Notes on Copyrights

yy Because AACS (Advanced Access Content

System) is approved as content protection system for Blu-ray Disc format, similar to use of CSS (Content Scramble System) for DVD format, certain restrictions are imposed on playback, analog signal output, etc., of AACS protected contents. 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.

yy Furthermore, BD-ROM Mark and BD+ are additionally used as content protection systems for Blu-ray Disc format, which imposes certain restrictions including playback restrictions for BD-ROM Mark and/or BD+ protected contents. To obtain additional information on AACS, BDROM Mark, BD+, or this product, please contact an authorized Customer Service Centre.

yy Many BD-ROM/DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect your player directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected discs.

yy This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights. Use of this copyright protection technology must be

authorized by Rovi, and is intended for home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorized by Rovi. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.

yy Under the U.S. Copyright laws and Copyright laws of other countries, unauthorized recording, use, display, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, BD-ROM discs, DVDs, CDs and other materials may subject you to civil and/ or criminal liability.

Important Notice for TV colour system

The colour system of this player differs according to currently playing discs.

For example, when the player plays the disc recorded in the NTSC colour system, the image is output as an NTSC signal.

Only the multi system colour TV can receive all signals output from the player.

yy If you have a PAL colour system TV, you will see just distorted images when using discs or video contents recorded in NTSC.

yy The multi system colour TV changes the colour system automatically according to input signals. In case that the colour system is not changed automatically, turn it off and then on to see normal images on screen.

yy Even if the disc recorded in NTSC colour system are well displayed on your TV, these may not be recorded correctly on your recorder.

>>Caution

yy Watching a 3D content for a long period time may cause dizziness or tiredness.

yy It is not recommended to watch a movie in 3D mode for infirm, child and pregnant woman.

yy If you are experiencing headache, tiredness or dizziness while viewing contents in 3D, it is strongly recommended to stop the playback and rest until you feel normal.

,,Note

yy Depending on the conditions of the recording equipment or the CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW) disc itself, some CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW) discs cannot be played on the unit.

yy Depending on the recording software & the finalization, some recorded discs (CD-R/RW, DVD±R/RW, BD-R/RE) may not be playable.

yy BD-R/RE, 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.

yy 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.)

yy This player requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality.

yy 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.

yy 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.

yy You have to set the disc format option to [Mastered] in order to make the discs compatible with the LG players when formatting rewritable discs. When setting

the option to Live System, you cannot use it on LG player. (Mastered/Live File System : Disc format system for windows Vista)

About the “7” Symbol Display

“7” may appear on your TV display during operation and indicates that the function explained in this owner’s manual is not available on that specific media.

Compatibility Notes

yy Because BD-ROM is a new format, certain disc, digital connection and other compatibility issues are possible. If you experience compatibility problems, please contact an authorized Customer Service Center.

yy This unit allows you to enjoy functions such as picture-in-picture, secondary audio and

Virtual packages, etc., with BD-ROM supporting BONUSVIEW (BD-ROM version 2 Profile 1 version 1.1). Secondary video and audio can be played from a disc compatible with the picture-in- picture function. For the playback method, refer to the instructions in the disc.

yy Viewing high-definition content and upconverting standard DVD content may require a HDMI-capable input or HDCP-capable DVI input on your display device.

yy Some BD-ROM and DVD discs may restrict the use of some operation commands or features.

yy Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD are supported with maximum 7.1 channels if you use HDMI connection for the audio output of the unit.

yy You can use a USB device to store some disc related information, including downloaded online content. The disc you are using will control how long this information is retained.
