Samsung Electronics said it plans to introduce a disc player that supports the two competing high-definition DVD formats. The Korean company's Duo HD, or BD-UP5000, player will fully support HD DVD and Blu-ray.
"Consumers are hungry for more HD content but are currently confused about competing formats," Dongsoo Jun, executive vice president of the Digital AV Division at Samsung," said in a statement. "Samsung's Duo HD player will allow consumers access to every HD movie title available regardless of the authoring format."
Samsung is not the first to announce it would offer a duo-format player. LG Electronics, also based in Korea, unveiled its device in January at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
