Blu-ray Disc CompatibilityBlu-ray Disc is a new and evolving format. Accordingly, disc compatibility issues are possible. Not all discs are compatible and not every disc will play back. For additional information, refer to the Compliance and Compatibility Notice section of this Manual. If you encounter compatibility problems, please contact the SAMSUNG customer care center. This Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player (BD-P1400) supports only the BD-ROM Profile 1 version 1.0 specification. If you want to play later version discs, you may need to update player's firmware. Please refer to http://www.samsung.com/global/register or contact SAMSUNG customer care center.
M Playback may not work for some types of discs, or when specific operations, such as angle change and aspect ratio adjustment, are being performed. Information about the discs is written in detail on the box. Please refer to this if necessary.
Do not allow the disc to become dirty or scratched. Finger prints, dirt, dust, scratches or deposits of cigarette smoke on the recording surface may make it impossible to use the disc for playback.
When a BD-Java title is played, loading may take longer than a normal title, or some functions may perform slowly.
