USING BD-LIVE FEATURES
20
Some (but not all) BD discs contain additional features
that are made available to players that are connected
to the internet, and have additional memory added.
These additional features may include things like:
- the ability to download new movie trailers,
- additional ‘commentary by actors and directors,
- multperson game play and chat
In order to access BD-Live functions, the player must
be properly configured for BD-Live internet access,
and it must be equipped with additional memory.
1. ADDING BD-LIVE MEMORY TO THE PLAYER
In order to set the player up for BD-Live Internet
Access, perform the following steps:
1) Obtain a 1Gbyte USB Stick. Insert it into a PC
drive, and make sure that it is formatted as FAT32
2) Insert the USB memory stick into the USB slot on
the player.
2. SETTING UP THE PLAYER FOR BD-LIVE
INTERNET ACCESS
In order to set the player up for BD-Live Internet
Access, perform the following steps:
1) In the BD Players main setup menu, go to the
System menu choice; then choose “BD-Live Internet
Access. Be sure that “Limit Access or Always
Allow Acess is checked.
2) Once the USB memory stick has been inserted,
if there is not at least 100Mbyte of free space on
the device, you should choose Clear BD Storage
from the System setup menu.
3) In the BD Players main setup menu, go to the
Network menu choice; Set up the Network IP
addresses per your routers or ISPs recommendations.
NOTE: The ‘Connectivity Testmust pass, or you are
not connected to the internet, and cannot access
BD-Live Content on the web.
3. BD-LIVE NOTES
1) The Broadcom Reference system only supports
the connection of USB memory in order to fulfill
the BD 2.0 1GByte memory requirement.
Any externally connected drive will become the
default storage for BD-Live content, and the internal
storage will be ignored.
2) You must have the BD-Live disc in the player to
play any related (already downloaded) content.
3) Some BD-Live content could expire and will not play.
The user will occasionally need to manually delete
the contents in storage in order to free space.
This can be done from the BD players main setup
menu, under the System submenu item.
(Select Clear BD storage)
The Broadcom Reference system currently only
allows deleting the entire BD storage.
A clock is not used to manage the expiration of
downloaded BD-live content. Instead, time and
expiration of content is managed by the BD-Live
server on the internet.
