03 Note

Network connection

Devices formatted with a file system other than the above cannot be used. Such devices may however be usable if they are formatted from the player.

External storage devices may not be recognized if they contain multiple partitions.

Some external storage devices may not operate with this player.

Operation of external storage devices (USB memory devices, external hard disks, etc.) is not guaranteed.

Connecting the USB (external storage) device

BD-LIVE functions such as downloading movie trailers or additional audio and subtitle languages and playing on-line games can be enjoyed over the Internet. The player’s software can also be updated over the Internet (page 51). Connect an Ethernet hub (or a router with hub functionality) that is connected to the Internet to the player.

Be sure to use a 100BASE-TX compatible Ethernet hub or router.

Connecting via an Ethernet hub

The player can be connected to an Ethernet hub using a LAN cable.

Caution

Be sure to turn the player’s power off before connecting or disconnecting external storage devices.

Use empty external storage devices (on which nothing is stored).

When using an external hard disk as the external storage device, be sure to turn on the hard disk’s power before turning on the player’s power.

If the external storage device is write-protected, be sure to disable the write-protection.

When connecting the USB cable, hold onto the plug, set the plug in the proper direction for the port and insert it horizontally.

Placing excessive loads on the plug may result in poor contact, making it impossible to write data on the external storage device.

The player is equipped with an internal storage. This internal storage cannot be used when an external storage device is connected.

When a USB memory device or external hard disk is connected and the player’s power is turned on, do not unplug the power cord.
