To enjoy your DVD and Blu-ray collections usually you will need a DVD or Blu-ray player. The obvious difference between a DVD player and a Blu-ray player is the laser technology which used to record and play back the data. There are also other differences between them, including storage capacity, image resolution and player compatibility.

Storage Capacity

Single DVD player can store about 4.7 GB of data. Dual DVD player can store twice the amount of data at 8.7 GB.

Single Blu-ray player store approximately 25 GB of data. Double Blu-ray player can hold about 50 GB.

Laser Technology

DVD players use a red laser at 650nm wave length to read DVD discs.

Blu-ray players use a blue laser to read the stored information. The wave length is 405nm. This allows for closer and more precise reading of information stored on the disc.

Image Resolution

Almost all DVD players have a standard definition resolution of 480 or enhanced definition resolution of 520.

Blu-ray players are designed for high-definition(HD) display, offering the best 1080p picture quality available. Some of them can display Ultra High Definition (4K) .

Player Compatibility

A basic DVD can be played on both DVD players and Blu-ray players. However, Blu-ray disc can be only played on Blu-ray players, because the red laser used in DVD players is too large to read the tiny grooves in a Blu-ray disc.

People’s needs are varied, and we can see the benefits of each. So it may difficult to choose one. Pumpkin stocks both DVD players and Blu-ray players. You can take a look at.

 

I decided to reach out to onlinestore@autopumpkin.com to clarify a few potential issues before purchasing, they were able to answer all my questions pre-purchase so I decided to give it a go.

I was happily surprised with user interface, functionality and build quality.

Onboard Google maps is great however it requires a wifi connection from my phone which isn’t a problem as phone is in a wireless charging cradle.

Spotify works nicely via bluetooth music however I could just download the app if I wanted full functionality.

Canbus interface is great too as when I reverse the steering wheel interacts with the guidelines so now I’ve ordered a reversng camera, ignition stays on until I remove the key fully and display shows what door is open (when I first fitted the product the doors were opposite but customer support guided me through what settings needed changing).

All in all it has turned out to exceed expectations as too has customer support both before and after purchase.

The only problem I encountered with this was the antenna connection, it is a twin unit with both antenna on the one connection, it was easy for me to disassemble one of these and fit another single adaptor as I had one handy, I let support know about this so if your factory unit has 2 separate antenna connections maybe reach out to see if they have a plug and play remedy available by the time you go to buy.
