Java
Your player features Java support so you can get the most out of
the latest Blu-ray Discs. When a Blu-ray Disc loads, explore the title
menu to enjoy extra features such as interactive menus and

HDMI

volumes of data required by the high picture resolutions and advanced

Playing Blu-ray Discs
Playing Blu-ray Discs are a lot like playing DVDs, except Blu-ray Discs have
a higher level of interactivity.
Most of the standard features of DVD playback work the same with Blu-ray
Disc playback. The two most common exceptions are:
• Resume play—Not available on Blu-ray discs
• A-B repeat (playback loop)—Not available on some Blu-ray Discs
Color buttons
The red, green, yellow, and blue buttons on the remote control are used
with interactive menus when operating a Blu-ray Disc that includes
BD-Live applications. For more information about using this kind of disc,
