regardless of your Digital Output 
selections (PCM or Bitstream).

 

If your TV is not compatible with 
compressed multi-channel formats (Dolby 
Digital, DTS), the player may output PCM 
2ch downmixed audio even though you 
selected Bitstream (either Re-encoded or 
Unprocessed) in the setup menu.

 

If your TV is not compatible with PCM 
sampling rates over 48kHz, the player

PCM audio even though you set PCM 
Downsampling to

Network Settings

When you connect this player to a

applications and functions such as BD-

LIVE, and upgrade the player's software 

through the network connection. For 

more information, see pages 25~27. 

Instructions for configuring the network 

connection start below.

Configuring your Network 
Connection

Before you begin, contact your ISP 
to find out if your IP address is static 
or dynamic. If it is dynamic, and you 
have a wired or wireless network, 
we recommend using the Automatic 
configuration procedures described 
below. 
If you are connecting to a wired 

network, connect the player to your 

router using a LAN cable before you 

start the configuration procedure. 

If you are connecting to a wireless 

network, disconnect any wired 

network connection before you begin. 

To begin configuring your network
