I have that very same Samsung blu-ray player and can definitely recommend it. It has dual hdmi ouputs so it can output 3D on a 3D screen while sending the audio to a BeoSystem 3. This player can play just about anything you throw at it in terms of video or audio files using filed burned to a DVD, filed on a USB stick, or even an external hard drive

That matching the B&O perfectly. I considered that BD player but needed the Samsung BD player that has

I just bought a Samsung 3D TV last weekend and can verify that the older, non-HDMI 1.4 BeoSystem 3 CAN INDEED allow 720P 3D on a cable box with the video input passing through the BeoSystem 3. However, 1080p 3D blu-ray will not work passing through the BeoSystem 3. Regardless, you must have a 3D compatible screen. For the 3d blu-ray, I used a dual-HDMI

I bought and tried the Twonky app on the iPad. It worked at first but only for a few songs. Then, it kept saying that it couldn't play the song.

All of these new features require the BeoSound 5 to act as audio master. Otherwise

[quote user="Stan"] Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is all about playing music that is stored on your phone through your BS5, not using your phone to select and play songs already stored on the BS5... correct?
