Sharp cannot guarantee playback compatibility for all self-recorded BD-discs because Blu-ray is a new and evolving format. The playback compatibility will be affected by your choice of BD-recorder, BD-disc and BD-burning software. Please always ensure you are using the latest software versions on all units and contact the individual manufacturers for further help if required.

To avoid inconveniences, please check the playback compatibility of your self-recorded disc before you purchase this BD-player. For maximum playback compatibility of self-recorded BD-discs Sharp recommends that the BDMV/BDAV standards are used. If a playback issue occurs after purchase, please download the latest software version for your BD-player from the Sharp internet page or ask your Sharp-Dealer. This BD-player uses the latest technology available at the time of development and cannot guarantee support for future enhancements or changes to the standard.

*2 About the JPEG file format

There may be some files that cannot be played even if they are in JPEG format.

Moving image files as well as Motion JPEG format files cannot be played, even though they are JPEG files.

Other files that cannot be played back.

You may not be able to play some still images you have processed (rotated or saved by overwriting other images you have imported from the Internet or e-mail).

You may experience one or more of the following symptoms when playing files.

It may take some time to play files depending on the number of folders, number of files and volume of data involved.

EXIF information will not be displayed. EXIF stands for Exchangeable Image File Format, and is a standard for storing interchange information in image files, especially those using JPEG compression. (Refer to http://exif.org for more information.)

*3 About the MP3 file format

MP3 files are audio data compressed in the MPEG1/2 Audio layer-3 file format. “MP3 files” have “.mp3” as extensions. (Some files that have “.mp3” extensions or files that have not been recorded in MP3 format will produce noise or cannot be played.)

Playing the MP3 file format

The MP3 files are not played in the order they were recorded.

It is recommended to record data at a lower speed as data recorded at a fast speed can produce noise and may not be able to be played.

The more folders there are, the longer the reading time.

Depending on the folder tree, reading MP3 files can take time.

The playing time may not be correctly displayed during MP3 file playback.

The following files cannot be played on this player.

When both Audio CD [CD-DA] format and JPEG/ MP3 file formats are recorded on a disc. (The disc is recognised to be an Audio CD [CD-DA] only tracks in Audio CD [CD-DA] format are played back.)

Multi-session discs cannot be played.
