• When outputting DVD content or PlayStation
®
3 format
software in SD resolution, only discs recorded in the PAL
standard will definitely be playable. You may not be able to
play discs recorded for other standards (such as NTSC) on
this system (unless an NTSC compatible TV is used).
• When playing PlayStation
®
3 format software in HD resolution,
a TV that supports video playback at 59.94 Hz is required.

Discs that have not been finalised cannot be played.
Notices
• Use only circular-shaped discs with the system. Do not use
irregularly-shaped discs (for example, heart- or star-shaped
discs). Using irregularly-shaped discs may cause a
malfunction.
• Do not use damaged, re-shaped or repaired discs. Use of
such discs may cause a malfunction.
• When using an 8 cm disc, insert the disc in the system without
an adaptor.
• The audio CD playback feature of this system is designed to
conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Some record
companies have started marketing music discs encoded with
copyright protection technologies. Some of these music discs
do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable
on this system.
• A DualDisc is a dual-sided disc that combines a DVD side
and an audio side. Note that the audio side is not guaranteed
to play because this type of disc does not conform to the
specifications required for an audio Compact Disc (CD).
• If a device that is not compatible with the HDCP (High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection) standard is connected
to the system using an HDMI cable, video or audio cannot be
output from the system.
• When the PS3
™
system is connected to a TV using a
component AV cable, analogue high-definition output is
restricted to comply with the copyright protection technology
used by Blu-ray (AACS). BD video software (BD-ROM) and
BDs recorded with copyright-protected video content are
output at interlaced standard definition (SD) resolution.
• When you use the AV MULTI OUT connector of the system to
connect to a TV, copyright-protected video from a BD or from
video files may be output at resolutions lower than 1080p.
Also, these types of video will be output at resolutions of 576p
or lower if recorded at 1080i (50 Hz) or 720p (50 Hz).
