Which takes me back to my original point...BD players ought to perform similarly, but in reality, will they?

My 800 SDI cards has some issues that I do not see on a Panasonic SDI modified player. But that says more about the SDI implementation than the players?

BD players ought to perform identically in terms of their fidelity to the digital audio/video coming from the disc over digital outputs. In reality there will be some instances where this isn't the case and those players should probably be avoided (eg the original Samsung Blu-Ray player with the filtering problems).
