I used to have a BDP-S570 and I could never get it to play an MKV. I'm afraid that 'on paper' streaming capabilities of Sony Blu-ray players differ somewhat from reality in my experience.

says with sofware update will be 3D , AS FOR MKV ON A USB UM can you be a little more specific please john.

I believe that that site is wrong. AFAIK, 3D only starts on the 4-series, firmware or not.

Be more specific how? I was saying that if the file is 3D then it won't be recognised, but this is speculation on my part. Googling will give you some resources on mkv play in general, since it seems a bit hit or miss.

Sony S470 / 480 will suit you well.

Although from the OP's experience with the '370 and my experience with the '570, I think it's a pretty certain bet that neither is going to play MKV files, which is what the OP wants to do

ok then different slant on this , basically the mkv file plays direct when usb is plugged in the tv ok , but sound wont be through the amp , if i run a optical into my amp will the sound be true 3D as only comes up as dolby surrond ???
