No picture is displayed or picture is not output in high definition when playing BDs.

This player supports Macrovision analog copy protection technology. With some TVs (such as with built-in video deck), the picture will not be displayed properly when the copy protected DVD title is played. This is not a malfunction.

If the player and TV are connected via a DVD recorder/video deck, etc., the picture will not be displayed properly due to analog copy protection. Connect the player and TV directly.

With some content protected discs, it may not be possible to output the video signals from the VIDEO output terminals, the S-VIDEOoutput terminal or the COMPONENT VIDEO output terminals. In this case, connect using an HDMI cable (page 14).
