Blu-ray -

http://www.amazon.com/Sony-BDP-S185-Blu-Ray-Disc-Player/dp/B005NEZDUA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1375 nnected my Blu-ray to the internet for upgrades, ever. What exactly do the upgrades improve?

Eh, my TV is a 42" wide-screen (16:9), 1080p. Could be a magnification issue, I suppose, but I don't see the "static" you're talking about, even when watching cable HD programming. My HDMI cable came with my Toshiba player I think, so nothing special there. Maybe your cable is actually damaged. I think I'd replace that first, just to see, as Crowley said.

And oh yeah, I do have mine connected by ethernet cable so I have the software upgrades too. You never know when there might be an issue there.

Thanks for all the responses. I have ordered a new (cheap cable) for starters. I am getting the player updates in a few minutes as well.

I'll keep trying different things if that doesn't help (more expensive equipment/etc).

Thanks again everyone !
