discs cannot be played on the unit.
Do not attach any seal or label to either side (the labeled side or the
recorded side) of a disc.
Do not use irregularly shaped CDs (e.g., heart-shaped or octagonal).
Doing so may result in malfunctions.
Depending on the recording software & the finalization, some recorded
discs (CD-R/RW or DVD±R/RW) may not be playable.
DVD±R/RW and CD-R/RW discs recorded using a personal computer or
a DVD or CD Recorder may not play if the disc is damaged or dirty, or if
there is dirt or condensation on the player’s lens.
If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a
compatible format, there are cases in which it may not play because of
the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check
with the software publisher for more detailed information.)
This player requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical
standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded
DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different
types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or
WMA files) and these require certain pre-existing conditions to ensure
compatible playback.
Customers should note that permission is required in order to download
MP3 / WMA files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right
to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the
copyright owner.
You have to set the disc format option to [Mastered] in order to make the

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
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.
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.
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.

content providers almost unlimited functionality when creating interactive
BD-ROM titles.

Connecting to an Amplifier
Make one of the following connections, depending on the capabilities of
your existing equipment.
Note:
Since many factors affect the type of audio output, see “The unit’s Audio
Output Specifications” on page 17 for details.
Connecting to an Amplifier via 2 Channel Audio Output
Connect the Left and Right 2CH AUDIO OUT jacks on the player to the
audio left and right in jacks on your amplifier, receiver, or stereo system
using audio cables (A).
Connecting to an Amplifier via Digital Audio Output
(Optical or Coaxial)
Connect the player’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to the corresponding in
jack (OPTICAL O or COAXIAL X) on your amplifier. Use an optional digital
(optical O or coaxial X) audio cable. You will need to activate the player’s
digital output. (See “[AUDIO] Menu” on pages 29-30.)
Connecting to an Amplifier via 7.1 Channel Analog
Audio Output
Connect the 7.1CH ANALOG AUDIO OUT (SW, C, FL, FR, SL, SR, SBL
and SBR) jacks on the player to the corresponding 7.1CH ANALOG IN
jacks on your amplifier. You need to set the audio input of your amplifier to
enjoy 7.1 channel surround sound. Refer to your amplifier’s owner’s
manual to set the audio input.
You may need to set the [Speaker Setup] option in the [Setup] menu to
obtain the best surround sound via 7.1CH ANALOG AUDIO OUT

Connecting to an Amplifier via HDMI Output
Connect the player’s HDMI OUT jack to the corresponding in jack on your
amplifier using a HDMI cable (H1). You will need to activate the player’s
digital output. (See “[AUDIO] Menu” on pages 29-30.)
Digital Multi-channel sound
A digital multi-channel connection provides the best sound quality. For this,
you need a multi-channel Audio/Video Receiver that supports one or more
of the audio formats supported by your player. Check the receiver manual
and the logos on the front of the receiver. (PCM Stereo, PCM Multi-Ch,
Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS and/or DTS-HD)
Tip:
Connect the amplifier’s HDMI output jack to HDMI input jack on your TV
using a HDMI cable (H2) if your amplifier has HDMI output jack.
Notes:
• You must select a digital audio output and a maximum sampling
frequency that your Amplifier (or AV receiver) accepts using [SPDIF],
[HDMI] and [Sampling Freq.] options on the [Setup] menu
(see page 29-30).
• With digital audio connection (SPDIF or HDMI), Disc Menu button
sounds of BD-ROM may not be heard if the [SPDIF] or [HDMI] option is
set to [Primary Pass-Thru].
• If the audio format of the digital output does not match the capabilities of
your receiver, the receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or no
sound at all.
• Multi-channel Digital Surround Sound via digital connection can only be
obtained if your receiver is equipped with a Digital Multi-channel
decoder.
• To see the audio format of the current disc in the on-screen display,

Notes:
*1 The secondary and interactive audio may not be included in the output
bitstream if [SPDIF] or [HDMI] option is set to [Primary Pass-Thru].
(Except LPCM Codec : the output always include interactive and
secondary audio.)
*2 This player automatically selects the HDMI audio according to the
decoding capability of the connected HDMI device even though [HDMI]
option is set to [Primary Pass-Thru].
*3 The [PCM Multi-CH]/[Primary Pass-Thru] setting of the [HDMI] option
and [DTS re-encode] setting of the [SPDIF] option cannot be set
together. If you set the [HDMI] option to [PCM Multi-CH] or
[Primary Pass-Thru], the [SPDIF] option is set to [PCM Stereo]
automatically. Also, if you set the [SPDIF] option to [DTS Re-encode],
the [HDMI] option is set to [PCM Stereo] automatically.
*4 The LPCM audio recorded at 192kHz sampling frequency will be
outputted as stereo sound.
*5 On the PCM audio output, the sampling frequency of SPDIF (DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT) is limited to 96 kHz.
*6 If the [HDMI] or [SPDIF] option is set to [DTS re-encode], the audio
output is limited to 48 kHz and 5.1 ch. If the [HDMI] or [SPDIF] option
is set to [DTS re-encode], the DTS Re-encode audio is outputted for
BD-ROM discs, and the original audio is outputted for the other discs
(like [Primary Pass-Thru]).
• If [HDMI] option is set to [PCM Multi-CH] and [SPDIF] option is set to
[Primary Pass-Thru] when the unit plays back Dolby Digital Plus or
TrueHD audio, SPDIF (DIGITAL AUDIO OUT) jack is limited to “PCM
2ch”.
• If the HDMI connection is version 1.3 and Dolby Digital Plus/Dolby
TrueHD is outputted from HDMI OUT jack, SPDIF (DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT) jack is limited to “PCM 2ch” (When the HDMI and SPDIF are
connected simultaneously).
• The audio is outputted as PCM 48 kHz/16 bit for MP3/WMA file and
PCM 44.1kHz/16 bit for Audio CD while playback.
• The Dolby TrueHD audio recorded on some Blu-ray discs consists of
Dolby Digital and TrueHD audio. Dolby Digital audio is output through
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jacks and "DD" displays on the screen if TrueHD
audio is not output (for example, when [HDMI] is set to [PCM Stereo]
and [SPDIF] is set to [Primary Pass-Thru]).
• The analogue 2 channel output connection is always output PCM 2CH
sound.
