Virtual Package

BD VIDEO

Some BD-Video discs are compatible with a function where data is copied to local storage (USB memory device, etc.) and played back along with the primary video as secondary video, secondary audio, subtitles, etc.

This function is called Virtual Package. Virtual Package data is automatically copied to the local storage prior to playback. The playback methods vary depending on the disc. A variety of functions can be enjoyed during playback of BD-Video compatible with Virtual Package, which features data copied to the BD Local Storage separate from the BD Disc.

This player uses a USB memory device for Local Storage.

Connect a USB memory device (USB2.0 256MB or greater) to the BD STORAGE/SERVICE terminal (page 12) on the back of this player.

See the disc manual for required storage space and instructions on copying/playback.

NOTE

If there is insufficient storage space, the data will not be copied. Delete unneeded data or use a new USB memory device.

If a USB memory device containing other data (previously recorded) is used, the video and audio may not play back properly.

If the USB memory device is disconnected from this player during playback of Virtual Package, playback of the disc will stop.

See page 38 for deletion of the Virtual Package data copied to the USB memory device.
