Just got a new Samsung LE32R41 screen and need an upscaling player to go with it. Anyone recommend one that plays xvid, ac3 and has a HDMI connector? Budget is around £100-£150, how about a Samsung HD850 for example?
Thanks

Got my Samsung 26" Lcd conected to Samsung 950 player via HMDI and happy with the result. Think the black 950 compliments the screen.

I dont think the 950 decodes Xvid/AC3 - can anyone clarify? I also see in the forums that there is the Kiss DP600 (but seems to suffer from some problems) and I have seen the Snazio floating about.
Currently I have XBMC which decodes brilliantly Xvid/AC3 - does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Kiss-DP600 (FW problems)
Zenzonic (HDMI, but not in this country yet)
Snazio (DVI not HDMI)
H&B DNX-8620 (DVI not HDMI)
Transgear (DVI not HDMI)
to name a few....

There is an upscaling LG model which does what you want. LG are very good as they play Packed Bitstream XVid files.
