Computer HDMI to Blu Ray HDMI in -- is this possible?

bobland · 20 Jul 2013

I'm in the market for a Blu Ray player. My TV only has 2 HDMI ins. I'm hoping there is a quality BD player that has an HDMI input but I'm thinking this is not easily found. In either case, any suggestions for a decent BD player is still appreciated.

Currently, my HDMI ins are from computer and ROKU. I was running streaming from the computer but there is some kind of frequency mismatch as I get a "tear" line every few seconds. Doesn't happen with the ROKU, plus, the computer output is HD while the ROKU is an old 720p version.

As it turns out, the BD player has a huge selection of wireless apps. The only thing it does not do, so far, is read my hard disk. So, it's a bu-bye for the Roku. Have to admit that YouTube looks great but getting around is not so great. Will probably still use the computer for that. Hope to solve the tearing problem eventually.
