Blu-ray Disc Features

Blu-ray Discs support the highest quality HD video available in the industry - Large capacity means no compromise on video quality. Furthermore, a Blu-ray Disc has the same familiar size and look as a DVD.

The following Blu-ray Disc features are disc dependant and will vary. Appearance and navigation of features will also vary from disc to disc. Not all discs will have the features described below.

Video highlights

The BD-ROM format supports three highly advanced video codecs, including AVC, VC-1 and MPEG-2.

HD video resolutions are also available:

1920 x 1080 High Definition

• 1280 x 720 High Definition

•

For High-Definition Playback

To view high-definition contents on a Blu-ray Disc, an HDTV (High Definition Television) is required. Some Blu-ray Discs may require you to use the player's HDMI OUT to view high-definition content. The ability to view high-definition content on Blu-ray Discs may be limited depending on the resolution of your TV.

Interactivity

Certain Blu-ray Discs may contain Animated menus and Trivia games.

Subtitles

Depending on what is contained on the Blu-ray Disc, you may be able to select different font styles, sizes, and colors for the subtitles. Subtitles may also be animated, scrolled, or faded in and out.

BD-LIVE

You can use a Blu-ray Disc supporting BD-LIVE to download contents provided by the disc manufacturer through a network connection.

Blu-ray Disc Player Features

Internet@TV

You can download various for-a-fee or free-ofcharge applications through a network connection.

With these, you can access Internet services and content such as news, weather forecasts, stock market quotes, games, movies, and music.

This player can play 3D contents through an HDMI cable.

To implement the 3D effect, connect a 3D device (3D-compliant AV receiver, 3D-compliant TV) to the player using an HDMI cable, and play the 3D content while wearing 3D vision glasses.
