What does Blu-ray disc ready mean?

Answer 1

Any tv that has HMDI inputs is Blu-ray ready, but to enjoy the full benefits of Blu-ray, it should be running at 1080p or 1080i resolution. 1080p is considered the better of the two and the p stands for progressive, or one continuous stream, while the i stands for interlaced, and is two streams of information put into one.

Answer 2

It is probably safe to assume that this is a notice on a television for sale in a store. If that is the case, it is no more than a bit of marketing hype. It suggests that other models might not be able to handle Bluray discs.

Here are some technical facts: Bluray is NOT a signal format. It is a storage format that uses high density data on discs. A Bluray player will take that data and deliver it to outputs as a standard video signal format. The format is almost certainly HDMI although analog outputs might be available as well.

An HD television should have one or more HDMI inputs if it is to handle HD content. The claim that a television is "Bluray ready" translates into "HDMI input that handles HD signals"

Sadly, claims like this by manufacturers and retailers simply add to the mass of mis-information that surrounds HD television technology.
