Enjoying BONUSVIEW or BD-LIVE
BD VIDEO
This Player is compatible with BD-Video BONUSVIEW
and BD-LIVE.
When using BD-Video discs compatible with
BONUSVIEW, you can enjoy such functions as
secondary video (picture in picture) and secondary
audio. With BD-Video discs supporting BD-LIVE,
special video images and other data can be
downloaded from the Internet.
Data recorded on BD video and downloaded from BD-
LIVE is stored on the USB memory device (external
memory). To enjoy these functions, connect a USB
memory device (minimum 1 GB capacity, 2 GB or
greater recommended) supporting USB 2.0 High
Speed (480 Mbit/s) to the USB port on this Player’s
rear panel. For connections when using a wireless
LAN adaptor, see “Connecting to the LAN (10/100)
terminal” (page 11). Also, during BD-LIVE operations,
do not connect a USB memory device to the USB port
on this Player’s front panel.
When you insert or remove a USB memory device, be sure
•
to turn the main power off.
To recall data stored in the USB memory device, first insert
•
the disc media that was being used at the time the data
was downloaded (if a different disc is loaded, the data
stored on the USB memory device cannot be played).
If a USB memory device containing other data (previously
•
recorded) is used, the video and audio may not play back
properly.
If the USB memory device is disconnected from this player
•
during playback, playback of the disc will stop. Do not
disconnect the USB memory device while playback is in
progress.
Some time may be required for the data to load (read/
•
write).
CAUTION
It may not be possible to use the BONUSVIEW and
•
BD-LIVE functions if there is insufficient space on the
USB memory device. In this case, refer to “USB Memory
Management” on page 24 for erasing the Virtual Package
data and the BD-LIVE data in the USB memory device.
NOTE
Operation of USB memory devices is not guaranteed.
•
Playback of BD-LIVE function data differs depending on
•
the disc used. For details, consult the user instructions
supplied with the disc.
To enjoy the BD-LIVE function, a network connection and
•
settings are required (pages 11 and 22).
For conditions and restrictions regarding Internet
•
connections using the BD-LIVE function, see the section
“BD Internet Access” (page 22).
BD-LIVE is a function that provides for automatic
•
connection to the Internet. Discs supporting the BD-LIVE
function may send ID codes identifying this player and the
disc to the contents provider via the Internet.
The unit can be set to prevent automatic connection to the
•
Internet. For instructions on this setting, see the section
“BD Internet Access” (page 22).
When USB memory devices are connected to both the
•
USB ports on the player’s front and rear panels, the device
that was connected first is used for the BONUSVIEW and
BD-LIVE functions, while the device that was connected
last is used for file playback and software updating.
Secondary video playback
BD-Video that includes secondary audio and video
compatible with Picture in Picture can be played back
with secondary audio and video simultaneously as a
small video in the corner.
