CONNECTING THE PLAYER
HDMI can transmit both audio and video signals over a single cable. If you
have an HDMI capable receiver that can support HDMI audio, you can simply
run an HDMI cable from the player to your receiver and enable HDMI audio
on the receiver (see your receiver’s owners’ manual for more information).
The receiver usually has an HDMI output that you can connect to your TV to
pass the video signal.
HDMI is a wonderful thing. A single cable can transport both audio ANDvideo
from your player to your display. Be aware, however, that HDMI is an
evolving standard, and there could be compatibility issues. A receiver that
supports audio input over HDMI is required.
Some receivers offer HDMI ports solely for video switching. If your receiver
does not have audio input capability, please read the following sections
regarding otherconnection methods.
In order to play multi-channel audio for all formats, the receiver must support
HDMI v1.1 or later. For Blu-ray Disc, a receiver that supports HDMI v1.3 with
decoding capability for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio is preferred.
Please check the specifications of your receiver to ensure that it meets the
requirements.
Due to bandwidth limitations, high resolution audio formats such as Dolby
Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High Resolution and DTS-HD Master
Audio cannot be sent through the coaxial digital audio output. A reduced
resolution version of the same audio track will be output instead. To listen to
high resolution audio formats in their best quality, please use the HDMI
connection if you have a receiver that handles HDMI audio.
Due to copyright restrictions and bandwidth limitations, full resolution audio
from DVDAudio discs cannot be sent through the coaxial or optical digital
audio output. To listen to DVD-Audio in full resolution, please use the HDMI
or analogue audio connections.

1. Insert the USB drive (or cable) into the
USB port on the front of the player.
2. If the drive is to be used for BD-Live™
content it is accessed through the main
menu of the Blu-ray discs when played.
3. To access the content of the USB device
for playback please see the Media
Center section later in this manual.
NOTE: The USB ports are rated to provide a maximum of 5V, 500mA power to
the USB drive. It is sufficient for all USB thumb drives and flash memory card
readers, but may not be sufficient for USB hard disks. It is recommended that
you use a USB hard disk with an externalpower supply.
This unit supports “USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport” devices only.
Most USB thumbs drives, portable hard disk drives and card readers conform
to this device class. Other USB devices such as MP3 players, digital cameras,
and mobile phones may not be compatible.
Supported USB drives must be formatted with the FAT (File Allocation Table)
or FAT32 file system. Drives formatted with NTFS file system supported as read

In some cases, an incompatible USB device may cause the player to stop
responding. If this occurs simply turn off the power, remove the USB device,
and turn the player back on.
The player accesses the USB drive in read and write mode. In order to
minimize the risk of data corruption, it is recommended that you only unplug
the USB device when playback is completely stopped.
