TiVo aren’t the only ones getting a streaming HD update: Samsung have released a firmware upgrade for their BD-P2500 and BD-P2550 Blu-ray players that enables high-definition streaming from on-demand partner Netflix. Version 2.1 also “improves playback compatibility” of some content.
Samsung had promised the update back in November; currently there are around 300 titles in HD available to view. Aside from Netflix, the two Blu-ray players have HQV video processing, 7.1 analog outputs, Dolby Digital, Digital Plus, TrueHD or dts audio support, together with DTS-HD HR and DTS-HD MA bitstream support. The BD-P2500 is available at a variety of stores, while the BD-P2550 is a Best Buy exclusive.

Samsung Blu-ray player update for streaming HD Netflix now available
Obsessable News Feed —
The update we mentioned last week that adds high definition Netflix support to Samsung's BD-P2500 and BD-P2550 Blu-ray players is now available. If you've got one of those models, head on over to Samsung's website to download the update image. If you already have the October firmware update, your player should be able to automatically detect and install the update. Otherwise, get the download from Samsung's website, and once you burn it to disc and pop it in your player, you should have access to the HD Netflix content that was previously only available from a set-top box through the Xbox 360. Sweetening the deal, as if the HD content wasn't enough, Samsung throws in a few bug fixes to improve compatibility with existing Blu-ray discs. ...
