JVC's debut Blu-ray disc player, the XV-BP1, looks likely to be the first from a major Japanese brand to offer hi-def MKV file playback support as part of its multimedia functionality.
It joins LG's BD370 (which it appears to be related to), in also offering buyers the ability to play back DivX and MPEG-4 content from USB.
The model is Profile 2.0 compliant, and is compatible with AVCHD encodings, along with a wide range of home-brew media (BD-ROM, BD-R/RE, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, DVD+R DL and CD-R/CD-RW).
Standard Blu-ray specification highlights include1080p24 playback with Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio bitstream output.
