The operation of this product and restrictions on this product may vary depending on your time of pur­chase as those restrictions may be adopted and/or changed by AACS after the production of this product. Furthermore, BD-ROM Mark and BD+ are addi­tionally used as content protection systems for BD format, which imposes certain restrictions including playback restrictions for BD-ROM Mark and/or BD+ protected contents.

Introduction

BD-ROM Disc Features

BD-ROM Discs can store 25 GB (single layer) or 50 GB (dual layer) on a single sided disc - about 5 to 10 times the capacity of a DVD. BD-ROM Discs also support the highest quality HD video available in the industry (up to 1920 x 1080) ­Large capacity means no compromise on video quality. Furthermore, a BD-ROM disc has the same familiar size and look as DVD.
The following BD-ROM disc features are disc dependent and will vary.
Appearance and navigation of features will also vary from disc to disc.
Not all discs will have the features described below.
BD-ROM, Hybrid disc have both BD-ROM and DVD (or CD) layers on one side. On such discs, BD-ROM layer will be only played back in this player.
Video highlights
The BD-ROM format for movie distribution supports three highly advanced video codecs, including MPEG-2, MPEG4 AVC (H.264), and SMPTE VC1. HD video resolutions are also available:
1920 x 1080 HD
1280 x 720 HD
For High-Definition Playback
To view high-definition contents from BD-ROM discs, an HDTV is required. Some discs may require HDMI OUT for viewing of high-definition contents. Ability to view high-definition contents in BD-ROM discs may be limited depending on the resolution of your TV.
Graphic planes
Two individual, full HD resolution (1920x1080) graphic planes (layers) are available, on top of the HD video layer. One plane is assigned to video­related, frame accurate graphics (like subtitles), and the other plane is assigned to interactive graphic elements, such as buttons or menus. For both planes, various wipes, fades and scroll effects may be available.
Menu sounds
When you highlight or select a menu option, sounds can be heard such as button clicks or a voice-over explaining the highlighted menu choice.
Multi-page/PopUp Menus
With DVD-Video, playback is interrupted each time a new menu screen is accessed. Due to BD-ROM disc’s ability to preload data from the disc without interrupting playback, a menu can consist of several pages. You can browse through the menu pages or select different menu paths, while the audio and video remain playing in the background.
Interactivity
Certain BD-ROM Discs may contain animated menus and/or trivia games.
User Browsable Slideshows
With BD-ROM Discs, you can browse through vari­ous still pictures while the audio remains playing.

For the best possible surround sound, all the speak­ers other than the subwoofer should be placed at the same distance from the listening position (A).
A Front left speaker (L)/ B Front right speaker (R):
Place the front speakers to the sides of the moni­tor or screen and as flush with the screen surface as possible.
C Center speaker: Place the center speaker above
or below the monitor or screen.
D Surround left speaker (L)/ E Surround right
speaker (R): Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards.
F Subwoofer: The position of the subwoofer is not
so critical, because low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place the sub­woofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce the wall reflections.
