled picture quality. And with True 24fps, you’ll see your movies as the director intended.The BDP-330 offers simultaneous HDMI & Component Video Output: Enjoy High Definition Video from both the HDMI and Component Video connections. (Component Video limited to 1080i Resolution.)The BDP-330 also allows online Streaming Content: Enjoy online content from YouTube and read RSS Feeds when connected to the internet. Additional services available soon. This amazing Pioneer product allows for iPhone/iPod Touch Remote Control: Using our free iControlAV application (available for download from the Apple App StoreSM) users can control most major functions of the BDP-330 with their iPhone/iPod Touch.

The BDP-330 has the capability to show customers every detail of a film, allowing for the best possible viewing experience. Televisions in the past have displayed images at 30 frames-per-second, while films were created at 24 frames-per-second, causing a distorted playback. This product addresses that issue, running at True 24 frames per second at up to 1080p resolution. Though its picture quality is unrivaled in the industry, the BDP-330’s features are what truly separate it from products of comparable prices. The player accepts online streaming content, allowing YouTube, Netflix, and RSS feeds to be viewed via the internet. In addition, this product allows for iPhone/iPod touch remote control, using a free application that is available for download from the Apple® App Store. The BDP-330 serves as another example why Pioneer is at the forefront of Blu-ray technology and an industry leader in picture quality. Highest Quality Video Playback Blu-ray The Pioneer BDP-330 offers customers the best possible video playback quality, and with a full 1920 x 1080p resolution, viewing is unrivaled in the industry. In addition, the True 24 frames-per-second film display eliminates the jittering and distortion caused by many televisions and media players. This product’s deep color capability gives a level of color accuracy that has been previously unattainable in media display technology, expanding display colors into the billions and taking precision beyond what the human eye can see. Pioneer has emerged at the top of the industry, giving customers a viewing experience unlike anything seen before. Inputs and Outputs Upscaling DVDs This Blu-ray player is also compatible with DVDs and CDs. Because of its high quality performance, the DVD viewing experience is enhanced on this player, allowing customers to view their non-Blue-ray video collection at near HD quality. CDs are also playable on this machine, precisely presented with minimal jitter. Enhanced Audio Technology The sound quality from this Blu-ray player is incredible, delivering a crisp effect that immerses the viewer into the film. The audio decoding in the BDP-330 is unmatched, delivering sound that can be interpreted by any speaker system and is compatible with all advanced formats such as Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTSHD High Resolution, and DTS-HD Master Audio. Advanced Connectivity Streaming from Content Sites Connecting your Blu-ray player to the internet has never been so easy. With an Ethernet cable port and the optional wireless dongle, access to video from sites like YouTube expands viewing opportunities for customers. The BDP330 now offers Netflix compatibility, allowing you to view movies from the internet on your Blu-ray player. Wireless Ready The BDP-330 can connect easily to your home wireless network with the purchase of the AS-WL 100 Wireless Adapter (sold separately). This adapter is 802.11/n compatible and can support WPA, WPA2, AES, and TKIP encryption. It features an on-screen setup, allowing for quick configuration on any network. BD-Live Support Remote application user interface. This Blu-ray player is BD-Live compatible, making it easy to access online games and other bonus content in high-definition.

Pioneer has made this player easy to use and convenient to control right from your Smartphone. Inputs and Outputs USB Ethernet HDMI Optical Audio RCA Audio Composite Inputs and Outputs
Most helpful customer reviews 74 of 83 people found the following review helpful. Unfortunately, a thinly disguised Sharp BD-HP70U By WDH UPDATE: Netflix was added via firmware on roughly 8/14The news of Pioneer's departure from the plasma market shook the AV community a little over two years ago. Questions abound as to what the future would hold for Pioneer in a post Kuro world. Fans of their Blu-ray players - begun in earnest with the 51FD/05FD - wondered if a joint venture with Sharp would lead to a dilution of the high quality A/V performance at a very reasonable price point. The release of the budget-priced Pioneer BDP-120 was to some a harbinger of this venture manifesting itself in what appeared to an amateur eye as a largely re-badged Sharp player veiled beneath a Pioneer chassis. Its performance was nowhere near its 320 and 23FD brethren and its price point reflected such.Emerging news of the 320's replacement came from European sources boasting Youtube streaming, which hinted the promise that US customers might get Netflix streaming or even some of the other instantly streamed video sources. The BDP-330 was largely unannounced until I found one in a Best Buy half-an-hour's drive from my house.Upon lifting the all-white box, I noticed immediately that it was light, which caused me to prolong any disappointment until I got an opportunity to put it through its paces. I was a bit surprised the box made no mention of Youtube or any streaming services. Upon unboxing the player, I was a bit surprised at how small and shallow its profile really was. It makes the 320 look downright large. The biggest immediate disappointment was the rear output panel, which was identical to the European press photos completely devoid of multichannel analogue outputs. The Burr-Brown DAC-equipped MCH analogue outputs were one of the 320's strongest selling points. The player was made in April of 2010 in China; please note this is a departure from the Malaysian-built 320 and later 51s. The 120 was also made in Sharp and has a number of rear panel similarities including the power cord input's design. The player also shares the exact same model number remote as the 120 - VXX3351, which appears nearly identical to the 320, but including some strangely labeled buttons (page +/- and keylock) missing the video adjust button (this all but eliminated the hope that this might be a "real" Pioneer for me).Upon firing up the player, I was greeted by the familiar Pioneer menu, but a very different setup menu that was very similar to the 120 best I can remember. Here's where the disappointment turns real: there is no Netflix; only Youtube and RSS. Gone is the slicky black background menu and appeared is the simple text and icon menu I remember from Sharp players. No choice for colorspace or high-speed HDMI...Just resolution. For folks who have been accustomed (spoiled) by the amount of tweaking possible with the 320/23/51/05, this is a huge disappointment.All video adjustments options of the 320/23 are GONE. No Preset modes like Pioneer PDP or Projector. Once again, just resolution. This player is certainly not of the linneage of the current 320 or 51 with their extensive picture adjustment menus and presets. From this standpoint, the 330 is very disappointing.In respects of load times, the quick start feature added very little discernable benefit to load times, that were very pokey. In fact, the current 320 was faster in actual load times in all the discs I tested than the 330. Other than the 2 second power off eject time, the Pioneer BDP-330's load times were embarrasingly so for a 2010 player whose peer group can load the same discs in a third of the time.Player Eject Dark Knight Casino Royale POC I - Coin POC 1 -Disney Castle Total SpeedPioneer BDP-320 18 36 36 39 62 191 5.5Pioneer BDP-23FD 18 36 36 39 62 191 5.5Pioneer BDP-51FD 33 45 44 39 73 234 4.5Pioneer BDP-330* 2 39 34 47 63 185 5.5* with quickstart engagedIn testing deinterlacing capabilities with
