Depending on how the studios organise their BD-Live contents, some Blu-ray

discs may start downloading BD-Live content when playback starts; some

have a BD-Live selection on its main menu; some may show a prompt to ask

whether you would like to start downloading; and some may ask you to sign

up for a membership or account. Please follow the instructions that come with

the disc to enjoy BD-Live contents.
Your Internet connection speed, the overall Internet traffic situation and

the capacity of the BD-Live content servers can all affect how fast BD-

Live content can be downloaded. If you encounter slow downloading or

intermittent playback, please play the disc without accessing the BD-Live

features, or try again at a different time.
When you use the BD-Live feature, the player or disc ID and your IP

(Internet Protocol) address may be sent to the content provider via the

Internet. Generally, no personally identifiable information is sent. However

technologies exist to match your IP address to a certain geographical area

or service provider. Your Internet service provider also has the knowledge

of who is using which IP address. If the BD-Live content provider requires

you to login using a membership or account, the content provider will

have access to your membership or account information. Please check

with your Internet service provider and the BD-Live content providers for

their privacy policy.
You can also choose to restrict BD-Live access using the player’s Setup Menu.

Output resolution

If you would like to change the output resolution, you may do so by

pressing the Res/TV Type button on the remote control:
1. Make sure the video cable is properly connected.
2. Turn on the TV. Make sure the correct input is selected.
3. Make sure that the player is turned on. Although the output resolution

can be changed

"

on the fly

"

, it is recommended that you stop playback

and take out the disc before changing the output resolution. Press the

Res/TV Type button. A

"

Resolution Setting

"

menu appears on the TV

screen. In case the TV does not support the current resolution and you

cannot see the

"

Resolution Setting

"

menu, the current resolution is

also displayed on the front panel.

4. Use the

buttons to select the new output resolution. Pressing

the Res/TV Type button cycles through the available output resolutions.

The new resolution is displayed on the front panel just in case you

cannot see the

"

Resolution Setting

"

menu (if it is incompatible with your

TV).

5. Press the Enter button to apply the selected output resolution. Or, if

you do not want to change the output resolution, press the button.

The following output resolutions are available:
PAL output via HDMI 1 or 2– Auto, 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 576p, 576i, Source

Direct.
NTSC output via HDMI 1 or 2 – Auto, 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p, 480i, Source

Direct.
PAL output via Analog (component) – 1080p*, 1080i, 720p, 576p, 576i.
NTSC output via Analog (component) – 1080p*, 1080i, 720p, 480p,

480i.
* When 1080p is selected with Analog output selected as the primary

video output, HDMI output resolution will be 1080p and component

output resolution will be 1080i.
NNoottee::
• Some TV sets do not support one more output resolutions (particularly

1080p). If an incompatible output resolution is selected, you will get a

blank screen or an error message. In this case please select an output

resolution that is supported by the TV.

• In case you are not able to get a picture using the HDMI or component

output, please connect the player to the TV using the composite video

output, then use the Setup menu to adjust the player settings.

• Video up-conversion over the component output is only available for

unencrypted discs such as home video and consumer-created

contents. Most commercially pressed DVD discs are CSS-encrypted and

will be limited to 480i/480p resolution. This restriction applies to the

component output only. The HDMI output is protected with HDCP and

has no such restriction.

TV system selection

The 651/751BD can be set to output all video as PAL or NTSC or output

the video in the same format it was recorded in (Multi). Some TVs only

support PAL or NTSC and not both so forcing the output type to one or the

other can be useful.
Press and hold the Res/TV Type button on the remote control to cycle the

video output to PAL, NTSC or

"

Multi

"

system. The TV screen displays the

selected system name.
Some points to keep in mind:
• When the video output is set to PAL or NTSC, the player will convert the

disc content if different to the selected system.

• When the video output is set to

"

Multi

"

, the player will not perform

system conversion and will output the video in its native format on the

disc. The

"

Multi

"

mode should only be used if your TV supports both

NTSC and PAL systems.

• Some TV sets only support one of the PAL or NTSC systems. If the wrong

output is selected, the TV may not display a picture. In this case keep

holding the Res/TV Type button until a supported system is selected.

• The output system selected with the Res/TV Type button will be

remembered when the player is turned off. The output system selection

can also be done by setting the

"

TV System

"

item in the

"

Video Setup

"

section of the player’s Setup Menu.

Viewing pictures on DVD-Audio discs

Some DVD-Audio discs contain static pictures, such as photos of the band

or narration of the album. When a DVD-Audio track is playing, you may use

the Page and Page buttons to select the picture.
NNoottee:: Availability of static pictures depends on the DVD-Audio disc.

Pure Audio mode

You can enjoy higher quality audio by turning off the video processing and

output. The Pure Audio mode reduces any potential interference between

the video and audio signals.
1. Press the Pure Audio button on the remote control to turn off video

and enter Pure Audio mode. Video output will be turned off.

2. Press the Pure Audio button again to resume video and cancel Pure

Audio mode.

NNoottee::
• Pure Audio mode is automatically cancelled when the unit is switched

off or when playback is stopped.

• Since HDMI carries audio together with video, the HDMI output cannot

be completely turned off. A black screen (inactive video but sync is still

present) is transmitted instead to minimize any potential interference.

Shuffle

When playing a CD or SACD, press the Blue button on the remote control

to activate the Shuffle and Random modes. Each press of the Blue button

switches the playback mode in the following sequence: Shuffle , Random

and Normal.
