Oddily lacking base network capabilities
This unit can only be used as a direct disc player, which it does as expected.
However, and i find this extremely strange in 2022, the software on this unit completely lacks of any network player capabilities...so you can connect it to your LAN, but it won't discover any Media Servers on it (i have 3 different ones at home)...actually, there even isn't a menu to play from the network.
I am sorry to have to return this unit, my purpose was to have a network-capable player, and i failed with this product. Maybe the description should have a warning network playing is not present.
I tried to find any SW updates from Denon which could enable this functionality, but....there isn't any SW update at all that i could find, either directly from the unit (there is a menu for network SW upgrades, but no SW is found, not even the version currently on board!), or visiting the Denon website.
Another deficiency i discovered: when i plugged in a hard disk full of music files, all properly classified in directories, the unit does not let you browse by directory, but instead shows you a flat list of 7000 files...in alphabetical order!!! Impossible to manually scroll for 7000 files (or more) until you find the one you intend to play.
I am a Denon aficionado and own another BDP 600 unit from them, was hoping this could be another good purchase, but i failed in choosing.
Sadly, i need to return this back.

Play/pause/arrow botton
In my unit it is very ennoying that by insertion of a dvd/bd the play/pause/forward arrow... could not be used without starting the RC first. A basic operation without the RC is not possible. Up to now, nobody could tell me if this is normal or a problem in my unit.
