Notes on Copyrights  
Important Notice for TV colour  
system  
The colour system of this player differs according to  
currently playing discs.  
Because AACS (Advanced Access Content  
System) is approved as content protection  
system for Blu-ray Disc format, similar to use of  
CSS (Content Scramble System) for DVD format,  
certain restrictions are imposed on playback,  
analog signal output, etc., of AACS protected  
contents. The operation of this product and  
restrictions on this product may vary depending  
on your time of purchase as those restrictions  
may be adopted and/or changed by AACS after  
the production of this product.  
y
1
For example, when the player plays the disc  
recorded in the NTSC colour system, the image is  
output as an NTSC signal.  
Only the multi system colour TV can receive all  
signals output from the player.  
If you have a PAL colour system TV, you will see  
just distorted images when using discs or video  
contents recorded in NTSC.  
y
Furthermore, BD-ROM Mark and BD+ are  
y
additionally used as content protection systems  
for Blu-ray Disc format, which imposes certain  
restrictions including playback restrictions for  
BD-ROM Mark and/or BD+ protected contents.  
To obtain additional information on AACS, BD-  
ROM Mark, BD+, or this product, please contact  
an authorized Customer Service Centre.  
The multi system colour TV changes the colour  
system automatically according to input signals.  
In case that the colour system is not changed  
automatically, turn it off and then on to see  
normal images on screen.  
y
Even if the disc recorded in NTSC colour system  
are well displayed on your TV, these may not be  
recorded correctly on your recorder.  
y
Many BD-ROM/DVD discs are encoded with  
copy protection. Because of this, you should only  
connect your player directly to your TV, not to a  
VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted  
picture from copy-protected discs.

This product incorporates copyright protection  
technology that is protected by U.S. patents  
and other intellectual property rights. Use of  
this copyright protection technology must be  
authorized by Rovi, and is intended for home and

Compatibility Notes  
Because BD-ROM is a new format, certain disc,  
digital connection and other compatibility issues  
are possible. If you experience compatibility  
problems, please contact an authorized  
Customer Service Center.  
y
BD-R/RE, DVD R/RW and CD-R/RW discs  
recorded using a personal computer or a  
DVD or CD Recorder may not play if the  
disc is damaged or dirty, or if there is dirt or  
condensation on the player’s lens.  
This unit allows you to enjoy functions such  
as picture-in-picture, secondary audio and  
Virtual packages, etc., with BD-ROM supporting  
BONUSVIEW (BD-ROM version 2 Profile 1 version  
1.1). Secondary video and audio can be played  
from a disc compatible with the picture-in-  
picture function. For the playback method, refer  
to the instructions in the disc.  
y
If you record a disc using a personal  
computer, even if it is recorded in a  
compatible format, there are cases in which  
it may not play because of the settings of  
the application software used to create the  
disc. (Check with the software publisher for  
more detailed information.)  
y
This player requires discs and recordings to  
meet certain technical standards in order to  
achieve optimal playback quality.  
y
y
Viewing high-definition content and up-  
converting standard DVD content may require a  
HDMI-capable input or HDCP-capable DVI input  
on your display device.  
y
Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to  
these standards. There are many different  
types of recordable disc formats (including  
CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and  
these require certain pre-existing conditions  
to ensure compatible playback.  
Some BD-ROM and DVD discs may restrict the  
use of some operation commands or features.  
y
y
Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD are  
supported with maximum 7.1 channels if you  
use HDMI connection for the audio output of the  
unit.  
Customers should note that permission  
is required in order to download MP3 /  
WMA files and music from the Internet.  
Our company has no right to grant such  
permission. Permission should always be  
sought from the copyright owner.  
y
y
You can use a USB device to store some disc  
related information. The disc you are using will  
control how long this information is retained.  
y
You have to set the disc format option  
to [Mastered] in order to make the discs  
compatible with the LG players when  
formatting rewritable discs. When setting  
the option to Live System, you cannot use  
it on LG player. (Mastered/Live File System :
