Samsung’s characteristic generosity isn’t only reserved for its premium players. Despite its low price tag, the budget BD-D5500 offers lots of features – most notably Smart Hub, 3D and DLNA – and delivers excellent picture quality to boot. If you’re not bothered about built-in Wi-Fi then this could be the perfect player if you’re on a tight budget

"The BD-D5500 takes 46 seconds to load Terminator Salvation, which is relatively fast."

Can you describe how you administer this test please.

Is it measured from the time you press the eject button to close the tray, or from the moment the tray closes, or some other point.

When do you consider the movie loaded? when the menu choices become available to select, or just when the any of the disc content first becomes visible?
