Okay, last night I tried to watch the new transformers 3d blu Ray but couldn't because it would not play properly. I have a ps4 and an LG bd645 for 3d blu Ray players with a pioneer vsx 821(I think?). I usually use the lg since it has a remote and usually plays blu Rays better than the ps4. When I started transformers it played the menu fine. The audio was fine and so was the 3d. I made sure that Dolby atmos was selected for audio. I don't have atmos setup but that option is also the same option as Dolby truehd which it will default to if you don't have an atmos receiver. So I start the film but as soon as I get to the title sequence the audio is cutting out every few seconds, and when it cuts out I can see on the receiver that it will switch to Dolby pro logic 2 as it cuts out for a split second and then back to truehd. So I can't watch it like that so I figure I will use my ps4. Nope, with ps4 there is a bad delay of the video, making it not match up with the audio. I tried turning 24hz playback off in ps4 menu which is supposed to help but it only helped slightly, it was still off.So what gives? Could updating the firmware on the lg player fix the audio cutting out? Could the fact that this is the first blu Ray with Dolby atmos be the cause of the audio cutting out? Anybody have a ps4 and able to fix their sync issue?Finally , I'm considering just buying a good standalone 3d blu Ray player since aparantly the lg one I have and the ps4 are not that great. Are there any good ones for around $100 that would be better than my cheap lg player? For example I could buy the sony bdp s5200 at best buy for about $100 on my way home tonight for about $100. I just want one with a fast interface that doesn't lag and has all options for video and audio and 3d. Don't care about wifi or smart functionality.
