Introduction
Thank you
for
purchasing this Cambridge Audio Azur
75280
Blu-ray
Player. Like all Cambridge Audio products, our Blu-ray players adhere
to
our
three core principles -stunning performance, ease
of
use and
incredible value.
The 752BD features almost universal disc/file compatibility and can
play back
CD,
HDCD
, DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, Super Audio
CD
and
Blu-ray discs including those with 3D content plus most audio and
video file formats from both
USB
connected hard-drives and network
connected
NAS
drivers or servers.
Five WM87
40
2-channel
DAC
s from Wolfson Microelec
tro
nics are
featured giving both a permanent
7.1
and a separate Stereo analog
output.
All
analog outputs are also up-sampled
via
an Analog Devices
DSP
running our proprietary
ATF'M
upsampling and
jitter
suppression
algorithm from Anagram Technologies
to
24
bi
ts
and 192kHz.
This careful audio design ensures
that
the
752BD can reproduce the
dynamics and scale required for modern movie soundtracks whilst also
being able
to
reproduce a genuinely musical performance with either
s
ter
eo or multi-channel music discs.
Twin
HDMI
outputs allow two screens or a screen and a projector
to
be
connected
at
thesame
tim
e.
Both arefully compatible with the
HDMI
1.4
standard for 3D
TV
and deep-colour support and both can receive Audio
Return Channels
(ARC)
from
TVs
that
supportthis feature.
ARC
allows
the
TV
to
become an audio source
to
the
BD
Player allowing
you to listen
to
music or video streaming services
that
your
TV
may
feature
in
the best possible quality when up-sampled and output
by
the
752BD player.
The primary HDMI
output
also features a Marvell
QDEO
scaler with
motion adaptive noise reduction and a host
of
technologies
to
further
improve the picture quality for this outp
ut
from any source. Up-scaling
to
4K
x 2K is possible for
th
e very latest
TVs
that
supportthis
re
solution.
S/ P
DIF
, Toslink and two HDMI inputs (one
of
which also supports
MHL) plus the two
ARC
inputs allow the 752BD to be your digital hub
connecting a wide range
of
audio and video sources all
of
which can
be
up-sampled and up-scaled
by
the 752BD
for
the best possible audio or
audio-visual experience.
An
Ethernet conne
ct
ion is provided for
BD
Liv
e,
Network playback from
UPnP
/
DNLA
servers and
NAS
drives and other interactive features via
the
intern
et
such as Picasa and YouTube. Additionally the 752BD is
supplied with a
USB
Wi
-
Fi
dongle.
The
latestsurround-sound formats are supported including decoding
of
Dolby True
HD
, Dolby Digital Plus,
DTS-HD
Master Audio and
DTS-HD
High Resolution Audio in Stereo,
5.1
or 7.1variants.
In
particularsupport
for the true lossless Dolby True
HD
and
DTS
HD
Ma
ster Audio formats
provides unprecedented audio fidelity from Blu-
ray
discs.
The 752BD is also capable
of
ou
tputtin
g all
of
these formats as
bitstreams over HDMI for decoding in a suitable
AV
Receiver.
L
ast
ly,
the
752BD
features an environmentally friendly low power
(
<0
.5W) standby circuit.
All this proprietary engineering is housed within our low resonance,
acoustically damped chass
is.
A backlit Azur Navigator remote control is
provided, givingfull remote control
of
your Blu-ray player and
if
required
a Cambridge Audio amplifier or
AV
receiver
in
an attractive and easy to
use handset.
Rememberyour 752BD can
on
ly
be asgood as thesystem
it
is connected
to. Please donotcompromise on your
AV
receiverorspeaker
pa
ckage and
always usegood qualityvideo and audio cabling. Naturallywe particularly

BD-ROM compatibility
Since the Blu-ray Disc specifications are new and evolving, some
discs may not play properly depending on the disc type, version and
encoding. It
is
possible
that
a Blu-ray disc manufactured after the
player was manufactured uses certain new features of the Blu-ray Disc
specifications.
To
ensure the best possible viewing experience, the player
may need a firmware or software update from time to time.
Copyright protection
This Product incorporates copy protection technology that is protected
by
U.S.
patents and other intellectual property rights
of
Rovi
Corporation.
The
use
of
Rovi
Corporation's copy protection technology
in
the product
must be authorized
by
Rovi
Corporation. Reverse engineering and
disassembly are prohibited.
Region management information
This player is designed and manufactured
to
respond
to
the region
management information
of
DVD
or
BD
discs. Ifthe region number
of
a
BD-Video or
DVD
disc does not correspond to the region number
of
this
player, this player cannot play the disc.
BD-Video
-This player plays BD-Video with marks that match the code
on
the back
of
the unit (i.e.
A,
B or
C)
.
Discs that have
no
region coding are also playable. These usually have
all 3 region codes
on
the packaging
in
a pyramid.
DVD-Video
-This player plays DVD-Video with marks
that
match the
region code on the back of the unit (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5).
Discs that are encoded for
All
regions are also playable.
Disc care and handling
o
To
keep the disc clean from scratches or fingerprints, handle the disc
by
its edge.
Do
not touch the recording surface.
o
Blu-ray Discs record data
in
very high density and the record layer is
very close to the disc surface.
For
this reason, Blu-ray Discs are more
sensitive to dust and fingerprints than
DVD.
Should
you
encounter
playback problems and see dirty spots
on
the disc surface, clean the
disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the centre out along the
radial direction.
Do
not wipe the disc
in
a circular motion.
o
Do
not
use
record cleaningsprays or solventssuch as benzene, thinner
and anti-static spray.
o
Do
not attach labels or stickers to discs as this may cause the disc to
warp, become imbalanced or too thick, resulting
in
playback problems.
o
Avoid exposing the discs to directsunlight or heat sources.
o
Do
not use the following discs:
-Discs with exposed adhesive from removed stickers or labels.
The
disc may getstuck inside the player.
-Warped or cracked discs.
-Irregularly shaped discs, such as heart or business card shapes.

analogue stereo
The analogue stereo outputs should be used
for
play back
of
CDs,
DVDs
etc in stereo through a conventional amplifier or
AV
receiver with
analogue stereo inputs.
Analogue stereo
is
also usually the best connection method for listening
to
CDs
and otherstereo discs for best possible sound quality. It
is
often a
good idea to connect both the analogue stereo outputs (for
CD
playback)
and digital audio outputs or
HDMI
(for surround sound decoding)
at
the
same time.
To
connect an analogue stereo system to the 752BD, use stereo phono
cables (stereo
2RCA
-
2RCA).
@ Digital audio
The
digital audio outputs should
be
used
to
decode the surround-sound
soundtracks
of
BD/DVDs with an external
AV
Receiver (Note: Digital output
must
be
set
to
"RAW"
in
the Audio setup page).
The
752BD sends
an
undecoded audio bitstream to the
AV
Receiver for decoding into
5.1/7.1
etc.
Note:
The
latest
HD
audio types,
SACD
and

optic cable should
be
used (only one
at
a time).

Note: It
is
also possible to
output
stereo digital audio from
the
Digital
Outputs for recording
on
conventional
CD
-R/MD etc. machines, see
section
on
752BD setup.
@Analogue
2
ch/5.1/7.1
The 752BD
is
also capable
of
decoding Surround-Sound soundtracks
itselfand outputtingthese as analogue Stereo,
5.1
or 7.1 depending
on
the settings
in
the Speaker setup page in the 752BD setup menu.
For
5.1, connect
to
an
AV
receiver or amplified speaker system, use 6 x
phono/RCA cables.
For
7.1, connect
to
an
AV
receiver or amplified speaker system, use 8 x
phono/RCA cables.

HDMI connections

(High-Definition Multi-Media Interface) is a digital connection
that
can carry both audio and video
in
one cable. Direct digital transfer

Diagnostic Video output.
The
7528D
features a composite (CV8S) diagnostic video output.
Optionally
you
can
connect this
to

TV
as well as makil)g an
HDMI
connection. This output can be useful if
you

TV/Monitor
Setting
up
the player
Selecting the best output resolution
For
the latest generation of 1080p, "Full
HD"
or
"True
HD"
TV
displays,
the best output resolution will naturally
be
1080p
.
For
earlier
"HD
Ready"
digital televisions this might
be
720p or 1080i. It is usually best to set
the output of the 7528D to the native resolution
of
the
TV,
consult the
TVs
manual for details of the actual resolution of its panel. Large
TVs
are often
1080p
(1920
x
1080)
but smaller
TVs
are sometimes
720p
(1280
x 720). These are general recommendations
that
work for most
users, but there can
be
exceptions. Advanced users may want to try all
supported resolutions and choose the one that provides the best visual
result.
The
7528D
also supports a special "Source Direct" output mode via its
HDMI
output. This mode is recommended for use with external video
processors or high-end
TVs
with high quality scalers.
In
"Source Direct"
mode, the player works
as
a "transport". It decodes video from the discs
and then sends the
raw
video signal
in
its native resolution and format,
without extra processing, to the external video processor or
TV.
The
actual output resolution thus varies
by
content:
Content Source Direct Output Resolution
PAL
DVD
576i
NTSC
DVD
480i
Most
81u-ray
Movies (film-source)

24Hz
Most

1080i
(video-source)
SACD
and
DVD-Audio

For
both
HDMI
outputs, the following output resolutions are available:
4Kx2K, Auto, 1080p, 1080i,
720p,480p/576p,
480i/576i,
and Source
Direct.
IfAuto
is
selected, the player will determine the output resolution based
on
the best signal resolution
that
the
TV
can
display. It does this
by
reading the
EDID
ofthe
TV
via
the
HDMI
connection,
if
all is well the
TV
will tell the
7528D
the range of video outputs
it
can support and the
7528D will pick the highest one.
The
7528D will then allways scale the
outputto this resolution.
If any of the other resolutions
is
selected the
7528D
will always scale
the output
to
the resolution
you
select. Note that 4K x 2K is a
very
new
standard and only a handful of
TVs
currently support this.
For
most
TVs
selectingthis option will cause the picture to
be
lost.
To
change the output resolution, press the
Res
button
on
the remote to
bring up the Resolution Menu, then press the
...
or
...
buttons
on
the
remote to highlight the desired output, press the Enter button to confirm
and return. Ifyour
TV
does not support the selected resolution,
you
may
see a black screen or
an
error message.
In
this case, try a different
resolution thatyour
TV
can support.
Note:
•
In
case

Media playback from USB Devices
As
well as normal CO's, SACD's, DVD's and BD's the 752BD can play
some music, movies and photo files either from optical datadiscs (such
as
CD-R,
DVD-R
etc.) or external memory such as
USB
flash-drives/
thumb-drives or hard-drives.
Connecting a
USB
Drive
The
752BD
is
equipped with three
USB
2.0 ports,one on the front of the
unit and two
on
the back.
You
may use any
USB
port to plug
in
a
USB
drive loaded with digital music, movies and photo files.
The
USB
ports are rated to provide a maximum
of
5V,
1A
power to the
attached device. This
is
usually sufficient to bus power (i.e. self power)
USB
flash drives and flash memory card readers.
but
may not
be
sufficient for all
USB
hard disks.
Note:
• This unit supports Mass Storage Class Bulk Transport devices only.
Most
USB
thumbs drives, portable hard disk drives and card readers
conform to this device class. Other devices such as MP3 players,
digital cameras, and mobile phones
that
include their own memory
management may not
be
compatible.
• Supported
USB
drives must
be
formatted with the
FAT
(File Allocation
Table),
FAT32
or
NTFS
(New Technology File System) file system.
•
In
some cases, an incompatible device may cause the player to stop
responding. Ifthis occurs simply turn
off
the power, remove the device,
and turn the player back
on
.
• The player accesses the
USB
drive
in
read-only mode.
In
order
to
minimize the risk of data corruption, it
is
recommended that
you
only
unplug the
USB
device when playback has completely stopped.
Network Media Playback
The
752BD can remotely Playback music, photos, and video files stored
on
media devices
that
are connected to the same home net work. Set
the
My
Network selection to
On
in
the Setup Menu. Press the
f;;'r
button
on
the remote
to
bring up the Home Menu, select the Network icon
and press Enter button to show the list
of
available servers and shared
folders.
In
some cases,
you
might need to disable your firewall to allow
the 752BD to see your devices.
The
752BD can perform Network Playback
in
one
of
the following three
ways:
•
As
a digital media player
(DMP):
the 752BDcan actively search, access
and pull content from media servers
on
you
network.
•
As
a digital media renderer (DMR): the 752BD plays content received
('pushed')from a digital media controller
(DMC).
ADMC-capable UPNP/
DNLA
media server
is
required. Plus the control
APP
you
wish to use
which must
be
connected
to
the same network as the server and
752BD. Refer to the server and
APPs
respective user instructions for
correct configuration and operation.
• Accessing a SMB/CIFS client: the player can directly access files
shared
by
computers through SMB/CIFS clients over the network, as
if accessing a local
USB
hard drive. Most computers especially those
installed with Windows, already have an SMB clientembedded. Please
refer to your respective
OS
instructions to set
up
the SMB/CIFS shared
file/folder.
Note:
• A
NAS
is
a network attached storage device
that
provides file-based
data storage services
to
other devices
on
the network. Commercial
products are available
that
often incorporate a UPnP/DNLA Server.
• SMB (Server Message Block) or Cifs (Common Internet File System)
is
mostly known as the folder sharing method of Microsoft Windows. It
does not require
an
extra media server or perform any media format
transcoding.
• Compatibility with local network sharing hardware/software is
on
a
best effort basis with
no
guarantee, due to variations
in
NAS
devices,
media servers and their configurations
