If Panasonic upgraded the UB9000 and UB820, what features would matter most to you? Both players are great, but the hardware could be improved. If Panasonic ever did a refresh, there are some real upgrades people would love to see. The disc drive and playback are the biggest issues Panasonic 4K players have right now. Potential Upgrades: Stronger, faster load times, quieter disc drive Better disc readability so discs don’t skip Error correction options for damaged discs (buffering 10 or 20 seconds internally to extract information from damaged discs) Better HDR tone‑mapping all the way up to 10,000 nits Direct Output (true 1080p and 4K output support with no scaling like now) Updated processor for a better UI and smoother menus Instant Turn On with super-fast boot‑up time Better remote options like repeat chapter and title from the remote Better display options like time and track numbers for music Improved HDR10+ and Dolby Vision handling Dolby Vision 2 More stable firmware updates Play all major video codecs through USB with full thumbnail support and full network playback Dolby Atmos and DTS:X support over USB 8K support over file playback Would you buy a Version 2 of the UB9000 or UB820 if it had these improvements? @panasonic @PanasonicNA @Panasonic_cp
